Behavioral Health Business Interview

Meet the new mental health workforce.

Careers at the intersection of mental health and technology are booming. I had the honor of talking with Ashleigh Hollowell, M.S. at Behavioral Health Business about this evolving line of work. 

"Market projections estimate that AI in the behavioral and mental health sector could reach between $7.82 billion and $8.53 billion by 2030, which will only underscore the need for professionals who understand both."

"The explosion of artificial intelligence-powered tools, apps and techniques in the behavioral health space, plus persistent concerns about the impact of screen time and social media on mental health, are spurring the rise of new roles and areas of expertise. With that comes growing demand from patients, health systems and practices to have trained specialists who can navigate these new waters."

"The job descriptions for these novel roles vary, but broadly they’re responsible for evaluating and advising on strategies related to digital health and AI."

Thanks Ashleigh for a lovely conversation; I am truly passionate about this work!
