Health Therapist Interview Question:

Do you know what is system desensitization?

Submitted by: Muhammad

System desensitization relies heavily on classical conditioning. It's often used to treat phobias. People are taught to replace a fear response to a phobia with relaxation responses. A person is first taught relaxation and breathing techniques. Once mastered, the therapist will slowly expose them to their fear in heightened doses while they practice these techniques.
