VIRTUAL REALITY
TREATMENT

A core approach to treatment is exposure therapy, enhanced using fully immersive virtual reality (VR) technology. By guiding patients to face very specific elements of their traumatic memory - including sights, smells, and sounds - we are able to help them process that memory, put their trauma iin its place and regain control of their daily lives.

​

While VR has always played a role in our approach, UCF RESTORES is now testing a new VR system, funded by the U.S. Department of Defense, that could enhance treatment for both military and civilian traumas by dynamically recreating scenarios specific to each patient's unique experience.

​

Our culturally compentant Michigan clinicians work with UCF RESTORES based clinicians virtually to offer VR therapy.
