Cevap

Panic disorder pairs with interoceptive exposure therapy; Trichotillomania pairs with habit reversal training; Obsessive-compulsive disorder pairs with exposure and response prevention; Post-traumatic stress disorder pairs with eye movement desensitization and reprocessing.
Each correct pair links a distinct diagnostic presentation to its specialized, evidence-based behavioral therapy. Interoceptive exposure directly targets the fear of bodily sensations in panic disorder. Habit reversal training addresses the semi-automatic urges in body-focused repetitive behaviors like trichotillomania. Exposure and response prevention breaks the cycle of obsessions and neutralizing compulsions in OCD. Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) facilitates the processing of traumatic memories in PTSD.

Match the established diagnosis to its primary specialized psychotherapeutic intervention.
