Curious about AI but unsure how to use it responsibly in a helping profession? This interactive 1-hour lab is designed for coaches, counselors, and mental health practitioners who want practical ways to use AI for support tasks—without compromising confidentiality, ethics, or clinical judgment.
This is not a lecture-style class. You’ll build a reusable “AI Practice Kit” (Persona + DNA + Playbook) and use it to create one finished deliverable you can use right away.
What we’ll cover:
In this session you’ll learn how to:

Use ChatGPT settings and basic habits to reduce risk and protect privacy
Create your AI Practice Kit: Persona (your role, audience, boundaries), DNA (tone, values, language preferences, Playbook (your workflow, safety rules, and output preferences)

Add a short sample of your own writing (de-identified) so AI can better match your tone
Use voice input to capture ideas quickly and turn them into clean drafts
Search chats to reuse your best prompts and save time
Apply the Practice Kit to a real “project” (choose one): client worksheet / reflection prompts, between-session message templates, role-play scripts for difficult conversations. group session outline or psychoeducation handout

What you’ll leave with
You’ll walk away with:

A copy/paste AI Practice Kit you can reuse for any future prompt
A simple method for de-identifying information and staying within scope
One completed draft deliverable tailored to your voice and practice style

Who this is for

Coaches, counselors, therapists, case managers, and other helping professionals
Anyone who wants to use AI for writing, planning, and communication support—while keeping boundaries clear

What to bring

A laptop (recommended)
One short sample of your writing you’re comfortable sharing without identifying client information (a de-identified email, handout paragraph, or script works well)
