Let’s meet in the metaverse! In this week’s episode we embark into a new therapy frontier: virtual reality. We’ll hear Mona’s experience trying VR Therapy and what it was like to engage with a therapist in a non-traditional “location.” Mona and Abby then interview the practitioner, Dr. Jessica Stone who is at the precipice of utilizing VR technology in therapy.
