GRADUAL EXPOSURE PROGRAM OUTLINE FOR PUBLIC SPEAKING ANXIETY:
SESSION ONE - Get comfortable hearing your voice in PUBLIC BY
RESPONDING TO VERY SIMPLE QUESTIONS WHILE SEATED. The questions (i.e.,
name, occupation, where you live, etc.) require little thought or
content.
SESSION TWO - Learning to stand confidently before a group. You will
stand, with several others and respond to simple questions. As your
confidence increases, one by one, each person standing will sit, until
you are standing alone. You will continue until this begins to feel
comfortable.
SESSION THREE- This exercise is the same as the previous one except
you start by standing alone.
SESSION FOUR - Gestures and Movement. Enhance your message, decrease
tension and project a confident demeanor incorporating non-verbal
skills.
