Answer:
desensitization and reciprocal inhibition.
Step-by-step explanation:
Desensitization is based on the behavioral principle of counterconditioning, which states that the individual can overcome maladaptive anxiety caused by a situation or object by gradually approximating dreaded situations into a psychophysiological state that inhibits anxiety.
In this technique the client is trained to relax, is placed in contact with a hierarchy of anxiety-generating situations, and is asked to relax while imagining each of them, thus the patient reaches a state of complete relaxation when exposed to the stimulus that causes the anxiety response. In this case the negative anxiety reaction is inhibited by the state of relaxation, a process called reciprocal inhibition.
