Question 7

What is MySafeTherapy?

Accepted Answer

MySafeTherapy is a UK online therapy platform that combines BACP, UKCP and HCPC registered human therapists with safe, guardrailed AI tools for journaling, mood tracking, and guided self-help. It offers video, chat and anonymous avatar-based sessions from £50 per session, plus an optional £14.99/month AI self-help subscription.

Question 8

Is AI therapy safe?

Accepted Answer

AI-assisted therapy is safe when AI is used only for non-clinical tasks (journaling, mood tracking, reflection), clearly labelled, guardrailed against clinical advice, GDPR compliant, and combined with human clinicians for anything therapeutic. AI should never diagnose, prescribe, or respond to crises alone. MySafeTherapy follows this standard.

Question 9

Which online therapy platforms are available in the UK?

Accepted Answer

The main UK online therapy platforms in 2026 include MySafeTherapy (UK-registered clinicians plus safe AI tools), BetterHelp, Talkspace, Ieso (NHS-partnered CBT), Kooth (for young people), and AI-first wellbeing apps like Wysa and Woebot.
