  Gen z is using AI tools for mental health support. While helpful, tech can't replace the empathy and depth of human connection needed for true healing. Here's what psychologist has to say.

The article from Moneycontrol discusses the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in supporting the mental health of youngsters, with insights from psychologist Kamna Chhibber. AI-powered tools, such as chatbots and mental health apps, are increasingly used to provide immediate support, personalized therapy, and coping strategies for issues like anxiety and depression. While these tools can offer accessible and stigma-free mental health support, Chhibber emphasizes that they should complement, not replace, human interaction and professional therapy. She highlights the importance of a balanced approach where AI aids in self-awareness and management but underscores the necessity of human therapists for deeper emotional connections and complex mental health issues. The article also touches on the potential of AI to bridge gaps in mental health services, especially in regions with limited access to professionals, but stresses the need for careful integration and regulation to ensure effectiveness and safety.
