Hello Jazlynne, Provided that, systematic desensitization is a therapy that is a process of a therapist would ease a patient into relaxing one’s muscles in order to allow the progressing of constructing an anxiety hierarchy relaxing state in which one is desensitized to each imagines phobias (Meyers, 2012, pp. 551-552), I find this therapy to be less effective in assisting one in overcoming anxiety. I say this due to, the length in which one has to undergo therapy to obtain some sort of relief from an anxiety attack. To illustrate, my cousin who lives in Detroit, Michigan had a phobia of guns due to, the fact one was pulled on her in a bank robbery in 2012. Since the robbery she cannot stand to see a gun on television as well as, in reality.
