I discovered some valuable techniques performed by the counselor. The counselor quickly identified the automatic thoughts of the client. The counselor utilized scaling to determine the most frightening and least frightening. The counselor utilized decatastrophizing (What if...?) and homework (thought record) for the client to practice between sessions. The counselor helped the client develop adaptive responses (self talk) to gain control over the presented issue during times of anxiety.

I think that it was effective for him to actually break down the amount of time that she has before she has to actually start speaking . But when he tried to break the levels down by her anxiety level, it seemed confusing. I wonder would the same progressive meetings technique have worked without the explanation of people per minute. The escape plan may be good for this client to start with, along with the self-talk.
