Answer 1

I believe the answer is  systematic desensitization.
 systematic desensitization is being done by gradually increasing the exposure of the patient toward the cause of the phobia,
By forcing the patient to confront the source of their fear, the therapy aimed to make the patient realize the irrationally within the fear that they currently experience.

Answer 2

C. Bernice will most likely find success in the SYSTEMATIC DESENSITIZATION. It is a therapeutic technique developed by Wolpe during 1950s based on the principle of classical conditioning. This therapy aims to remove the fear response of a phobia, and substitute a relaxation response to the conditional stimulus gradually using counter conditioning. There are three phases to the treatment:

1.The patient is taught a deep muscle relaxation technique and breathing exercises. E.g. control over breathing, muscle detensioning or meditation.

2.The patient creates a fear hierarchy starting at stimuli that create the least anxiety (fear) and building up in stages to the most fear provoking images.

3. The patient works their way up the fear hierarchy, starting at the least unpleasant stimuli and practicing their relaxation technique as they go.
