How does Ken Walker's VR space in Horizon Worlds address mental health challenges?

Hi, I’m Ken Walker from Instagram. Love this question.

In Horizon Worlds, I’m building a space where people can come together and talk about mental health without the pressure of face-to-face contact. A headset can feel a lot safer than a waiting room, so the goal is to create an outlet where conversations feel open, low-stress, and judgment-free.

It’s focused on connection, reflection, and growth rather than “therapy.” Think: open discussions, support, and a place to not feel alone with what’s on your mind. It’s still a work in progress, but inner peace, self love, and growth are the core goals.

What kind of mental health support would feel most helpful to you in a space like that?
