The Future of Therapy: How AI Tools are ...

Lisa Mustard
About this episode

In this episode I’m thrilled to share not one, but two incredible conversations about how AI is changing the game for therapists. First, I sit down with Alexander Anastasin, the founder of Yung-Sidekick, a cutting-edge AI platform designed to help mental health professionals streamline their session notes and reduce administrative burdens. Alex shares how Yung-Sidekick automates progress notes, treatment plans, and more—all while maintaining privacy and HIPAA compliance.

 Plus, Alex is offering a special promotion for listeners! Use the code LISA20 to get 20% off your first purchase with Yung-Sidekick. 

Later, I chat with Dr. Moreen Rubin, a psychologist and group practice owner, who gives us her firsthand experience using AI tools like Yung-Sidekick in her practice. She talks about the time it’s saved her and her team, how it’s improved the quality of her notes, and how AI is enhancing—not replacing—the human connection in therapy.

If you’re a therapist looking to cut down on paperwork, reduce burnout, and spend more time doing what you love, this episode is for you. We dive into the practical ways AI can improve your workflow, save time, and ultimately enhance your client care. Tune in to hear how AI is shaping the future of therapy and how you can benefit from it in your own practice.
