An exposure therapy does not mean to place the spider exactly in front of the eyes or on the heart. It means introducing it in such a way that the patient is at ease and feels safe. In case of spiders first they are placed inside a cage in the same room so the patient is relaxed and doesn't have to worry about anything.
