Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the use of virtual reality during chemotherapy treatment helps participants achieve an improvement in distress which may include unpleasant experience anxiety depression andor pain

Participants will

Be randomly assigned to one of two available groups virtual reality or standard of care
Participations will only be during one chemotherapy session
Those assigned to virtual reality

The research team will provide a virtual reality
The research team will provide guidance on how the headset works and will be available to assist with any questions or concerns
Participants will also be able to choose different relaxing backgrounds depending on their preference headset during the chemotherapy session for 15 to 30 minutes
Those assigned to the standard of care

Detailed Description: In recent decades new cancer cases have consistently risen Participants diagnosed with cancer commonly face psychological symptoms including distress anxiety and depression in addition to physical symptoms ie pain Importantly these symptoms might be exacerbated during chemotherapy sessions New innovative technological strategies have been under development to control the symptoms and improve quality of life Immersive virtual reality VR is a simulated experience that enables participants to interact with an artificial three-dimensional visual and auditory environment VR could be an innovative intervention to relieve psychological symptoms associated with chemotherapy
