PsyLLM is a large language model designed for psychological counseling and mental health dialogue generation. It integrates diagnostic reasoning and therapeutic reasoning, following established frameworks such as DSM/ICD, and incorporates diverse therapeutic approaches including CBT, ACT, and psychodynamic therapy.

The model is trained on the OpenR1-Psy dataset (arXiv:2505.15715),
featuring multi-turn counseling dialogues with explicit reasoning traces that support clinically informed, empathetic, and interpretable AI-assisted therapy.

The training process is implemented based on the open-source framework LLaMA-Factory. If you find this project helpful, feel free to ⭐ it! PsyLLM
