Hypnotherapy for phobias

Hypnotherapy delivered by Derek Chapman — Master Hypnotist, and a Consulting Hypnotist who has helped over 8,000 people free themselves from thoughts and behaviours which hold them back.

Phobia hypnotherapy

There’s nothing wrong with feeling afraid. It’s a valuable warning mechanism. As humans, we wouldn’t have lasted this long without it.

But here’s the thing:

Irrational fears interfere with life. Phobias about spiders, heights, loud noises, fear of flying, driving… They restrict your freedom. Let’s do something about it.

Hypnotherapy for phobias aims to deal with the issue permanently. You can view what you fear from a safe place, put it into perspective, and eliminate it.

Think of it as an MOT for your mind.

Commitment to change is the first step towards a happier life. It costs £75 for an initial no-pressure meeting. Are you ready to take that first step?

Stop fears and phobias

You probably know already that the phobia doesn’t make logical sense. Your mind, however, has different ideas.

Hypnosis for phobias rewires the mind. You find the source of your phobia and gently confront the fear in a state of calm relaxation. It stops being frightening, so you won’t feel afraid anymore.

So far, mind coaching has worked for more than 8,000 people. It will work for you too. Here’s why:

It puts your phobia into perspective
You’ll have the power to confront the fear calmly and safely
Your subconscious mind learns that it’s nothing to be afraid of
The fear is eliminated
You’re free to live the life you want

You have a choice. Stay put — or do something which will change the situation. Imagine the relief.

Actually, don’t just imagine the relief. Book an initial 60-minute meeting to see how we get on together. It’s a positive decision and a step towards a life that’s free from irrational fear.

How hypnotherapy and mind coaching for phobias works

During hypnosis, you are completely in control, able to break out of the trance at any time.

You’ll feel deeply relaxed, yet also in a state of intense focus. It’s this hyper-concentration which opens your mind to new ideas and positive suggestions. They connect with your unconscious mind to change the way you feel and react to the phobia.

After just one session, you’ll notice a difference in your thinking, and after a few sessions, the changes can be transformative.

Let’s do something to improve your life. Book an initial 60-minute meeting to see how we get on together. It’s a positive decision. You deserve to be happy.

What Clients Say

"I would highly recommend Derek to anyone going through some hard times, mental health issues, or phobias they want to get rid of. I went to Derek this Summer when my mental health hit the roof from different situations, after 4 years of failed CBT Therapy. I simply had enough and his methods of helping really helped me. He also rid my phobia of the Dentist as well, it went within the hour! Recently I had some down moments due to events and what with Christmas coming up. Again Derek got me through it! Now I can’t wait to get the decorations out. Thank you Derek!"

"Honestly couldn’t recommend Derek enough! He helped me with so much, massive thank you to him for helping me overcome anxiety, phobias and to learn to love myself, thank you!"

"For years I have had a phobia of Dentists / Doctors needles caused by a traumatic experience, to the point I have bitten a doctor. And refused to go to the dentist until I was on that much pain from the tooth I wasn’t scared of the needle. I also hated having my wrists touched which I never linked to having my arms pinned down by a dentist as a child. After my treatment I booked in at the dentist and got told I needed a root canal and 3 fillings which means 3-5 needles. Booked myself in and waited until the day rolled round which was Wednesday. Walked into the dentist got told to sit in the waiting room, for 15 minutes which is normally when I would bottle it. Felt nothing, went into the dentists room laid down and waited for the panic to come, he got the needle out went towards my mouth which is normally when the panic sets in I, I didn’t feel any fear this time though i thought “this is where it really hurts” closed my eyes and waited for what I thought would be a very painful experience, only for it to be a mildly uncomfortable and leave me wondering what the problem was all these years. Derek has changed my life I’m a much more confident and happier person. He is also a model professional and very friendly."

FAQs

How long does the process usually take?

Generally, 4 to 6 sessions will usually be enough to change your habitual thought patterns. After that, I’m available to support you while you maintain the positive change.

What does hypnosis feel like?

Contrary to what you see on TV shows, it’s not dramatic. You’ll feel a sense of deep relaxation and heightened awareness. At no point will you lose control.

Your attention is so focused that it creates a comfortable detachment from your surroundings. It’s similar to the relaxation associated with sleep, although you won’t actually fall asleep. You’re conscious and in a state of intense concentration.

It’s this hyper-concentration which opens your mind to new ideas, suggestions, solutions to your problems and positive transformation.

What if I can’t be hypnotised?

You can be hypnotised — although the depth of the trance varies from person to person.

To gauge this, I’ll start by asking you to imagine a sensory experience which involves visualisation, touch, smell and taste. It helps me tailor the sessions so that they’ll work for you as an individual.

The depth of your hypnotic state makes no difference to its effectiveness. Your experience of hypnosis won’t be the same as someone else’s, but that doesn’t mean it hasn’t worked.

The results will become obvious when you go back to your everyday life. You’ll start noticing constructive changes, resilience and a new resourcefulness to cope with difficulties.

Can hypnotherapy be dangerous?

No. There are lots of myths and misconceptions about hypnotherapy, most of them from stage hypnosis. The people on stage look as though they’re under a spell.

In fact, these people are probably somnambulists. They are chosen to be part of the show because they have good powers of visualisation and a tendency to sleepwalk. Also, they’re extroverts. They enjoy being on stage.

The aim of hypnotherapy is to empower you to realise you can change. We agree on a goal and I make positive suggestions to make sure you achieve it.
