FEAR OF EMBARRASSING SITUATIONS
Some people fear embarrassing events based on their individual characteristic features. An example of this would be: “I always have to go to the bathroom when that’s not possible” (in a meeting, on a plane, at the theater, on the subway). Another example would be: “When I worry about needing the bathroom, I need to go even more; and then I go five times and can barely leave my home anymore.” Or even: "I’m so worried about coughing at the theater, my throat starts to tickle ... and then I really have to cough."

Together, we’ll come up a way out of these tricky situations. I’ll provide you with exercises and techniques that will enable you to deal with such situations differently.
