What Is A Phobia?

A phobia is more than merely a fear; it is an excessive fear reaction that may be irrational. Those with phobias may experience a profound sense of panic, dread or even physical symptoms when they come up against the source of their fear, which could be a specific place, situation, object, etc. Unlike general anxiety disorders, phobias are typically connected to a very specific cause. The reach and impact of a phobia can range from a niggly annoyance to debilitating panic. Often, people suffering from phobias realise that their fear is irrational, but they can’t do anything about it. They can suffer serious consequences, affecting their career, education, and personal relationships.

Take Back Control

The source of a phobia could be anything. From the commonly known arachnophobia (fear of spiders) to various social phobias and even lesser-known phobias like xanthophobia (fear of the colour yellow), phobias can be successfully treated and cured.

Once phobias start interfering with your ability to live your life, it’s time to take back control. Professional treatment is essential for treating phobias because otherwise, they will grow and gain power. And when that happens, most sufferers will simply avoid situations that cause them anxiety.

How Hypnotherapy For Phobias Can Help

It is possible to conquer your phobias using hypnotherapy. By unlearning and putting an end to your phobic response, we turn the fear and the resulting behaviour pattern on their head so that your fear disappears. The goal is to help you move past fears caused by irrational beliefs or perceptions.

According to Medical News Today, hypnosis can effectively reduce the fear experienced by people living with phobia. Hypnosis can help lower physical indicators of fear, such as blood pressure, by easing the mind and body into a relaxed and calm state. Once the individual’s body is relaxed by hypnosis, they can redirect their mind away from focusing on their fears.

What To Expect During Hypnotherapy & NLP

During a hypnotherapy session, most people feel a sense of deep relaxation, similar to a meditative state. Hypnosis often involves some direct suggestions made to the subconscious mind, which the person can expect to benefit from after the hypnosis session. A person who has undergone hypnosis may feel lighter like they’ve had a release, or as if they have a deeper understanding of something they were struggling with before. 

Change Your Life For Good With Hypnotherapy & NLP

With hypnotherapy, you work towards accessing the unconscious mind. This allows you to accept completely new positive behaviours, ideas and insights and can help you increase your productivity, reduce your anxiety and even break bad habits you’ve been struggling to kick. Whatever struggles you may be facing or challenges you need to overcome, hypnotherapy can be a vital tool in taking control of your life and living the life you’ve always wanted to live.

Dr Souglides is one of the best therapist I have been to, his knowledge and compassion are by far the best I have experienced. I have been to many Dr’s and the approach of Hypnotherapy was my last resort and by far the best resort I took.

I have been very fortunate to have known Dr John for a good number of years and have had the privilege of benefitting from his incredible expertise in his field when it was required, with great results!I recently went back to him with a matter that seemed to be insurmountable to me and after only one session, this was broken down in simple terms to something quite manageable, with the correct mindset and tools, which Dr John willingly equips one with.I have been back for clarity in certain areas which Dr John unselfishly and patiently gave in detail, so that I feel empowered to move on in a positive manner independentlyI have recommended Dr John to others, without hesitation, who could benefit from time with himIt really is quite remarkable how Dr John can empathise with any individual on all levels and with his perception break down any problem one would feel overwhelmed byHighly recommended for self empowerment, peace as well as clarity of mind in order to move forward in a positive manner
