Important Notice, Disclaimers, & Disclosure

This Therapist in the Loop website (the “Website”) and newsletter are intended for registered mental health professionals only. The Website, newsletter and content presented through both are provided for educational and informational purposes only. They do not provide therapy, clinical guidance, diagnosis, treatment recommendations, legal, regulatory, or privacy advice, and they do not establish a therapist-client, consultant-client, or any other professional relationship. Therapist in the Loop may publish on the Website or in the newsletter educational content, commentary, and resources related to AI and mental health, and may also refer to related tools, products, or services where relevant. Such references should not be understood as clinical, legal, regulatory, or privacy advice.

The content on the Website and newsletter includes short, research-based summaries, sometimes condensed into a single sentence. Because these summaries are intentionally brief, they may omit important context, including study design, sample, setting, effect size, uncertainty, limitations, and applicability to a particular client, clinic, or jurisdiction. A concise summary should be treated as a starting point for learning, not as a substitute for direct review of the original source, clinical judgment, consultation, supervision, or applicable professional guidance. A finding that is interesting, promising, or statistically significant is not automatically ready for clinical use.

You remain responsible for your own professional judgment and for complying with all applicable laws, regulations, ethical standards, and professional requirements, including those of your regulatory body or professional association, as well as privacy, security, and data-governance obligations such as OPQ/CPA requirements, PIPEDA, Quebec’s Act Respecting the Protection of personal information in the Private Sector (as amended by Law 25), HIPAA, GDPR, and local data-residency rules. When considering, adopting, or implementing AI tools or workflows, consult your regulatory body, privacy or security officers, and legal counsel as appropriate.

Nothing on this site should be relied on as a standard of care or as a substitute for individualized clinical decision-making. Before applying anything in practice, readers should consult the original source material, consider the broader evidence base, and assess relevance to their own population, setting, obligations, and jurisdiction. For issues involving client safety, crisis, diagnosis, treatment, privacy, or legal compliance, appropriate professional and jurisdiction-specific guidance should always be sought.

Mention of specific products, platforms, or services does not constitute endorsement. The views expressed are solely those of the authors and do not represent the positions or policies of the Ordre des psychologues du Quebec, any other regulatory body, employer, or institution.
