Kane Tung, Ph.D.
Founder, Clinical Director
kane@vrcaps.org
As a father of an Autistic child 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.

Nathan "Nth" Bar Fields
Director of Operations
nth@vrcaps.org
Nth is the director of operations for VRCaPS, where he oversees VRCaPS’ special projects, like our forthcoming VR Therapy OS program and developing our village in New York for autistic and gifted people.
He has an extensive background working with neurodivergent populations as either a board director on-, grant writer for-, or project developer for- numerous organizations that focus on autistic, ADHD, dyslexic, gifted, or twice-exceptional populations. He is himself neurodivergent and has developed or evaluated numerous programs for cognitive ability organizations like GHF Learners, Elysian Trust, Prometheus Society, and numerous schools and bootcamps.
It is through his work with these organizations that he recognized the lack of much needed psychological and emotional counseling services for neuroatypical people, and that revelation led him ultimately join VRCaPS as a way to address the issue.
Outside of working on the business side for VRCaPS, Nth is formerly a neurofeedback technician who principally worked with kids diagnoses with ADHD.
