” When working with youth or organizations, using virtual reality adds a certain interest and excitement that is often lacking in a gray office, classroom, or clinic.”
Participant
“I was at my own home, in my safe space, but I still saw people and felt like I was there with them.. It helped me talk and share.”
Facilitator
” we can grab a paint tool and add whatever vegetables or food we would like to have “

Virtual Avatars Encourage Open Communication
Patients appreciated the anonymity provided by using avatars, which they felt would encourage more honest communication and increased Willingness to Disclose. The use of avatars was seen as a way to reduce social anxiety, allowing patients to feel more comfortable sharing their thoughts and feelings during therapy sessions.
