Dr. Becky is the parenting guru for the social media era. Now she's an AI chatbot, too
Briefly

Dolores Ballesteros, frustrated by her son's behavior, turned to the Good Inside parenting app and its AI chatbot for help. The chatbot guided her to understand her son’s feelings, improving their relationship. It emphasized the importance of self-care amid parenting challenges. The app was developed based on clinical psychologist Becky Kennedy's teachings, who gained popularity on Instagram by offering relatable parenting advice. Kennedy's approachable style and real-life experiences make her guidance particularly effective for struggling parents.
"The chatbot told me that I only have so much patience," she recalls. Today, Ballesteros feels more connected to her son and more confident as a parent.
Launched last August, the Good Inside chatbot is trained on the teachings of Manhattan-based clinical psychologist Becky Kennedy, known to her 3.2 million Instagram followers as 'Dr. Becky.'
Kennedy coaches parents through common dilemmas, focusing on developing a healthy parent-child relationship, providing relatable and actionable advice.
