Exposure
Exposure is controlled and gradual contact with a stimulus that a person avoids in order to reduce the fear or avoidance response.
Definicja
Exposure is an important element of cognitive-behavioral therapy in anxiety disorders, phobias and selected avoidance problems. It involves safe, planned contact with a situation, memory or stimulus that triggers anxiety, without performing typical protective behaviors. The goal is not to brutally "throw yourself in the deep end", but to teach the nervous system that discomfort can descend without escape.
