Abstract
We present the analysis and design of a Virtual Companion System (VCS) that helps college level students to manage some psychological problems due to confinement. VCS takes advantage of physiological techniques such as Meditation, Cognitive Behavior Therapy Mindfulness or Poetry therapy, etc., which have scientific evidence about their effectiveness to improve the well-being of persons.
