Sponsor's own description
Anxiety problems are a major concern of youth mental health given that the prevalence of anxiety disorders in Dutch children aged up to 12 is approximately 4 to 8 percent. In this group, specific phobias are among the most common. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with exposure as its key ingredient, takes a prominent place in national guidelines for the treatment of anxiety disorders. These guidelines are based on empirical support that exposure is effective in the treatment of specific phobia. Yet, despite the empirical evidence of its efficacy, a gap between theory and practice remains, with exposure-based CBT being underused in clinical practice. For example, a recent Dutch survey found that exposure was mostly practiced outside the formal therapy sessions as homework assignment. It is questionable whether this is effective, given that it might be hard for children to do these assignments independently (e.g., without the help of a therapist or their parents). This study therefore proposes to evaluate the effectiveness of different degrees of therapist and parent involvement during exposure, comparing therapist supported exposure with self-supported exposure with and without the use of parents as co-therapists.
