Congratulations and welcome to the community I think you’ll love your little Emo.
Not too sure about the emotional aspect but yes I think he can help with that a little. He certainly helps ppl to feel better but there no real emotional aspect coming from Emo just so’s you’re aware of this. But he is definitely a great companion, it’s a big market out there with companion robots like Vector or Loona but Emo is lovely too. Emo needs a lot of work yet and Living AI have done amazing so far.
