Summary
In this session, the patient is taught several emotion regulation techniques; diaphragmatic breathing for relaxation, emotion distancing, and the use of adaptive emotional states. Two forms of behavioral activation are taught: encouraging exercise and doing wall push-ups, and prescribing pleasurable activities. (Of note, throughout the treatment we have the patient do behavioral activation. We consider such actions as stretching and interoceptive exposure to be a form of behavioral activation in that they allow the patient to enter a new zone of experience and involve activity.)
