We surveyed 1,300+ therapists to understand the challenges your peers are facing today—and what the next five years may bring.

In the new Future of Therapy report, you’ll find:

  • AI’s evolving role in clinical and administrative work

  • Why 82% of therapists report burnout (and what’s helping)

  • Systemic barriers to access & equity impacting clients

  • The momentum toward whole-person care

These insights reflect real-world experiences from clinicians and spotlight what needs to change to build a better future for mental healthcare.

Really appreciative of the scope here—hearing from 1,300+ clinicians gives this teeth. What struck me most wasn’t just the burnout stat, but that the “what’s helping” often seems to be small, systematic shifts: protected documentation blocks, clearer team handoffs, and lightweight automation for admin load.

On the AI front, I’m seeing the most promise in augmenting admin tasks (intake, eligibility checks, summaries) with transparent workflows and explicit client consent—less “flashy,” more “freeing.” The access & equity section also resonated; hybrid care plus community partnerships can widen the front door, but the digital divide is still real—device access and bandwidth coaching matter as much as scheduling.

For those experimenting with AI, I’d be curious as to where you’ve see that it truly saved time without compromising rapport or documentation quality?
