Topic 8.10
How do the behavioral and cognitive approaches to treating phobias differ?
Cognitive approach is more focused on unconscious thoughts than behavioral one.
Behaviorists focus on extinguishing fear response, while cognitive therapists address irrational thinking.
Behavioral therapy uses medication, but cognitive therapy does not.
