AI in TeleBehavioral Health: Promise, Practice, and Responsibility
The TeleBehavioral Health Summit (TeleBH Summit) is a free, two-day, CME-accredited virtual conference focused on the growing role of artificial intelligence and digital innovation in behavioral health care.
Building on the Behavioral Health Institute’s TeleBehavioral Health Training Series, the TeleBH Summit brings together national experts, clinicians, policymakers, and thought leaders to examine how AI is shaping behavioral health practice today and how providers can engage with these tools safely, ethically, and effectively. The Summit emphasizes practical, frontline-focused education that supports clinical judgment, patient safety, equity, and regulatory compliance in an increasingly technology-enabled care environment.
Over two days, participants will move through an Awareness, Inspiration, and Mastery learning arc, gaining foundational understanding of AI concepts, exploring real-world clinical applications and risks, and developing skills for responsible integration into everyday workflows. Sessions address clinical use cases, legal and ethical considerations, patient communication, policy and regulatory trends, and strategies for sustaining high-quality, person-centered care.
The TeleBH Summit is designed for anyone providing, supervising, or leading behavioral health services, including clinicians, peer professionals, administrators, and system leaders, who want to better understand AI’s impact on mental health and substance use care and their role in shaping its responsible use.
Continuing Education
After completing the conference evaluation, a free Certificate of Completion will be provided. Continuing Medical Education credits are available for a nominal fee. More information about CME accreditation is available here.
