VR Support: Self-guided VR system for Mental Health At Home
“I love PsyTech VR! I was always addicted to washing my hands with sanitizer. It became a sort of ritual for me to keep my hands clean and stay calm mentally. Honestly, I got bored with it. But here, I’ve found some exciting levels like flying bacteria, dirty tunnels, and garbage in a restaurant where rats and cockroaches are everywhere! Cool. I started feeling more confident about all this. Is this a kind of self-therapy? Yes. Highly recommend.”
“I have a strong acrophobia, which has influenced my life a lot. This tool has really helped me to cope with this mental problem. I’ve tested it several times so far, but I already feel better; my fear seems to start fading away.”
“Thanks to the team at PsyTech VR for helping me overcome my biggest fear—heights. The skyscraper scene helped me step by step to overcome my fear. The picture is excellent, the immersion is perfect; during the first therapy session, my skin was covered with goosebumps, but the more I practiced, the easier my perception of height became. This is a very cool app; I wish the team great success, you are doing incredible things!”
“At Christian Psychological Associates, we’re committed to innovation that enhances care. By integrating Virtual Reality into therapy, we’re expanding how we support healing, wellness, and growth. This technology helps us meet patients where they are while staying aligned with the future of mental health care.”
