Digitalization, artificial intelligence, bots in therapy and counseling? How can we remain a tangible human presence in this virtual world? How can we offer genuine empathy and true compassion? Do algorithms, with their informational advantage, offer benefits that our human resonance cannot? This raises the question: what actually has an effect? Could it be the imperfect - the “I don’t really know right now either...” - that creates a human closeness which is healing and comforting? Through self-awareness, personal experience, and real-life encounters, we approach these questions
