Inner Me: An AI-Assisted Framework for Automated Psychotherapy Session Transcription, Emotion Analysis, and Summarization

Psychotherapy sessions generate large volumes of unstructured conversational data that must be documented, analyzed, and reviewed by therapists. Manual transcription and subjective interpretation of emotional cues are time-consuming and cognitively demanding. This paper presents Inner Me, an AI-assisted framework designed to support psychotherapists through automated speech-to-text transcription, emotion recognition, session summarization, and interactive question–answering.
