CBT Exposure Techniques for Anxiety Disorders

In this video from a recent Beck Institute workshop, Dr. Judith Beck and Dr. Aaron Beck discuss exposure techniques for anxiety disorders. Using a patient example, Dr. Aaron Beck illustrates in-vivo exposure with a patient with a bridge phobia. Dr. Judith Beck reminds us that exposure techniques can also be employed in the therapy office using imaginal techniques as well as with the help of the internet by, for example, having the patient view videos related to specific phobias (e.g., a video of a person driving on a shaky bridge).
