Description

Step into the future of therapy with us! In this episode of MHVR Bytes, We sit down with Marie Bonner-Horon, LPC, RPT-S of The Playhouse Collaborative, a licensed professional counselor, registered play therapist supervisor.

From using Minecraft and Fortnite to connect with kids, to creating immersive VR beach experiences that help parents finally relax, Marie shows us how digital play and virtual reality are transforming therapy.

We explore:

How play therapy bridges the gap between generations

✨ The challenges (and magic!) of introducing VR in clinical practice

✨ Why giving parents tools for self-regulation matters as much as helping kids

✨ What clinicians need to know before diving into VR

This conversation is full of real-world insights, laughter, and powerful takeaways for anyone interested in the intersection of mental health + VR.

👉 Watch, learn, and see why the future of therapy looks more immersive than ever.
