The Therapist Thrival Guide 18. Using Technology in Therapy
Last week we were joined by LJ Taugher, MA to discuss how virtual reality is being used as a digital therapeutic tool, and we felt like we only scratched the surface! We invited LJ and Dr. G back to talk about how we are seeing technology being used in therapy and as an intervention for kids diagnosed with ADHD and Autism, or that are struggling with anger and outbursts.
