Find a Therapist
Finding a therapist you trust may take time, but the only way to find one is to search. Your life is worth the time to find a therapist.
We recommend using a web resource to identify therapists near you, or therapists providing teletherapy. Next, reach out to therapists and ask if they have experience treating phobia, emetophobia, or OCD, specifically using ERP or ACT. Most therapists will offer a free consultation to understand if you are a good fit for each other.
Types of Therapy
Several forms of therapy have been shown to be effective in treating emetophobia.
- ERP - Exposure and Response Prevention: ERP 'unlearns' the anxiety response of triggers by breaking the avoidance cycle. ERP works by taking small steps of exposure, reducing anxiety response over time.
- ACT - Acceptance and Commitment Therapy: ACT focuses on not controlling feelings, instead noticing and accepting them through intentional awareness and choices. ACT dismantles the avoidance cycle by moving towards fear.
- CBT - Cognitive Behavioral Therapy: CBT teaches you coping skills for dealing with different problems. It focuses on how your thoughts, beliefs and attitudes affect your feelings and actions
Bia
Bia combines techniques from ERP, ACT, and CBT. Learn core concepts in short lessons, and practice new skills in interactive exercises. Bia can be used with or without the aide of a therapist.
If you are currently in therapy, Bia can be a great tool to help you apply your skills and track your progress.
If you are not in therapy, Bia is an easy way to start on your journey and explore what is possible.
