Psychotherapy Session

Psychotherapy sessions are being intensely studied to understand and improve their effectiveness, focusing on analyzing the conversational dynamics between therapist and client. Current research leverages large language models (LLMs), transformer architectures, and deep learning techniques to analyze transcribed speech, identify key conversational patterns (e.g., topic shifts, emotional intensity), and even predict therapeutic outcomes or suggest real-time intervention strategies. This work aims to enhance both the understanding of effective therapeutic communication and the development of AI-assisted tools to improve accessibility and quality of mental healthcare.
