You really want a treatment that involves some form
of exposure because we know through many, many
years of research that exposure-oriented treatments are
wonderful for anxiety spectrum disorders, and there's a lot
of different anxieties out there
that exposure therapy works for.
We'd want a treatment that has some component of exposure.
We'd want a treatment that doesn't necessarily involve
too much coping because coping is another form of avoidance,
or it can be seen as another form of avoidance.
We want an intervention where you're going to feel
a little bit challenged because we're trying
to change the way you interact with the world,
and we don't really get to change
unless you get a little bit challenged.
