Abstract This article presents a study about the application of text mining in psychotherapeutic evaluations. Our volunteers are subjects diagnosed with social phobia and treated with virtual reality exposure therapy. Evaluación de psicoterapia Sentiment analysis, through syntactic analysis, was applied over narrative material the volunteers produced themselves; forthe quantitative assessment, we used the sentiment lexicon LIWC (Linguistics Inquiry and Word Count). The results show a proportional relation between the emotional level of the narrative material and the advancement of therapy, which suggests the consideration of text mining as an effectiveness indicator for psychotherapies.
