Safely face your fears with

Virtual Reality Therapy

Developed to cross the bridge between real world exposure to feared situations and imaginal exposure (where psychologists would get you to try to immerse in an environment in your mind).

Virtual reality goggles give you the opportunity to have a greater level of immersion into your feared situation (such as placing you in an airport terminal and on an aircraft) whilst physically still being within the office environment.

ThinkWise is proud to be the first clinic in South Australia to offer virtual reality treatment for phobias and over the years we have treated people with a variety of presentations from fear of flying, fear of heights, claustrophobia, fear of the dark, fear of dogs, etc. Children and adults can benefit from the use of virtual reality goggles in phobia treatment.

The virtual reality goggles are an adjunct to standard CBT/mindfulness treatment for the anxiety associated with phobias. The virtual reality system used at ThinkWise was developed in Spain and is used around the world in phobia clinics and psychology practices.
