What Is Innerworld?
Innerworld is a virtual platform built on peer guidance and Cognitive Behavioral Immersion. Innerworld members attend virtual events (available daily) to explore the thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that shape them, learn how to navigate mental health challenges, or just to hang out and find community.
Innerworld is accessible on any device, including Oculus headsets, smartphones, tablets, or computers, and it is 100% anonymous.
Thanks in large part to our guides, Innerworld members find a strong sense of support and community, and many times Innerworld is their first major self-initiated step to improved mental health.
Here’s what Innerworld
members say about Innerworld:
I like how interactive it is. It actually makes you feel like you’re a part of the meeting as opposed to just being like a spectator.”
I always feel better at the end of the meeting than I did at the beginning of the meeting.”
I was able to actually use a lot of the tools, but also [learn] how they are applied and take away a lot of the information just to say okay, I ain’t alone in this stuff.”
If you have any questions about being a guide or about Innerworld, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Natalie Strucinski, our Director of Operations and Community and she’ll be happy to help!
NOTE: Though we teach and use the principles of CBT, Innerworld is not a form of therapy. As a guide, you will be certified and vetted through our training program, but we do not confer practitioners licenses for therapists or psychiatrists. Our goal is offer help and guidance for mental health challenges through a virtual, supportive community.
