Interested in how new applications of technology could support your work in mental health? For the past three decades, Extended Reality (XR), including virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), has been used to treat a variety of behavioral health conditions. The recent technological advances in immersive technology brought about by gaming and mobile devices now offer even more potential uses including possibilities for rewiring implicit and unconscious beliefs and cognition.
Embodied VR is a new area of XR that is exploring treatment options for psychiatric disorders, such as body image and psychosomatic symptoms, through immersive experiences with online avatars.
