With the pandemic affecting the mental health of millions worldwide, several turned to online services and teletherapy to take care of their mental wellness. As the Metaverse is quickly becoming a reality, with Metaverse fashion and Metaverse racing games, it may be that therapy, too, will move to the virtual world. The therapist and the client can interact via 3D avatars which could be a step up from phone-based counselling. Furthermore, for those with agoraphobia and anxiety, having access to psychological services from the comfort of their home may be a boon! Therefore, the Metaverse could just signify a new frontier in the field of mental health and treatment.
