This technique has three phases:
- The patient is taught deep relaxation and breathing exercises.
- The patient creates a fear hierarchy starting at stimuli that provoke the least anxiety and building up to the most fear provoking ones. The patient starts at the bottom of the hierarchy with the least unpleasant stimuli and practices the relaxation technique.
- The patient practices this relaxation until the stimuli doesn't provoke any anxiety and then he continues with the next stimuli in the hierarchy until he reaches the top stimuli and the anxiety is removed.
In this example, Gary found out that his job requires air travel and he's afraid to fly. His psychologist will use systematic desensitization, therefore, the first step will have to do with teaching Gary deep relaxation techniques and breathing exercises, this technique is called progressive relaxation. Therefore, the correct answer will be d. trained Gary in a technique called progressive relaxation
