A helpful and practical guide to working on issues of anxiety and phobias, for anyone who’s ready to take their treatment to the next level. It provides step-by-step exercises, helping you learn about relaxation, exposure techniques, visualization, and how to overcome the negative, largely unconscious self-talk that helps reinforce feelings of fear and hopelessness.
The author also provides in-depth discussions about additional types of treatment options available to someone working on anxiety or a phobia, such as exercise, working with a therapist, and medications commonly prescribed. Well-written and fairly comprehensive, you may not need to buy another book on anxiety or phobias.
Softcover, 432 pages.
