Cognitive Behavioral Therapy FAQ

Whether you have tried exposure therapy in the past or you are new to this type of treatment, this is a great tool for when there is difficulty doing in-vivo exposures. For example, this is a great stepping stone if it is too difficult to go straight into a plane as a specific phobia intervention for flying. We can control the level/intensity of the exposure compared to in-vivo.

Item deYes. We like to think of virtual reality therapy as a tool, not necessarily the full intervention. And as CBT clinicians, we have a specific way of helping people, but we recognize that it's not the only way. If we feel another form of therapy outside of our scope of practice is helpful, we will refer you to our best resources.
If you want to incorporate other methods of helping or healing, we'll integrate that into your treatment or provide a referral to another provider.
