generalized anxiety disorder
C

Explanation

Exposure therapy gradually and safely helps a person confront memories, situations, or reminders that cause fear, reducing avoidance and distress over time. It is commonly used for post-traumatic stress disorder, where trauma reminders can trigger intense fear or anxiety. Generalized anxiety disorder may also be treated with therapy, but exposure is especially associated with PTSD among these choices.
