The behavioral therapy is Exposure-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (E-CBT) Program. The E-CBT program is organised into six steps to be completed over 12 weekly modules with support from an online clinician (Psychologist). The first step contains a rationale for the treatment and instructions on self-observation. Steps 2, 3 and 4 contain a presentation of a psychological model of IBS and continued self-observation exercises. The fifth step covers exposure exercises, divided into three categories; (1) exercises that provoke symptoms, (2) abolishment of behaviors that serve to control symptoms, (3) exposure to situations where symptoms were unwanted. The final step (Step 6) includes how to handle relapses into avoidance behaviors and how to maintain a widened behavioral repertoire.
