This directory was created by Dr. Howard Gurr. He is a psychologist who utilizes Virtual Reality Therapy in his practice. Over the years, it became clear to Dr. Gurr that patients were not aware of the potential Virtual Reality could bring to their therapy. Patients were calling him from all over asking for Virtual Reality treatment, but Dr. Gurr was unable to meet their needs. Dr. Gurr would try to help these patients by finding therapists who used Virtual reality in their practices. It was a daunting task finding other VR therapists, as there were too few and it was difficult to locate them. Dr. Gurr decided that there should be a directory of clinicians who utilize Virtual reality in their practices. No one single company appeared to be interested in creating such a directory. Dr. Gurr decided to create the directory and list therapists who use Virtual Reality, regardless of which platform or product they utilize. Dr. Gurr wanted a website where therapists could list their practices, share information with like-minded therapists, and where prospective patients could locate clinicians near them that would  be able to provide  Virtual Reality Therapy.
