Pour traiter la phobie, le thérapeute comportementaliste place le patient dans des situations de plus en plus critiques, au fil des séances. Par exemple, si le patient a peur des chiens, on lui propose en début de thérapie, après relaxation, de penser à un chien vu de loin. Au cours d'une autre séance, il pensera à un chien vu de près. Plus tard encore, on le confrontera à la présence d'un chien réel, de plus en plus près, et ainsi de suite. On passe à une étape suivante lorsque la précédente ne suscite plus de réactions de peur significative. 4, record 1, French, - th%C3%A9rapeute%20comportementaliste
