Brief Summary: We are interested in investigating the functional brain abnormalities of height phobia Subjects will be have a functional MRI scan before and after a course of treatment with behavioral therapy
Detailed Description: The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of in vivo exposure therapy on the functional brain activity of subjects with height phobia using a fear provocation paradigm We expect differential activation of the fear circuitry in height phobics compared to non-phobic controls and that successful behavioral therapy will normalize the heightened fear response in height phobia
