Fears & Phobias Support With Hypnotherapy

Helping you shift unhelpful reactions and feel safer in everyday situations.

Many fears and phobias develop from past experiences or learned responses that start to feel automatic, intense, or out of proportion to the situation. These reactions can limit your choices, create avoidance, or leave you feeling overwhelmed in moments others find manageable.

My support programmes help you understand what fuels these responses and gently shift how your mind and body react, allowing you to feel safer, calmer, and more in control.

Rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach, each programme is shaped around your unique triggers and experiences, whether your fear relates to specific situations, objects, sensations, or moments that cause sudden spikes of anxiety.

Your Experience Is Valid

I may not experience these fears myself, but I’ve seen how much they can impact someone’s life, and how often people feel embarrassed or “silly” for having them. These reactions are far more common and real than they may seem.

How I Support Fear-Based Responses

When working with intense fears or phobic reactions, my focus is on:

  • Understanding how your fear shows up in everyday situations.
  • Exploring the triggers that set off automatic responses.
  • Helping you create calmer, more grounded reactions.
  • Supporting you in building confidence and a sense of safety.
  • Encouraging steady, sustainable change over time.

I take these fears seriously, they’re real, and never something I dismiss. You don’t need to justify them or find the “right” words; we work at a pace that feels safe for you.

Feeling anxious about taking the first step? You’re welcome to email me with any questions and I can call you back to talk things through. Many first-time clients find this helpful, giving them the chance to understand the process, discuss their fears, and feel more at ease before moving forward. You can also begin with a single session, allowing you to experience the work at your own pace, with no pressure or expectation to continue unless it feels right for you.

Areas I Can Support

Below is a brief overview of the fear-related challenges I can help you with.

Emetophobia

Man struggling with work related anxiety

Emetophobia can lead to constant worry about nausea, illness, or situations that feel unsafe or unpredictable. These reactions often create avoidance and heightened anxiety. I help clients understand their triggers, soften automatic fear responses, and feel more confident in everyday situations.

Needle Phobia

Woman suffering from depression

A fear of needles can make medical appointments, tests, or even the thought of injections feel overwhelming. This reaction is more common than many realise. I support clients in easing anticipatory anxiety, calming physical responses, and approaching medical situations with greater ease and confidence.

Dental Phobia

stress can lead to mental health

Dental phobia often stems from past experiences or a heightened sense of vulnerability, making even routine appointments feel incredibly stressful. I help clients work through the underlying fear, ease tension around dental environments, and develop a calmer, more manageable and confident response to treatment.

Acrophobia

boss explodes at his employees!

Acrophobia can trigger intense fear in high places, sometimes even when there’s no real danger present. These reactions can limit travel, activities, or day-to-day movement. I support clients in understanding what activates the fear, reducing automatic responses, and building confidence in situations involving height.

Arachnophobia

mental health causing insomnia

Arachnophobia can create intense fear or panic when seeing a spider, anticipating one, or even thinking about them. This reaction often feels automatic and hard to control. I support clients in easing these fear responses, reducing avoidance, and feeling calmer and more grounded in situations involving spiders.

What to Expect From Your Fear & Phobia Support Sessions

When working with fear-based reactions, my focus is on:

  • Offering a calm, understanding space where your experience is valued.
  • Using approaches that fit how your fear shows up in real life.
  • Offering strategies to help you feel more grounded when anxiety rises.
  • Providing supportive check-ins via messaging if you need them.
  • Sharing recordings tailored to support your progress.

You don’t need to have everything figured out, we gently explore what feels challenging and move at a pace that feels safe and manageable for you.
