Summary:

In cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), exposures are the gold standard for treating anxiety related disorders, including obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), panic, and phobias. However, clients are often resistant or fearful when starting treatment, and, as a result, even therapists can develop "exposure phobia." In The Big Book of Exposures two anxiety specialists provide 400 creative, innovative, and easy-to-implement exposure exercises to help clients--and clinicians--move past their fears, energize treatment sessions, and improve client outcomes.
