DMT-CBT: Longitudinal Therapeutic State Modeling for CBT Counseling
Researchers have introduced DMT-CBT, a new framework designed to model the evolving therapeutic states in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) counseling sessions. Unlike previous approaches that focus on single interactions, DMT-CBT tracks and updates patient states longitudinally across multiple sessions. The framework also incorporates multimodal data, such as images, and uses tool-augmented interventions to improve adaptive reasoning, aiming to enhance counseling fidelity and therapeutic alliance.
