Virtual Exposure Resources
While using videos for exposure isn't a perfect solution, it still offers valuable practice that is far better than having no exposure at all. To get the most out of these exercises, contact your therapist who can help you tailor your exposure and learning activities to fit your needs. Please note that the videos linked here are not owned by the me. They are available on YouTube and some links may be removed from time to time. I update my inks every six months. You should use large screen (no phone!) for an immersive experience. Some videos provide a 360-degree view.

Fear of Flying
For many people the fear of flying is less about fear of an accident and more about fear that they will not be able to tolerate the experience of being on a plane. Below is a series of YouTube videos that can help you experience the cabin before you find yourself inside.
