Virtual Reality (VR) transforms the human-machine interaction into an active engagement, offering new perspectives, particularly in the field of psychotherapy. Cognitive-behavioural approaches, often challenged by the complexity and costs of scenarios, find a solution in VR by simulating meticulously controlled environments. This innovation allows patients to adjust the characteristics of virtual environments, facilitating their learning to cope with a variety of anxiety disorders, especially specific phobias. This article analyses the implications of VR in psychotherapy for various phobias, exploring the theoretical foundations of cognitive-behavioural therapies underlying these applications. The objective is to critically highlight the advantages and limitations of VR in the therapeutic context, drawing on recent pioneering studies.
