Fear of Crowds The megalopolis of the modern world, where millions of strangers live side by side, is a phenomenon so new that our evolution has not even begun to adapt to it yet. So being anxious about crowds and large numbers of people is a natural, instinctive response. But likely to severely curtail your enjoyment of life if you have to mingle with others often - which most of us do. This session will help people overcome this ancient response and learn to feel comfortably at home in large groups.

 

Fear of Death In spite of an apparently non-stop diet of death both real and fictional on our television screens and news media, death is still very much a taboo subject.

Although fear of death is a natural response, when it becomes a constant pre-occupation it can get in the way of living. This session will help people whose lives have become crippled by their fear of death to rediscover how to live a rich and full life.

 

Fear of Doctors Many people avoid going to the doctor, even when they know they should seek advice and help. The medical profession hasn’t always helped matters, either. They can often appear intimidating and superior - attitudes, which do nothing to soothe the fears of someone who is worrying about what, their symptoms may signify. Whatever reasons people may have for putting off consulting their doctor, it's clearly a risky strategy in the long term. This session will help people overcome the barriers that may be keeping them from seeking essential advice and help.

 

Fear of Dogs Everyone knows that dogs are man's best friend, so it is distressing to find oneself terrified of them. Some people are so frightened of dogs that they cannot bear to be in the same room as one.  However, knowing that your fear may be irrational, it’s still difficult to overcome it on your own. Hypnosis can help you address and overcome this fear.

 

Fear of Driving Fear of driving is more common than most people realize.

Fear Of Emotions Emotions can overwhelm us and if we don't know how to manage and channel them very well we can become fearful of getting swamped, by our own feelings or those of other people.

This session will help you learn to be more at ease with the expression of feelings, so you can enjoy life in all its richness.

 

Fear of Escalators Everywhere you go in the modern world you'll find yourself facing an escalator. A wonderful invention, but not so enjoyable if you're frightened of it. This session will help you to address your fear of moving staircases.

 

Fear of Failure  Everybody has experienced wanting to do something, but feeling so worried about it going wrong that that just can’t bring themselves to take action. If this only happens to you once in a while, that's perhaps not so terrible, but for some people it can take over their lives. They won't try new things, won't meet new people, won't seek a better job, won't ask for a rise, because they just can't bear the thought of failing. This session will help people free themselves from the shackles of this unnecessary anxiety and have a go at what they want to do.

 

Fear of Fainting Many more people worry about fainting than actually faint. That worry can cause more distress than a real faint, but their fear is often misplaced, as relatively few people have a condition that makes them faint.

This session offers a safe and effective way for people to calm down those fears and avoid becoming uncomfortably light-headed.

​

This session offers an effective way to reprogram your emotional response to the idea of flying so that you can feel more comfortable when in the air, and beforehand too.

 

Fear of General Anesthesia It's perfectly natural to be concerned about going under anesthetic. Deliberately allowing another person to make you unconscious - a state where you neither know what is happening nor can control anything which happens - feels like an inherently risky thing to do. Even when you know exactly why anesthetic is necessary and how it will help you, it can be difficult to overcome powerful feelings of apprehension. This session will help anyone who needs to overcome fear of anesthesia.

 

Fear of Germs Good hygiene is essential for a healthy life, of course, but excessive fear of germs can seriously restrict people's lives. Human bodies have evolved to deal with most bacterial and viral infections but it’s the emotional trauma that needs to be dealt with, and this session will offer that help.

 

Fear of Going Crazy That's an expression you may hear any day of the week. We use the words 'mad' and 'crazy' rather loosely. This can give the impression that madness is very common and you might catch it like a cold. The thought of going mad is scary. People who are under pressure may read their own reactions to strong emotion as signs of madness, and worry that they really are going crazy. This session will help people who have become worried that they might be 'going mad' recover a sense of balance in their lives.

 

Fear Of Growing Up The world of the 'grown-ups' can seem big and scary. Not to say dull and dreary. It's not surprising that some people do not relish the thought of growing up, and even feel afraid. This session will help you come to terms with your fear, but you will actually embrace what adulthood has to offer  - without having to quash the child-like spirit within you.

 

Fear of Heights A fear of heights is basically a defense mechanism that keeps us alert when in a potentially dangerous situation looms, but when this fear becomes overwhelming it can be both debilitating and limiting. This session will help you by toning down your automatic response of fear at the thought of being in a high place.

 

Fear of Hospitals Fear of hospitals is very common. Although hospitals are places which focus on helping sick or injured people get well, the experience of going there can often be traumatic for everyone involved, patients, their family, and even friends. In such a situation, people often make an association between the fears that they felt about the health situation, and the fact that the experience was taking place in a hospital. This may cause them to develop a serious fear of hospitals. This session is for anyone whose fear of hospitals may be preventing them from going for necessary treatment.

 

Fear of Laughter Laughter is a wonderful human capacity, and a source of much joy in life. But laughter can also be confusing, and it can be used as a weapon, to hurt rather than to amuse. This leads to some people becoming afraid of the sound of laughter, sometimes to the point that their lives are seriously restricted as they attempt to avoid situations where people might be laughing. This session will help  people who are fearful of laughter train themselves to be comfortably indifferent and at ease with it.

 

Fear Of Loud Noises Everybody gets startled by sudden loud sounds sometimes, but for some people it can become a full blown fear, making them anxious when they even think about fireworks, or balloons popping. This session will offer people a simple and effective way to overcome their fear and relax about hearing sudden noises.

 

Fear of Making Mistakes Of course, it's nice to get things right, but will the world really end if we sometimes get things wrong? Many people fear it will. They are driven by a pressure to be perfect, to do everything well, never to make a slip or a fall. The irony is, trying to get it all right, all the time, actually leads to making more errors! This session will help people get themselves out of the patterns of perfectionism, so that they can do things well without crushing themselves.

​

Fear of Mice Fear of mice is a staple of stand-up comedy and cartoon humor. We all laugh at the  poor person who flees up on to the kitchen table on the merest suspicion of a whisker peeping out from the skirting and stands there shrieking and trembling. This session will help those people overcome their real and very powerful fear to become indifferent to these and other rodents.

 

Fear of Missing Out As social media drives interconnection around the world, it's now easier than ever to see what everyone else is up to. But this also means it's easier for clients to compare themselves to others which could lead to the notion that everyone else is having more fun. This session will help you find satisfaction in your own life, and stop doubting your choices and rejecting your experiences.
