Context-Aware Cognitive Reframing for Mental Wellbeing
View Project
This project explores cognitive reframing for mental health using context awareness and multi‑modal sensing. Instead of relying on static journaling or manual prompts, the system detects moments of stress or negative self‑talk and delivers timely, personalized reframing cues in daily life. The goal is to help people notice unhelpful interpretations and shift toward more balanced, compassionate perspectives.
The approach is designed for real‑world conditions where:
Emotional state fluctuates across situations and routines, Users may not recognize cognitive distortions in the moment, Minimal effort and interruption are essential for sustained engagement. The core idea is to combine passive sensing (physiological and behavioral) with context inference (location, activity, social setting) to trigger micro‑interventions that fit the user’s current situation without feeling intrusive.
