Mental Health Counseling Conversations (Cleaned)

Dataset Overview

This dataset is derived from the original Amod/mental_health_counseling_conversations dataset, which contains mental health counseling conversations.

In this version, duplicate Context-Response pairs have been removed to improve data quality and usability.

Dataset Details

Processing Steps

The dataset was prepared using the following steps:

  1. Loaded the original dataset using the datasets library.
  2. Identified and removed duplicate columns.
  3. Dropped duplicate Context-Response pairs.
  4. Computed statistics on response counts per prompt.
  5. Saved the cleaned dataset as a JSON file.

Code Used for Cleaning

# Install necessary libraries
!pip install datasets

# Import required modules
from datasets import load_dataset
import pandas as pd

# Load dataset from Hugging Face
dataset = load_dataset("Amod/mental_health_counseling_conversations")

# Convert the dataset to a Pandas DataFrame (train split)
df = pd.DataFrame(dataset['train'])

# Remove duplicate Context-Response pairs
df_cleaned = df.drop_duplicates(subset=['Context', 'Response'])

# Calculate response count per prompt
response_counts = df_cleaned.groupby('Context').size().reset_index(name='response_count')

# Compute statistical insights
min_responses = response_counts['response_count'].min()
avg_responses = response_counts['response_count'].mean()
max_responses = response_counts['response_count'].max()

print(f"Minimum responses per prompt: {min_responses}")
print(f"Average responses per prompt: {avg_responses:.2f}")
print(f"Maximum responses per prompt: {max_responses}")

# Identify prompts with the highest and lowest number of responses
max_prompt = response_counts[response_counts['response_count'] == max_responses]['Context'].tolist()
min_prompt = response_counts[response_counts['response_count'] == min_responses]['Context'].tolist()

print(f"Prompt(s) with the highest responses ({max_responses}): {max_prompt}")
print(f"Prompt(s) with the lowest responses ({min_responses}): {min_prompt}")

# Calculate dataset reduction percentage
reduction = ((df.shape[0] - df_cleaned.shape[0]) / df.shape[0]) * 100

print(f"Original dataset shape: {df.shape}")
print(f"Cleaned dataset shape: {df_cleaned.shape}")
print(f"Percentage reduction in data: {reduction:.2f}%")

# Save cleaned dataset
df_cleaned.to_json('mental-health-counseling.json', orient='records', lines=True)

Usage

This dataset can be used for:

  • Mental Health Chatbots: Developing AI-driven support systems.
  • Sentiment Analysis: Analyzing emotional tones in counseling dialogues.
  • Natural Language Processing (NLP): Training models for mental health-related text understanding.
