One of the most challenging aspects of conducting implosive therapy is that it requires a therapist:

b. to terminate distressing images at specific points in the anxiety cycle.
c. to intensify distressing images or scenes to evoke maximal levels of anxiety and stay with it until the anxiety and other emotions dissipate.
d. to terminate the exposure to distressing scenes at the peak of anxiety.
