Therapeutic Conversation Prompting And Engagement Scaffolding

Unique: Applies therapeutic conversation design principles (non-directive, emotionally safe, personalized) to LLM prompt generation, rather than using generic conversation starters — most chatbots use template-based or random prompts without therapeutic intent

vs others: More therapeutically sound than generic chatbots because prompts are designed around reminiscence therapy principles; more scalable than human therapists because it provides daily engagement without requiring professional availability
