Using AI Safely in Your Therapy Practice ft. Samantha Schalk

AI is everywhere in private practice right now, from note-takers, chatbots, scribing tools… you name it.

But how do you actually know what's helpful, what's hype, and what you need to think through first? 🤔

This week, Uriah sits down with Samantha Schalk, founder of Guardian Clinical Essentials, to talk through exactly that. With 20+ years in behavioral health (and a practice of her own), Samantha turns confusing compliance jargon into stuff you can actually use — no law degree required.

What you'll learn:

The PHI myth almost every therapist believes (spoiler: removing a client's name doesn't make it "de-identified")Why a website that says "HIPAA compliant" isn't proof of anything — and what you actually need on fileWhy chasing HIPAA "perfection" is the wrong goal, and what to focus on instead
