My Expert Service
|
|
Individual treatment of phobias which comprehensively explores what may have triggered the development of the fear, the ways in which the phobia may be impacting the client's life, either directly or through avoidance behaviors and the development of a treatment plan to combat the phobia. Systematic densensitization can be a very effective method of combatting an irrational fear. This is done by creating a hierarchy of feared stimuli and pairing each of this aversive stimuli with a relaxation response in a graduated fashion. Understanding the means of acquisition of a phobia can help a client to overcome it. Recognizing the actual or potential impact upon one's life, created by a phobia can provide the motivation needed for a person to overcome the phobia.
