AI environment MyMentorLLM simulates psychotherapy training sessions

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed MyMentorLLM, a multimodal generative AI environment designed for training psychotherapists. This system simulates Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) sessions, incorporating voice and text interactions between simulated patients, trainees, and expert supervisors. Initial findings indicate that while most LLMs overestimated trainee competence, native speech-to-speech models provided feedback closest to human scores, and larger models improved diagnostic accuracy. The study highlights the potential for AI in deliberate practice for CBT, while also noting areas for improvement such as patient fidelity and supervisor calibration. AI

IMPACT This AI system offers a novel approach to therapist training, potentially increasing access to practice and supervision in mental healthcare.
