Exposure Therapy

We are all afraid of something. It’s easier said than done to get over your fears. They didn’t grow on us easily and they will not go easily. It will take some time working on eliminating them or at least being able to live a good life with them and come to terms.

Courage is when someone is afraid, but they go for it anyway. Usually what happens afterwards is you realize there was nothing to be afraid of. Still, it may be hard to do again.

Exposure Therapy at Deslongchamps Recovery is offered to our clients who are paralyzed by their fears. Fears that they may not even know where they came from or when they got them. It takes some digging into us to follow the string of events to locate the origin of those fears.

Now anyone can easily sit there and start studying their past and pinpoint the events themselves sitting on their couch, that is if you can even remember what happened all that time ago. The truth is most people would rather die than go inside themselves and search, it can be a scary, sad, place to go for sure.

Even if they did find the events that scared them for life hiding in their pasts, finding them doesn’t get rid of them.

Through the use of various systematic techniques, a person is gradually exposed to the situation that causes them distress. 

The goal of exposure therapy is to create a safe environment in which a person can reduce anxiety, decrease avoidance of dreaded situations, and improve one’s quality of life.

The thought of getting rid of an addiction can be scary as well, especially if the addiction has been going on for a long time.

Through our wonderful therapists’ clients who suffer from fears and anxiety can overcome them.

Everything is going to be okay; we know you’re scared. We understand that, allow us to guide you through your fears, you deserve to live a great life, you have already suffered enough.
