What We Do

At Acute XR, we harness the transformative power of Virtual Reality (VR) to redefine therapy. By combining cutting-edge VR technology with game-based therapy, we create immersive experiences that make mental health treatment more engaging, effective, and accessible for all.

Why VR Therapy?
We believe that immersion is the key to unlocking the full potential of therapy. VR allows individuals to step into environments that feel real—whether it’s experiencing live biofeedback visualized all around them or confronting scenarios designed to help process trauma or phobias in a controlled and safe way. This level of immersion strengthens the connection to the therapeutic experience, making therapy not only more impactful but also more enjoyable.

Augmented Reality (AR): Expanding Possibilities
In addition to VR, Augmented Reality (AR) offers unique therapeutic advantages by blending reality with virtual elements. AR enables us to create and recreate scenarios that were once only possible through strong imaginations. For example, we can simulate a room filled with mice to trigger and treat specific phobias, helping patients confront their fears in real-world environments enhanced with AR elements. This seamless integration of the real and the imagined opens new pathways for mental health treatment, making therapy even more versatile and effective.

Making Therapy Accessible and Efficient
Traditional therapy settings can be intimidating, particularly for children, who may struggle to open up or fully engage in an office environment. Our playful and interactive approach flips this challenge on its head. By integrating therapeutic goals into fun, immersive games, we make therapy approachable and enjoyable. Children naturally engage with our experiences, saving therapists valuable time and reducing frustration while fostering meaningful progress.

Redefining the Future of Mental Health
Game-based VR and AR therapy offer unique advantages:

  • Enhanced Immersion: A fully engaging, multi-sensory experience that deepens emotional connection and learning.
  • Improved Outcomes: The playful nature of our games keeps individuals motivated, leading to better and faster therapeutic results.
  • Greater Accessibility: VR and AR therapy break down barriers, bringing effective mental health support to people who might otherwise hesitate to seek help.

At Acute XR, we’re more than just a tech company—we’re champions of using the power of play to empower individuals on their mental health journey. By blending creativity, innovation, and compassion, we’re building a future where therapy is no longer a chore but an exciting and transformative experience.
