I mentioned this briefly in an earlier post, but wanted to share this fantastic video recorded by the Online Therapy Institute and Onlinevents team during the OCTIA 2010 Conference (Online Counselling and Therapy in Action) held last weekend. This session was held live in Manchester for the conference, via the Onlinevents Livestream (with a chat backchannel) and live in Second Life for a small audience who enjoyed the tour.
During the video Kate gives a brief overview of some of the work she is doing in relation to online counselling in virtual worlds, as well as a brief tour of the new expanded headquarters we’ve just about finished creating for them on jokaydia II.
Huuuge congratulations to the Online Therapy Institute team! I am so impressed by the creative, thoughtful approach you are taking to developing mental health services online and also to creating a community for mental health professionals online (check out the OTI’s website full of tools and resources!). Also big congratulations to Onlinevents team – your mixed reality events skills rock – what a great recording of the session!
