AI Policy

Use of AI in the Workplace In the current digital age, there is an increasing desire to use AI in order to make our lives and work spaces more efficient. At the time of this writing, there is too much unknown about how AI programs for therapists are able to verify and secure client data, or what the data will be used for by the third party. Most involve recording sessions and then generate notes from the recording, or require to enter information into a third party application or program so that the information required can be generated. This leaves client Protected Health Information vulnerable to outside interests. To that end, Outside of the Box Counseling will not be using AI programs to assist in completing notes, formulating treatment plans, or any other aspect of completing client related paperwork. If a therapist is found to be using AI generated programs to complete paperwork without the expressed consent of the office as well as the client(s) involved, it will result in disciplinary action up to and including termination.
