Provided are a device, system, and method for treating a patient having posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or other such psychiatric disorder. An event being recounted by the patient is recorded and a sensory environment of the patient is controlled so as to administer exposure therapy to the patient. Patient mental state may be monitored during administration of the exposure therapy to the patient, and the exposure therapy may be varied in correspondence to the monitored mental state of the patient. In one embodiment, hierarchy assembly means creates a treatment hierarchy based on input from the patient, and hierarchy navigation means navigates within the treatment hierarchy in response to the mental state of the patient.

L'invention concerne un dispositif, un système et un procédé pour traiter un patient souffrant d'un état de stress post-traumatique (ESPT) ou tout autre trouble psychiatrique de ce type. Un événement raconté par le patient est enregistré et un environnement sensoriel du patient est contrôlé afin d'administrer une thérapie par exposition au patient. L'état mental du patient peut être surveillé pendant une administration de la thérapie par exposition au patient, et la thérapie par exposition peut être modifiée en correspondance avec l'état mental surveillé du patient. Selon un mode de réalisation, des moyens d'ensemble de hiérarchie créent une hiérarchie de traitement fondée sur une entrée de la part du patient, et des moyens de navigation dans la hiérarchie naviguent dans la hiérarchie de traitement en réponse à l'état mental du patient.
