Our user-friendly hardware can be tailored to suit the needs of your practice, our clinical team will provide training and ongoing assistance for confident use of our equipment. 

Our treatment combines advanced immersive technologies with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), guiding patients gradually through scenes alongside our therapists to manage anxiety triggers. Therapists have full control over the digital scenes, customising environments and adjusting exposure levels dynamically, including sound, character interactions, and scene elements.

We also understand that mental health conditions don’t just impact the individual, but they can also impact their support network, so we know how important it is to feel supported when you are going through treatment. This is why we provide the unique opportunity for family, caregivers, or support workers to observe live sessions, providing support to those close to them and fostering continued progress beyond treatment.

We use virtual reality technology to project lifelike digital scenes into our Immersive Studio. The space allows us to create virtual displays of various scenarios onto a curved white screen. This means the specific environment that the person finds challenging can be reproduced in a safe setting. People can navigate within and through the scenes for example, in a supermarket or classroom with a tablet, without the need for a headset or goggles.

Each person goes into the studio with a therapist. People navigate through a scene that is a recreation of a specific situation that makes them anxious. This starts with a low level of difficulty – for instance, for someone afraid of crowded buses, we start with them getting onto an empty bus. Over the course of the sessions more people would board the bus as the child or adult is able to meet the increased challenge. During the process the therapist is there to help them practice anxiety management strategies they have learnt such as relaxation techniques and using coping self-statements.
