BfB Labs

CBT is a well-evidenced approach recommended for treating anxiety in children, but it is expensive to deliver, and patients often face long waiting times for treatments. We are developing new immersive gaming technology to improve access to, and effectiveness of, current frontline treatments of children’s anxiety, using gamification to increase adherence to therapeutic protocols. We will combine the latest understanding of anxiety management in young people with what BfB Labs has learned about creating engaging and immersive games to develop a new anxiety management product – fun to use, with high adherence, and an evidence base to support use alongside therapy.
