What distinguishes a fear from a phobia? How do I know if I have one? What treatments for phobias have proven most effective? These and many other questions are addressed in this guide to the complex issue of phobias—which come in many forms and many degrees of severity. Based on scientific and clinical research as well as patients' experiences, Phobias and How to Overcome Them delves into topics including:
- Recognizing the symptoms of phobias
- Stories of successful treatments
- Specific phobias both common and uncommon
- Medical evaluation and treatment of phobias
- The roles of counseling, psychotherapy, and cognitive-behavioral therap
- Other anxiety disorders and mood disorders that may underlie phobias
- Resources for additional help
In addition, Dr. Gardner provides an Anxiety Toolkit that can be used to combat and conquer phobias—offering new techniques and new hope for people who experience these debilitating fears that can not only affect physical health but also interfere with full and joyful participation in life.
