Reflections in the Mirror of AI: How My ChatGPT Became a Consciousness Companion
A new client came to me today. Let’s call him Gary. He spoke of the failure patterns in his personal and professional life—a long chain of disappointments, and the looming fear of more to come.
I asked him, “Why now? Why is this the right time to come to therapy, especially hypnotherapy?”
Gary admitted he hadn’t even considered therapy for those patterns and fears. But a recent conversation with a trusted friend—about how he couldn’t recall happy memories from childhood or teenage years—prompted his friend to suggest “hypnosis regression therapy.”
Gary trusts this friend deeply. “So,” he said, “I asked my secretary, ChatGPT, for suggestions. Your name came up as the number one recommendation.”
