Exposure therapy is a technique used to help manage anxiety disorders or general fears. Exposure therapy aims to face the patient with fear-related stimuli over time. Gradually, after repetitive exposure to fear, the patient will become desensitised to it. Along with anxiety, exposure therapy has been effective in treating obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and different forms of phobias.
There are various associated with exposure therapy. In vivo exposure requires a patient to face an object or stimuli of fear directly. In contrast, imaginal exposure requires a patient to imagine fear-related stimuli. There are also instances where sensations are brought on in the patient to isolate certain feelings associated with the fear. Virtual reality has also become a popular tool in exposure therapy. After undertaking a course of exposure therapy, patients can rationalise their fears better.
