About This Book

Panic disorder and phobia are difficulties that are commonly encountered in our consulting rooms. There is an ongoing debate concerning the lack of provision within the NHS to help those with mental health problems. This book puts forward a different method of recovery called systematic desensitisation, which is rarely covered by the many books that are available on the subject. Rhona M. Fear presents this method both as a former patient and as a therapist of almost thirty years' standing. It can be learned and used highly successfully by practitioners to help alleviate panic disorder and phobia.
