Kim Bullock, MDClinical Professor, Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences, Stanford UniversityLesson summary
Choose environments that map to items on your client's fear hierarchy, then progress difficulty as they habituate — mirroring in-session gains with similar VR or in-vivo homework so progress carries over. Keeping real-world goals in mind ensures a smooth transition from VR to real life.
Key learning points
- Mapping scenes to hierarchy items
