Dr Corrie AcklandPrincipal Clinical Psychologist & Director, Sydney Phobia ClinicLesson summary
VR's core value is optimising exposure therapy, which works best when it is graduated, prolonged and repeated. VR lets you build broader, personalised exposure hierarchies, deliver controlled practice remotely as homework, and — through immersion — improve motivation and how learning generalises to real life.
Key learning points
- Design broader, personalised exposure hierarchies
- Controlled between-session practice at home
- Immersion aids motivation and real-world transfer
