Bridging the Gap Between Sessions with VR Therapy
Therapy doesn’t stop when the session ends—and any provider will tell you that the real work often happens in between. Assignments like journaling, mindfulness exercises, or breathing techniques are critical tools used to reinforce progress, build healthy habits, and keep clients actively engaged in their journey.
But let’s be honest: follow-through is hard.
Clients might forget, feel awkward practicing on their own, or say they completed the homework when they really didn’t. It’s not about deception—it’s human nature. Life gets busy, emotions get in the way, and shame can make honesty uncomfortable.
That’s where Good Thoughts comes in.
We’re transforming between-session therapy with immersive, trackable VR exercises that clients can engage with on their own terms—without judgment, and without pressure.
Why Between-Session Work Matters
Therapy "homework" is more than just an add-on—it’s a proven part of what drives successful outcomes. When clients engage with exercises outside the therapy room, they’re more likely to:
-
Reinforce the skills they’ve learned
-
Practice healthy behaviors until they stick
-
Take greater ownership over their growth
-
Sustain progress over the long term
But traditional therapy relies on one big assumption: that clients will do the work and be honest about it. The truth is, many run into common obstacles.
The Real-World Challenges
Even with the best intentions, clients often:
-
Forget what they were asked to do
-
Feel uncomfortable meditating or journaling alone
-
Avoid assignments that stir up difficult emotions
-
Tell their therapist they did it just to avoid conflict or guilt
The result? Gaps in care, missed opportunities, and slower progress.
How Good Thoughts Changes the Game
With Good Thoughts, between-session therapy gets a much-needed upgrade.
We offer guided VR-based exercises that providers can assign and clients can complete in beautiful, immersive environments—right from home. And the best part? Everything is tracked automatically.
Here’s how it works:
-
Clients explore calming VR spaces with structured breathwork, mindfulness, and visualization
-
Participation is logged in the background—no forms to fill, no pressure to perform
-
Providers receive passive insights without needing to ask awkward questions
This isn’t about surveillance. It’s about support—removing barriers to honesty and creating a more effective therapeutic relationship.
A Better Experience for Everyone
When VR supports between-session work, everyone benefits:
-
Clients feel empowered, not judged
-
Providers get reliable data, without relying on self-reporting
-
Exercises feel like self-care, not a chore
Whether it’s reducing anxiety, building emotional awareness, or simply taking a few minutes to reflect, Good Thoughts helps clients stay connected to their therapeutic goals—every day, not just during appointments.
Between-session work is where the seeds of lasting change are planted.
With Good Thoughts, providers and clients finally have a tool to nurture that growth—with structure, guidance, and accountability that doesn’t feel like a burden.
Therapy continues—even when the headset comes off.
