Artificial intelligence (AI) systems are increasingly used across domains to provide personalized information, recommendations, and decision support. However, in some contexts, AI-generated information may not be suitable for direct delivery to the final recipient.
Anian is a safety‑gated multimodal AI backend designed for perinatal mental‑health support and mindfulness‑intervention routing. It maps user input into a four‑layer hierarchical state representation—emotion, psychosocial constructs, safety risk, and intervention routes—then fuses local and external risk signals to decide whether to generate AI responses or provide fixed safety content. Prototype evaluation on large public corpora showed high classification performance and perfect high‑risk recall in a controlled stress test, though clinical validity remains unestablished.

This paper presents Earthquaker-AI, a hybrid educational framework building upon a previously implemented educational robotics project by integrating a conversational AI assistant based on Retrieval-Augmented Generation. It aims to enhance earthquake preparedness and conscious action among primary-school students.
The paper introduces CounselReflect, a tool that converts counseling quality metrics into a framework for users to reflect on their mental‑health AI conversations. Through interviews with 21 users, the study finds that while most participants rarely reflect on their interactions, they identify specific questions they would like such a tool to address. The findings also reveal that users tend to confirm existing beliefs and focus on familiar dimensions, highlighting the need for reflection tools to expose blind spots and encourage a more comprehensive examination of AI interactions, especially when revisiting emotionally charged exchanges.
This scoping review examined 48 studies on generative AI chatbots designed to deliver motivational interviewing (MI). It found that most systems were text‑based and disembodied, with about half incorporating dynamic adaptation, and that safety reporting was inconsistent. While user perceptions were generally positive and many studies reported MI‑consistent interactions, evidence for sustained behavioral or functional change remains limited.
The article surveys how large language models (LLMs) are being applied to mental health, outlining a three‑phase evolution: Phase I uses LLMs as passive information tools and pattern recognizers for assessment; Phase II employs them as empathetic conversationalists for stateless, in‑the‑moment interactions; Phase III aims to create longitudinal, personalized companions that act as stateful cognitive agents. It systematically reviews core technologies, agent architectures (Profile, Memory, Reasoning, Planning), and the datasets and benchmarks that support this progression, offering a coherent narrative and roadmap for future research. The survey also provides a curated resource list at https://github.com/Emo-gml/Awesome-Mental-Health-LLMs.
