Revolutionizing Mental Health with AI and VR

As technology rapidly advances, what does the future hold for mental health care? In this insightful conversation, Dr. Sharnell Myles and Terrance Williams explore the evolving role of tools like virtual reality and AI in therapy. They emphasize that while technology can enhance treatment, it cannot replace the vital human connection needed for true healing.

They discuss the ongoing stigma around mental health—particularly for men—and the importance of creating tailored resources to encourage men to seek help. Highlighting men’s preference for purpose-driven, goal-oriented therapy, they note how VR can uniquely engage this group. Ultimately, they agree that despite technological progress, face-to-face interaction remains essential for effective mental health care. The interview ends on a note of cautious optimism about responsibly integrating technology while preserving the human touch.
