AP Success - AP Psychology: Exposure Therapies At Work (Units 2, 3, 5)

Explain how each of the following concepts relates to this scenario. 
Samantha has a fear of public speaking, which has been affecting her performance at work. She decides to seek help from a therapist who specializes in treating phobias. During her therapy sessions, Samantha is gradually introduced to scenarios involve speaking in front of others, starting with a small group. At the same time, she is also practicing mindfulness techniques to help her focus on the present moment and reduce her anxiety.
After several weeks of therapy, Samantha is asked to give a presentation at work. As she prepares for her presentation, she notices that she feels much less anxious. During the presentation, she focuses on the content of her speech and the reactions of her audience, rather than her own anxiety.
