Treatment for phobias with hypnotherapy
in Bristol and Clifton
There are about two hundred named phobias.
Very many people are affected by phobias. These irrational
and often morbid fears can overwhelm and incapacitate the
person suffering from them. They are unable to control the
powerful emotions and consequently live life defensively,
often unable to participate in the ordinary activities and
experience of everyday life.
What is a phobia?
A phobia is an external representation or symbol of an inner
anxiety. This anxiety is repressed or buried in the subconscious
memory and is expressed as a phobia.
It is important that the underlying cause is resolved so
that one phobia is not substituted by another (known as
'symptom substitution').
Examples of phobias
Some of the more common phobias that we are consulted for
include: fear of being 'on the spot'and fear of being judged
(social phobia); fear of being sick, fear of vomitting (emetophobia);
fear of flying; fear of dentists; fear of injections; fear
of needles; fear of heights; fear of water; fear of dying;
fear of death; fear of enclosed spaces (claustrophobia);
fear of public speaking (glossophobia); toilet phobias (coprophobia);
fear of driving; fear of driving over bridges; fear of spiders
etc.
Social Phobia
The most common condition and phobia that we help is known
as Social Phobia or Social anxiety. This describes a situation
where the sufferer has an intense fear of being on 'the
spot' or being judged or humiliated. In these situations
people will often have a problem with blushing or stuttering
or sweating or trying to maintain their cool and act confident
(though they don't feel it). Social phobics are often good
at concealing their anxiety at work.In effect, this is a
fear of people and their opinion of you.
Hypnoanalysis is a very effective way of treating phobias
without using aversion therapy, exposure techniques or other
common “cures” such as CBT. This is because
hypnoanalysis allows a natural therapeutic process - that
of thinking of different experiences to allow some emotions
to surface - to work quickly and effectively...it is the
only therapy that finds the root cause and releases it.
Once those emotions have surfaced, the outside situation
that used to TRIGGER the feelings of panic, no longer does
so.
