Thankyou for your well wishes regarding the introduction of Therapy world in
AW. I can assure everyone that the intentions of the professional staff
associated with this world are purely and totally that of offering a
voluntary service. I agree after spending some time in AW that there are
many people who need help - but this is to be expected because the AW
community comprises a wide selection of people with varying interests and
capacities from any country in the world that enables internet access. As
you can read from the various posts in response to that initially submitted
by my colleague Katalyzt, people do have different notions and ideas. One
hopes that any thinking person generally seeks to value and protect
diversity rather than homogenize people and cultures.
Therapy world while offering online counseling also offers a place for broad
based conversation and everyone is welcome to pop in and contribute. In
addition, we will in the future be offering public seminars about matters
relating to mental health and also seminars for mental health professionals.
I would ask you to note however that if a counseling session is in progress
the world will be closed to maintain the client's privacy. Registered and
non registered users of AW will be able to obtain assistance insofar as
their problems fall within the capacity of the professional team. At the
moment we have 3 qualified counselors available and hope to extend that
number by counselors from other countries and with other languages. If
anyone is interested in contributing to this service I would be delighted if
they emailed me at contact at therapist.net. Further, if anyone has suggestions
for public seminar topics we would also be delighted to receive them at the
same email address.
Therapy is the first online counseling venue offered in VR and as such there
will be a need for constant evaluation. My colleagues and I would appreciate
your comments about any and all aspects of therapy and hope that many of you
will pop in to say hello.

What a great idea, and what a great looking world! The glass objects near 0s 13e don't work too
well with AW3 but overall I really like ther place, its cozy and welcoming :-) Great place for

Actually come to think of it the windows are good the way they are -- ink blot testing! "What comes
to mind when you see the textures on those objects over there go all wacky?" ;-)
Good luck with the world!
