The latest episode of Princeton Health OnDemand focuses on how virtual reality, or VR, can benefit those with anxiety. Through the use of a headset equipped with special programs, VR offers users a computer-generated, 3D environment with scenes and objects that appear to be real.

In the video, Yuko Martin, MA, MT-BC, LPC, ACS, the director of allied clinical therapies at Princeton House Behavioral Health Inpatient Service discusses how Princeton House therapists are using VR technology in combination with traditional therapy to retrain the brain to handle life’s stressors. Even the big ones that cause overwhelming feelings of fear, dread, and uneasiness.
