Abstract: With the development of artificial intelligence technologies, changes have also begun to be seen in psychotherapy. Although artificial intelligence does not currently have a major impact on the therapy field, it raises major questions about the nature of therapy and the value of the relationship future between people and therapists in understanding how artificial intelligence can be included in the therapy process, foreseeing the future, and being proactive are gaining importance. This article will examine current artificial intelligence applications used in psychotherapy fields with a literature review. Artificial intelligence can be used to increase the effectiveness of psychotherapy. However, it should not be forgotten that excessive reliance on artificial intelligence can overshadow the human aspect of psychotherapy and that the human factor is important. Although there are still uncertainties about how the profession will be affected by the use of artificial intelligence in psychotherapy and how it will be incorporated into therapy processes, it is envisaged that artificial intelligence can play a versatile role in psychotherapy.
