Description
Gradual exposure is an essential part of any cognitive-behavioral intervention. However, many school counselors may feel uncomfortable implementing these techniques because it means having the student face and overcome distress. This hour-long presentation will review best practices for providing psychoeducation about gradual exposure, developing a fear hierarchy, identifying different types of exposure activities, and supporting a student through the exposure process.
