How does exposure therapy start?

What will the first session be like? I'm terrified.

It should start with a conversation about what exposure will involve, how it works, and who is in control. Exposure works best when you are driving it, determining what to do and when, and your therapist acts more as a guide and supporter along the way.

Bia can help here but providing a safe and controlled environment to practice exposure. It gets you and your therapist on the same page, or if you are doing exposure by yourself, sets you up with a clean starting point where you can build up at your own pace
