The purpose of this randomized control trial is to evaluate the impact of Virtual Reality (VR) Exposure Therapy (ET) on people with epilepsy who experience epilepsy/seizure-specific (ES) interictal anxiety. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Can virtual reality exposure therapy (VR-ET) help reduce ES-interictal anxiety in this population? 2. Are the study procedures sufficiently simple for participants to follow? Study Design Summary: * Fourteen (14) participants will be randomized into either an Experimental arm (receiving VR-ET) or Control arm * Participants will be expected to have VR-ET twice a day (5 min/session) for up to 10 days * Participants will complete self-reported questionnaires about anxiety, depression, quality life, and avoidance behaviours at baseline (T0), after completing their VR program (T2), and at a one-month follow-up (T3). * Participants will have a short interview with a researcher after completing their VR program (T2) as well as at a one-month follow-up (T3). Researchers will attempt to answer the study questions based on outcome measures taken at various timepoints and qualitative feedback from interviews.
