Kane Tung, Ph.D.

As a father of a child with Autism and Staff Psychologist for one of the premier centers for Autism and Developmental Disabilities in Westchester, NY: Westchester Jewish Community Services (WJCS), Dr. Kane Tung has extensive personal and professional experience managing and bringing fulfillment to individuals and caregivers of Developmental Disabilities. Kane’s style was also profoundly shaped by his years of work with Older Adults at Long Island Jewish Hospital and nursing homes as he specialized in Grief and End of Life cases bringing all events of a client’s life together to make sense of it honestly and genuinely. It was during that time he first came up with integrating Virtual Reality with therapy to the benefit and wonder of his clients.

Forming VRCAPS, Kane is excited to be marrying his clinical practice and wide spectrum of experiences from being a Producer at SyFy Channel and SONY, as well as a newspaper journalist and playwright to his considerable work with the early Anime and Gaming community.

Clinical Director
anthony@vrcaps.org

Anthony Dimitrion specializes in developmentally appropriate therapy services for children and adolescents ages 3-17 that are creative and play-based. Through play and art children are also able to work on developing concrete skills that can support them outside of session. Believing in a team approach to therapy, he regularly incorporates parents through monthly one-on-one parent consultation sessions and weekly check-in sheets and with school staff and other professionals that are important in the child’s treatment. Anthony is expanding his skills pursuing a doctoral degree in Marriage and Family Therapy with a concentration in Child and Adolescent Therapy at Northcentral University.

He has extensive training and supervision in play therapy, child development, and attachment-focused parenting techniques. Some of Anthony’s areas of expertise include: ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, difficulties with peers, academic concerns, disruptive behavior, and LGBTQ+ Youth.

Prior to becoming the Clinical Director at VRCaPS, Anthony was the Associate Program Director and a Mental Health Clinician at a busy outpatient mental health center in New York City.

He strongly believes that when an individual and family are provided a safe and supportive therapeutic environment, they will have the security needed for growth and healing.
