Who We Are

Removing the boundaries of what therapy can be and where it can be done.

Floreo was founded from a personal place when its founder, Vijay Ravindran, saw his child’s first experience with virtual reality lead to exciting engagement and new milestones. That first experience led to a vision of creating a new medium for teaching and therapy, one where learning in the virtual world leads to real world success.

Today, Floreo’s immersive experiences provide thousands of people and practitioners with fun and engaging ways to practice and develop important skills that are difficult to learn and teach in “real life.”
In addition to our continual work developing effective lessons and tools for therapy programs, we are making advances to make essential services like Floreo more affordable and accessible for families, clinics, and educational institutions worldwide.

Developing therapy that’s more effective and more engaging

Floreo has changed therapy, for good.

Our clinical team has just begun to use Floreo and have been impressed at how much the community vignettes engage them, give them practice and promote discussion of real issues in their lives.
