Episode description

What if virtual reality (VR) could help neurodivergent individuals build real-world social skills? In this episode of Embracing Autism IRL, I sit down with Jenifer Shahin, a behavioral therapist and former film producer who has spent over 20 years helping neurodivergent individuals thrive. Having overcome her own learning differences, Jenifer has discovered the power of creativity and technology in transforming social learning. Now, through SocialWise VR, she’s using cutting-edge virtual reality to create a safe, immersive space where individuals can practice and master essential social interactions. Could this be the future of social skills training? Tune in to find out!
