#LetsTalkAboutIt

If you don't have the skills to respond to a false alarm or handle the fight-or-flight response, it's harder to reduce anxiety and overcome phobias.
The part of our brain that triggers panic is not the rationale part of our brain. So, we have to have the courage to face what we're afraid of-which can be hard to do on your own.
Dr. Elizabeth McMahon shares how virtual reality therapy can help treat anxiety.
