In the last two years we have been researching how immersive technologies can be used to support anxious teenagers.

 

From Gaming and Virtual Reality, to Avatar Therapy and Augmented Reality we have been working with young people, youth organisations, researchers, technology companies and parents to help us develop a therapy intervention for young people who may not be interested in more traditional therapeutic approaches.

​

We have developed an approach using 2D and Augmented reality in partnership with Sugar Creative based on a guided imagery approach and have been piloting this on mobile phones with Welsh young people to see how this might be used in future therapy.

​

We have learned that technology can provide a bridge to build social connection, lower anxiety and reduce depression and we are now in the next phase of developing a programme of support that therapists and youth workers can use within their sessions to support young people.

​

If you'd like to see more , or want to hear how this type of technology could be used in your work with young people you can book a demo session with us below.
