FREE AI Mental Health Training Resources
Over the past year, our team at the Sentio Marriage and Family Therapy program in California has been researching how people actually use AI for mental health support, and the numbers are staggering. This is not a future scenario. It is happening now, at massive scale, and yet most clinicians have never been trained to work with it safely, ethically, and effectively.
Our Chief Academic Officer, Dr. Alexandre Vaz, created a suite of free AI Mental Health resources to help therapists, students, supervisors, and educators respond to this moment. It includes full recorded workshops, presentation slides, clinical handouts, and prompt templates. The materials are based on the Sentio Online Marriage and Family Therapy (MFT) program in California, and draw from Essentials of Deliberate Practice book series published with the American Psychological Association that offer structured, practical frameworks for integrating AI into clinical training and client care safely and ethically.
This on-demand product gives you full access to Sentio’s AI in Mental Health resources designed to help you safely use AI tools like ChatGPT as a clinical thinking and supervision support.
Included
Video trainings
Slide decks (PDFs)
Course handouts + materials
Topics Covered
How LLMs actually work + what’s changing in mental health
Risks, ethics, safety guardrails, and hallucination-spotting
AI for safe clinical brainstorming and between-session integration with clients
