CBT incorporating Virtual Reality

CBT incorporating Virtual Reality

If you are looking for help to deal with anxiety, fears and phobias you can choose to receive treatment using high quality Cognitive Behavioural Therapy interweaved with the latest in Virtual Reality simulation technology. The Virtual Reality treatments use immersive software which is viewed through a headset in the comfort of the therapy room. It allows for gradual exposure to simulated versions of the situations you fear with the support of a therapist. You can be in control of the pace, repeating certain scenes and practicing interacting in feared situations, gradually increasing the challenge until your anxiety has reduced and you have developed a greater degree of tolerance for anxiety provoking situations.

The Virtual Reality Exposure programmes on offer include environments for the treatment of needle phobias, agoraphobia; claustrophobia; driving phobia; public speaking anxiety including opportunities for interview skills practice, addiction problems and fear of heights. Also available are interactive educational experiences which facilitate understanding and coping skills for adults and young people experiencing depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress. Our Virtual Reality software also facilitates the development of skills in relaxation, meditation and mindfulness.
