# Amod/mental_health_counseling_conversations

This dataset is a compilation of high-quality, real one-on-one mental health counseling conversations between individuals and licensed professionals. Each exchange is structured as a clear question–answer pair, making it directly suitable for fine-tuning or instruction-tuning language models that need to handle sensitive, empathetic, and contextually aware dialogue.

Since its public release in 2023, it has been downloaded over 100,000 times (As of Nov 2025); hitting 10,000+ downloads in Nov 2025 alone. The data is provided in a clean format, allowing for straightforward integration into training pipelines with minimal preprocessing.
