Exposure Intervention
Usual Care
Participants randomized to receive the Exposure Intervention will be scheduled to come to clinic for a 1-hour session for the intervention. During this time, they will receive psychoeducation and behavioral exposure to the Cesarean section procedure.

This involves the anesthesiologist meeting with the patient during a delivery planning meeting to provide patients with the opportunity to review anesthetic technique and ask questions.
