Dan Kimball is a licensed counselor trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and a Heroic coach who is on a quest to put the “psych” (soul) back into psychology. His experiences with shamanism, positive psychology and the Heroic platform, inspired him to build a cyberpunk styled game called “The Journey of Self Discovery”. The game utilizes AI generated characters to embody VIA character strengths so that the player can practice embodying and cultivating the virtues that they themselves possess. His target audience is gamers and the IT community who are typically men and who typically do not seek out therapy. Instead of “suffering in silence” these men can focus on developing their strengths while playing a game in a space they are familiar with so that they can heal and flourish.
