Check before you use it

Write the risk and crisis wording yourself and read every template against your professional code. Use them as templates only: never paste a real enquiry or anyone's details into the AI tool, and answer any message that mentions risk personally and promptly.

When not to use AI for this

A message that mentions risk, harm or crisis needs your own immediate reply, not a template or an AI draft.

Questions

How should a therapist reply to a new client enquiry?

Promptly, warmly and briefly: thank them, give availability, fees and how a first session works, and say how to book. Leave discussion of their situation for the first conversation.

Is it safe to use AI to answer therapy enquiries?

Use it to write templates, not to answer real messages. Never paste someone's enquiry into an AI tool, and reply personally to anything that mentions risk.
