Hypnosis for
Fears & Phobias
Regain control. Retrain your mind.
Short, targeted hypnotherapy that helps you rapidly reduce fear responses, calm the nervous system, and take confident action, without years of talk therapy.
Who this is for
If a specific fear or phobia is limiting your life, flying, driving, heights, public speaking, needles, dogs, confined spaces, medical/dental visits, performance situations, social settings, this page is for you. Whether the fear appeared suddenly after an event or crept in over time, we’ll work at the root cause so you can feel safe and in control again.
Why hypnosis works for fears & phobias
A phobia is a conditioned response stored in the subconscious. Logic says “I’m fine,” but the body fires a threat alarm. Hypnosis lets us:
Access the subconscious patterns driving the alarm.
Desensitise and re-associate the trigger with calm and safety.
Rebuild a new automatic response (calm breathing, clear thinking, confident action).
This is not willpower. It’s reprogramming the response where it actually lives.
Common fears I help with
Flying (aviophobia)
Public speaking / performance
Driving (including motorways, bridges, roundabouts)
Heights
Needles, medical or dental procedures
Dogs or specific animals
Claustrophobia (lifts, MRI, tunnels)
Social anxiety & panic triggers
Contamination / germs (where appropriate and ethically safe)
If yours isn’t listed, ask, phobias are highly individual but follow the same fixable pattern.
