When agoraphobia sets in, there may be some subconscious precipating events that trigger the phobia. Some examples are: the loss of confidence post a divorce or loss of a loved one, health anxiety issues, social anxiety issues, amongst many others.
For the treatment of extreme phobias, a combination of the following interventions can be helpful to address the issues. If the phobia is connected to a past fearful memory, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can be pivotal in overcoming the phobia, as it is helpful in reducing the emotional charge associated with the fearful memory. Thereafter, exposure desensitization therapy can be embarked on to allow the brain to habituate to the perceived fears of the phobia. Lastly, for individuals who struggle to do exposure therapy due to the intensity of their phobia, hypnotherapy, virtual reality and computer simulations can be used to ease them into overcoming their fears.
