Tech Hubinars: Integrating AI into Virtual Reality for Mental Health Care

Wednesday, November 11, 2026, 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM, A Live Webinar

Join us on November 11th, 12-1pm PT for a panel on Integrating AI into Virtual Reality for Mental Health Care. Virtual and augmented reality are increasingly being used to deliver exposure-based treatments for anxiety related disorders, trauma, addiction, and other mental health conditions. Advances in artificial intelligence are now expanding what these technologies can do, enabling more interactive, adaptive, and personalized therapeutic experiences. In this panel, experts spanning clinical research and digital health will explore the evolving role of AI in virtual and augmented reality for mental health care. Panelists will share examples of AI-enabled tools designed to address real-world clinical needs, including interactive virtual characters, personalized exposure environments, and systems that can adapt treatment based on patient response.
