ArachNOphobia is an interactive VR application, whose purpose is to treat patients affected by this phobia keeping them safe during the whole experience. It consists of an exposure session, through which the user is asked by the Therapist to complete the three steps of the therapy, in order to learn how to manage and reduce his anxiety. Thanks to the VR approach, the user will be able to live a supervised experience that will allow him to face the object of his phobia, which being virtual, will never hurt him.
