What criticism might be levied against using psychoanalysis to treat phobic disorders?
Psychoanalysis is always effective in treating phobic disorders due to its focus on past traumas.
Psychoanalysis might not effectively address phobias because they are often rooted in irrational fears rather than unconscious conflicts.
It does not provide any coping strategies to deal with the immediate fear response.
Psychoanalysis tends to ignore patients' conscious feelings about their fears.
