About this service
As technology continues to make advancements in all fields of modern life, OCCS is proud to be on the cutting edge of how technology is shaping and affecting the mental health field. While virtual reality (VR) found its origin in flight training and gained popularity in video games, studies are showing that VR is extremely effective in helping people in their mental health journeys, specifically with dealing with phobias, anxieties, obsessions, or fears. Our VR therapy sessions involve utilizing headsets and software either in person or via a smartphone device if done through online sessions, where in the therapist can put the client in simulated virtual environments to provide live feedback that is invaluable to properly addressing certain mental health issues. Examples include public speaking, needles, flying, workplace or motor vehicle incidents, and much more.
