  • AI progress notes are great when subpoenaed
    Mar 30 2026

    Psychologists love AI notetakers, we have seem a boom in their usage. They are fast and efficient, and mostly pretty reliable.

    What they don't have is discretion. Psychologists notes are already so long that they typically dont read them. Long narratives, interesting but irrelevant factoids, and opinion dressed up as reality.

    Lawyers subpoena our notes routinely on the off chance they will find something juicy.

    Ai notetakers make the odds of that happening much higher

  • Using simulation in Psychotherapy Training: What can we learn from the man who played Trump
    Mar 25 2026

    Deliberate practice relies on the ability to do something over and over again until you get it right.

    In Medicine, as in psychotherapy it can be hard to "practice" without hurting someone. Doctors practice on cadavers, pig hearts and all many of simulated flesh, for us it can be much harder.

    In this video, Aaron highlights some thoughts from the "man who played Trump" in debate prep for Kamala Harris. Can practice debating teach therapists anything about how to refine our skills ?
