About
Dr. Yifeng Xu is a leading figure in the integration of artificial intelligence with mental health treatment, with a primary focus on anxiety disorders—the most prevalent psychiatric conditions in China. His groundbreaking work addresses the critical shortage of psychotherapy resources by pioneering AI-assisted therapeutic interventions. Dr. Xu’s most notable contribution is his design of a prospective, national multicenter randomized controlled trial protocol evaluating the efficacy of AI-assisted psychotherapy for anxiety disorders, a study that has garnered 21 citations and set a new standard for digital mental health research in China. This work directly confronts the challenge that combining medication with psychotherapy is significantly more beneficial than medication alone, yet access to human therapists remains insufficient. By developing and testing AI-driven solutions, Dr. Xu is not only advancing clinical treatment paradigms but also creating scalable, accessible mental health interventions. His research represents a vital bridge between cutting-edge technology and evidence-based psychiatric care, positioning him as a key innovator in the future of mental health treatment delivery.
