What is Virtual Reality (VR) Therapy?

VR technology is a tool used in place of real-life exposures. VR Therapy consists of a computer-generated virtual environment (VE) that elicits the sense of anxiety that a person would experience during real-world exposures.

By stimulating the user’s senses, VR therapy offers a realistic immersive experience that is especially valuable when the intricacies of real-world therapeutic exposure become too challenging due to time constraints and safety precautions.
