“…Cognitive behavioural therapy, particularly in vivo exposure, is generally considered to be the treatment of choice for specific phobias (Barlow, Allen, & Basden, 2007; Wolitzky-Taylor, Horowitz, Powers, & Telch, 2008). However, because in vivo exposure is hardly possible for women with FoC, and the fact that EMDR therapy has been found to be effective for a wide variety of specific phobia subtypes (de Jongh, Holmshaw, Carswell, & Van Wijk, 2011; de Jongh, Ten Broeke, & Renssen, 1999; Doering, Ohlmeier, de Jongh, Hofmann, & Bisping, 2013), this may be a promising alternative. Thus far, controlled studies using EMDR therapy among pregnant women with FoC are lacking.…”
