The use of the anxiety meter to reduce anxiety.
The use of the Anxiety Meter (AM) is taught to clients to reduce anxiety. At first the AM is used as part of the self-control triad. It is then used alone to reduce anxiety. A rationale for the use of the AM is presented together with a description of the procedure. The AM is a self-control strategy for use in treating agoraphobia and panic reaction. A case example is also presented.
