Watch your gamer thrive—online and in real life.

Your Concerns, Solved

CHALLENGE YOU FACE
HOW LIGHTMARE HELPS
“My child games alone and struggles socially.”
Guided groups (4–6) where mentors teach teamwork, conversation cues, and problem-solving—while they game.
“They’re anxious about meeting new people.”
Small, mixed-gender sessions with peers who think similarly; entry activities ease them in at their own pace.
“I need something that actually sticks.”
90% of participants stay beyond the first term because they’re having genuine fun.
“Is it safe and NDIS-approved?”
Yes. Clinically informed mentors, private servers, thorough session reports, and full NDIS compliance.
