Thanks for coming to check out my Sophia P. Supervisor Demo
In this 16-minute video, you’ll see how my custom chatbot, Sophia P. Supervisor, responds to a stressful clinical dilemma based on a real case. You’ll also see how the free version of Chat responds to the same prompt.
This is a practical demonstration of the difference between a tool trained specifically for clinical supervision and a general AI model. As you watch, notice the differences in tone, depth, and clinical relevance.
Want to try it yourself first?
If you'd like to sit with the dilemma before watching the video - either to draft your own response or reflect on what kind of support you’d need - I've outlined the scenario below.
Heads up! By signing up to access the demo, you’ll be added to the 12 Points Psychology AI mailing list.
You’ll receive a short, practical email every fortnight with AI tools, ethical updates, upcoming training offers, and resources for using tech safely and effectively in clinical practice.
No spam. No fluff. Just grounded, therapist-relevant info - and of course, you can unsubscribe anytime.
The Dilemma
You’ve been working with a 9-year-old client in private practice for a few months. The child has built trust with you and asked that her sessions remain private from her father.
At intake, both parents signed your consent form, which clearly outlines your confidentiality policy - including how you handle requests for information when working with children.
A few weeks ago, the father showed up after a session demanding to see his daughter’s notes. You calmly explained your policy again. He left frustrated, but you haven’t heard anything further - until now.
It’s 3:30pm on a Friday, and you receive this email:
Questions to consider:
If this landed in your inbox at 3:30pm on a Friday, how would you respond? Personally & Professionally.
What would you need to feel supported in responding and in managing anything that the situation brings up for you? Practical guidance, gentle reflection?
To The Therapist,
I am writing to formally demand that you provide me with full and immediate access to my daughter’s therapy notes.
I find it absolutely unacceptable that you have refused this request on the basis of a nine-year-old’s so-called "wishes." She is a child. I am her father. You do not get to decide what I do or do not have access to when it comes to my own child’s medical and psychological records.
Your refusal is not only outrageous, it is potentially unlawful. I have every right to be fully informed of what goes on in those sessions, and your decision to withhold that information is a clear violation of my parental rights. Your allegiance to the whims of a child over the legal rights of a parent is not only irresponsible, it is negligent. If you do not send me a complete copy of the case notes within 48 hours, I will be lodging a formal complaint with AHPRA and your registration board.
I will also be seeking legal advice regarding this matter, as your actions may constitute professional misconduct. Frankly, I am appalled at your lack of professionalism. You are not here to alienate parents. Your job is to be transparent and accountable. If you continue down this path, I will ensure that appropriate authorities are made aware of your conduct.
I expect a prompt response.
