Here are the top 3 virtual reality companies bringing
change to psychology:
Psious
now treating phobias of human beings differently
The American and Spanish behavioral health technology
business, Psious
provides special treatment for psychological conditions like fear of needles,
flying, a variety of animals, general anxiety, public speaking, or agoraphobia.
With the assistance of VR, patients will get into situations that are fearful
for them under the consistent control of a doctor. Their job includes
facing their fears and slowly allowing them to go, while their imagination is
assisted by virtual reality. So far, the results are more than
encouraging!
Virtually
Better provides virtual reality exposure therapy for phobias, depression, or
anxiety
The pioneering virtual reality company founded in 1996, Virtually Better, provides, among others, an exposure therapy for those
who suffer with anxiety disorders, PTSD, and certain phobias. The technology
permits clinicians to circumvent most of the challenges related to other kinds
of exposure therapy; as well as treat problematic areas which many clinicians merely
lack the resources to efficiently treat. In most cases, it’s just not enough to
tell a patient to imagine her or his biggest fear to resolve the problem –
otherwise a patient wouldn’t actually require the intervention of an expert.
Bravemind
frees soldiers from PTSD
Even though not only soldiers and war veterans
experience PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder), but also abuse or sexual
assault victims, Bravemind is mostly for combat-associated PTSD.
This VR Exposure Therapy was created by a science team
with the University of Southern California. It’ll permit clinicians to slowly
immerse patients inside virtual environments that are representative of their
traumatic experiences within a stepwise, controlled fashion. They’ll control
the multi-sensory emotional stimuli that patients receive, as well as observe
the intensity of a patient's stress responses through psychophysiological
assessment methods and advanced brain imaging.
