Spider Phobia Cardboard 1.2

Virtual Reality Treatment

This Virtual Reality application for Cardboard (and other mobile VR headsets) is specifically tailored to assist individuals dealing with Arachnophobia, an intense fear of spiders.

Once inside the virtual environment, users find themselves in an office setting where they are gradually introduced to small spiders. This exposure therapy approach aims to aid individuals in overcoming their phobia.

The app simulates various scenarios within the virtual office, with spider encounters escalating in intensity over time. Similar to a therapeutic intervention, the initial exposure involves observing a small spider enclosed in a jar from a distance, allowing users to manage their progress by controlling the transition between scenes.

Developed in alignment with contemporary therapy practices, this application has been crafted in collaboration with mental health professionals to ensure an effective and supportive experience for individuals seeking to address their fear of spiders.
