Frequently Asked Questions

Is the AI voice agent appropriate for mental health callers?

Yes. The voice, pacing, and language are specifically designed for mental health contexts. It uses trauma-informed communication principles, never rushes callers, and validates their decision to reach out. Crisis situations trigger immediate human intervention.

Can the voice agent match callers with the right therapist?

Yes. It asks about concerns, preferred therapy approach, therapist gender preference, insurance, and scheduling needs. It then suggests available therapists who match those criteria and books the first session.

How does the AI handle crisis calls?

Any indication of active crisis, self-harm, or suicidal ideation triggers an immediate protocol: the AI provides the 988 Lifeline number, offers to connect the caller directly, and sends an alert to your clinical team. It never hangs up on a caller in distress.
