Abstract
The sparse empirical research on maintenance of treatment effects in behavior therapy is reviewed and a practical maintenance program for phobic clients is presented. Preliminary results with the program for 32 agoraphobic patients showed that the treatment effects had been maintained 6 months after conclusion of treatment.Keywords
