So how did Maggie get to the point where she
could take the elevator to work?
Dr.:
She had to face her fears. After talking about
her fears and learning to relax, she started to watch
the elevator. She just watched people getting on and
off, smiling and talking with others. The next day, she
watched it again. But then we stepped in the elevator,
together. It didn’t go anywhere—we just let the doors
open and close several times. She was nervous, but by
breathing deeply and relaxing, she was in control. The
next day, we repeated the first two steps, and then finally
took the elevator up, but only one floor. We repeated this
over several days, adding one floor each day.
