Briefly describe what is involved in the three-step process of systematic desensitization.
A. The first step of systematic desensitization is learning to relax. If an individual is afraid of something, e.g. spiders, he needs to learn to relax when he faces the object of his fear. A common relaxation technique is deep breathing or chest breathing. B. The second step. In this step of systematic desensitization, the patient is asked to list 10-15 triggers of a specific phobia or situation and rate each trigger from 0-10 where 0 represents no anxiety at all and 10 represents extreme anxiety. The patient will then rate each of the above steps from 0-10 according to the level of his anxiety. C. The third step.In this step of systematic desensitization, the patient is asked to imagine himself being exposed to his object of fear or a fearful situation. For the patient who is afraid of spiders, he is advised to close his eyes and imagine himself in a room alone with a huge spider. When he feels anxious, he is asked to practice the relaxation exercise. D.After each imaginal exposure, the patientasked to rate his fear of spiders. When the patient's rating for the fear drops to a specific value, the therapist moves toward the next step of the anxiety hierarchy. For example, the patient is asked to look at images of spiders or even a dead spider. The therapy continues until the patient feels no fear when he is exposed to real spiders. The patient is advised to practice deep breathing and other relaxation exercises whenever he is exposed to spiders so that his anxiety will gradually be replaced with relaxation.
