The future of providing effective treatment for childhood trauma is underway...

Shinichi's Heart

"Shinichi" was the birth name given to my father in Nagasaki, Japan where he was born right after the end of World War II. The trauma that impacted my father's "heart" as a mixed roots orphan in Japan is the reason why Shinichi's Heart was created . We are a social entreprise dedicated to helping usher in new and emerging ways to treat childhood trauma in orphans around the world through journey based VR technology. Together over a 1-3 year therapy based VR game journey, children will be able to confront their own trauma and ultimately move beyond the pain into a place where they can begin to own and use their story as a vehicle of healing, self-empowerment and service to others.

-Matt Miller, Founder

A NEW WAY OF APPROACHING TRAUMA THERAPY

VR

GAME THERAPY

Many are still unfamiliar with the term "immersive video game therapy" but the world is on the tipping of something transformative with immersive game therapy that utilizes technology like VR to treat children living with trauma.

"The only limits are, as always, those of vision." - James Broughton

TREATING TRAUMA

Many of you know by now that VR is being effectively used to treat PTSD in adults as well as to to treat phobias and dementia. Soon VR will play a key role in helping to transform the way children living with trauma are treated.

"The secret of change is to focus all of your ENERGY,

not on fighting the old but on building the new."

-Socrates

ARTIFICAL INTELLIGENCE

A.I. supports us with the progress of patients undergoing treatment with trauma. A.I. will help support critical decision making situations within the VR journey. A.I. will perform important duties such as recognizing avoidance patterns and pinpointing delicate areas that will help children to gradual confront, work through and move beyond their individual trauma.

"When I have fully decided that a result is worth getting I go ahead of it and make trial after trial until it comes." - Thomas A. Edison

BIOFEEDBACK TECHNOLOGY

As technology and creativity advance so will the possibilities of using video games to treat trauma. Companies like Flying Mollusk have created Nevermind, a horror game that utilizes biofeedback technology to create a more immersive experience. While the game Nevermind itself it not suitable for therapy based treatment its technology is a perfect example of how games will be created to assist in therapy based treatment utilizing biofeedback technology as part of assessing a patient`s mental/emotional state while immersed within a virtual reality game.
