Dr Corrie AcklandPrincipal Clinical Psychologist & Director, Sydney Phobia ClinicLesson summary
Any client who needs exposure therapy is a candidate for VRET, and those who have struggled or felt unmotivated in the past often benefit most because VR removes many logistical and safety barriers to graded practice — enabling successes with fear of flying, needle phobia and claustrophobia that clients never thought possible.
Key learning points
- Suits clients stuck with traditional exposure
- Re-engages unmotivated or hesitant clients
- Set clear expectations and a strong rationale
