CBT for Emetophobia

Through the use of various techniques, including cognitive restructuring, exposure therapy, and relaxation training, group members will learn to reduce their anxiety and fear around vomiting.
The group provides a safe and supportive environment for individuals to share their experiences and learn from one another. Members are encouraged to participate in group discussions, share their successes and challenges, and offer support to their peers. The group also provides an opportunity for individuals to practice their newly acquired skills in a supportive and non-judgmental environment.
CBT groups for emetophobia typically meet once a week for 60-90 minutes, with the duration of the group lasting for a set number of weeks, usually ranging from 8-12 weeks. Group members are expected to attend all sessions and complete assigned homework outside of group meetings.
