Another approach emphasizes behavioral experiments and gradual exposure to feared situations, which can reduce avoidance and build confidence over time.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Emberly works with each person to identify goals, test what helps, and adjust methods as needed. This collaborative process aims to match techniques to a person's needs, preferences, and daily life so progress can be practical and sustainable.
