Starting college is an exciting milestone, but it can also be one of life’s biggest transitions. Between moving away from home, adjusting to a new environment, managing coursework, and building new relationships, it’s not uncommon for students to experience increased stress, anxiety, or other mental health challenges.

For some students, an Emotional Support Animal (ESA) can provide comfort and stability during this transition. But many students—and their families—aren’t sure how ESA accommodations work in a college setting.

Heading to college this fall? Learn how Emotional Support Animals may help students, how ESA accommodations work in campus housing, and what to know before requesting an ESA letter.

Most conversations about AI and mental health seem to fall into two camps right now: people either avoid the topic entirely or they strongly oppose the idea of using AI for anything emotionally related.

As a therapist, I think both reactions miss an important reality: people are already using AI for mental health purposes whether clinicians are comfortable with it or not.

They’re venting to it, asking relationship questions, processing anxiety, looking for validation, organizing thoughts, and trying to feel less alone. At this point, AI has already become part of how many people are navigating emotional distress and self-reflection.

So instead of pretending people won’t use AI this way, I think we need more nuanced conversations about how to use it carefully, thoughtfully, and with a clear understanding of what AI can (and cannot) provide.

Getting married is an exciting milestone, but it also marks the beginning of a new chapter that comes with its own adjustments. Even couples who have dated for years often discover that married life brings new responsibilities, expectations, and stressors.

The good news? Struggling with these changes doesn’t mean something is wrong with your relationship. In fact, learning how to navigate challenges together early on can help create a healthier, more resilient marriage.

Artificial intelligence tools are becoming more common in everyday life, including in how people process thoughts, ask questions, or reflect on personal experiences. As this shift happens, it raises an important question: What happens to the information you share with AI?

When sensitive information is shared outside of a protected professional relationship, confidentiality may not apply. Therapy is one of the spaces where confidentiality is clearly defined and legally protected. AI tools don’t offer that same structure. It’s easy to forget how important privacy is until you really need it.
