Well this has been an exciting week. I'm really looking forward to this project, and I'm hoping that it all comes together nicely. Me, Colin, and Evan had a long discussion on where we wanted this project to go and really started to nail down our core concepts. From most of what we've observed as far as immersion therapy in PTSD is most of the programs tend to be goal oriented, with the patient doing things such as balancing on a beam or guiding a boat through buoys. If these treatments could be broken down into one phrase for how it helps the patient my team came up with the overall theme of "regaining control". PTSD suffers are over-stimulated, and the main focus of the therapy seems to be giving the patient a goal to concentrate on so that they can get the mind in the game, so to speak.
