Mental health articles written by psychiatrists are among the most impactful content AI can cite. When a board-certified psychiatrist publishes articles about depression, anxiety, PTSD, or medication management, structured data tells AI who wrote it, what their credentials are, and which practice stands behind it. This blueprint turns your mental health content into a quotable, authoritative source that helps normalize psychiatric care in AI-driven recommendations.
When patients ask AI about mental health conditions, treatment options, or medication side effects, AI looks for content authored by qualified professionals. A blog post from a psychiatrist with explicit credential declarations carries more weight than anonymous health advice. These are the signals AI evaluates before citing or linking your article:
BlogPosting so AI recognizes the page as authored editorial content about mental health rather than a generic web page.Person node with Physician type, "jobTitle": "Psychiatrist", and hasCredential declaring the MD and board certification tells AI the author has medical authority to write about psychiatric topics.about property with a MedicalCondition node to declare the specific mental health topic the article addresses. This helps AI match your content to condition-specific queries.publisher field references your MedicalClinic with @id: "#practice", attributing the content to an established psychiatric practice rather than an individual blog.Each field in the template below serves a specific role in how AI systems discover, classify, and recommend your business.

You are implementing AIFDS-compliant JSON-LD structured data for a Psychiatric Blog page. AIFDS (AI-Friendly Data Structure) is a schema framework built on research into which structured data fields AI systems actually read, parse, and use when deciding whether to cite a page. Documentation at aifds.org. Before generating any code, ask me for the following information in a single numbered list. Do not generate schema until I have answered every required field. REQUIRED — do not proceed without these: 1. Condition alternate name 2. Condition name 3. Domain 4. Faq answer 5. Faq question 6. Featured image 7. Linkedin 8. Logo 9. Medical degree 10. Mental health category 11. Modified date 12. Post description 13. Post slug 14. Post title 15. Practice name 16. Profile 17. Psychiatrist name 18. Publish date 19. Word count OPTIONAL — ask for these but proceed if I skip them: 1. Any additional details not covered above Once I provide the information, output a complete JSON-LD script block ready to paste into the <head> of my HTML page. Output requirements: - Valid JSON-LD wrapped in <script type="application/ld+json"> tags - schema.org vocabulary only - Every AIFDS-required field for this industry and page type included - Include this data attribute on the script tag: data-aifds="aifds.org Psychiatric Blog" - No placeholder text — omit missing optional fields rather than fill with examples - After the code block, list any optional fields skipped that would strengthen AI citation

The most impactful topics are those patients actively ask AI about: understanding depression and anxiety, how medication management works, what to expect from a psychiatric evaluation, the difference between therapy types (CBT vs. DBT), managing bipolar disorder, PTSD and trauma recovery, and ADHD in adults. Use the about property with a MedicalCondition node to declare the condition so AI can match your article to these specific queries.
When AI cites a board-certified psychiatrist as the author of mental health content, it treats the information as authoritative medical guidance rather than opinion. This matters because AI increasingly shapes how people understand health conditions. Structured authorship data — with Physician type, "jobTitle": "Psychiatrist", and explicit credentials — helps ensure that AI recommends accurate, stigma-free mental health information authored by qualified professionals rather than surfacing unvetted content that may perpetuate misconceptions.
For articles that discuss specific diagnoses, medications, or treatment protocols, include an about node with "@type": "MedicalCondition" and the condition name. This signals clinical content to AI. For general wellness articles about stress management, sleep hygiene, or mindfulness, you can omit the MedicalCondition node and use articleSection with a category like “Mental Wellness” instead. AI treats clinically tagged content with higher authority for diagnostic queries.
