Exposure therapy is a highly effective treatment for panic disorder, helping you regain control and reduce the frequency and intensity of panic attacks. At New Horizons Therapy NY, our compassionate therapists provide online exposure therapy tailored to your specific needs, guiding you through a gradual and personalized process of confronting the sensations and situations that trigger your panic.
​
How Exposure Therapy Works for Panic Disorder:
-
Identify your triggers: We'll work with you to understand the specific physical sensations, situations, or thoughts that trigger your panic attacks.
-
Create a gradual exposure plan: Together, we'll develop a step-by-step plan, starting with less intense exposures and gradually increasing the challenge.
-
Practice interoceptive exposure: You'll learn to safely induce physical sensations similar to those experienced during a panic attack, such as dizziness, rapid heart rate, or shortness of breath. This helps you learn that these sensations are not dangerous and that you can cope with them.
-
Confront feared situations: We'll support you in gradually facing situations you've been avoiding due to fear of panic, such as crowded places, driving, or being alone.
-
Develop coping strategies: You'll learn effective techniques to manage anxiety and fear during exposures, such as relaxation exercises, mindfulness, and cognitive restructuring.
