What is Phobia Therapy?

Phobia therapy is a structured, evidence-based approach that targets irrational fears. Using solution-focused hypnotherapy, I don’t dwell on the past. Instead, I retrain how your brain responds to fear triggers. Common phobias I treat include:

  • Fear of spiders (arachnophobia)
  • Fear of flying
  • Claustrophobia (enclosed spaces)
  • Emetophobia (being sick)
  • Dentophobia (dentists)
  • Social phobia
  • Public speaking fears

This process typically involves four in-person sessions, each lasting 50–60 minutes, delivered in a calming, private setting in Yaxley.

Why Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy Works for Phobias

Unlike traditional therapies that revisit traumatic events, solution-focused hypnotherapy helps you:

  • Focus on positive change rather than past trauma
  • Replace fear with calm through trance-like states (similar to daydreaming)
  • Create new neural pathways to manage your phobia triggers

This method is based on modern neuroscience and is known for fast, long-lasting results.

Who Can Benefit from Phobia Therapy in Yaxley?

You might benefit if:

  • You avoid places or plans due to fear
  • Your reactions feel intense or irrational
  • You experience panic symptoms when faced with your trigger
  • You want to feel calm and in control again

Whether your phobia is mild or life-limiting, our sessions can help you regain confidence. I serve clients across Yaxley, Peterborough, Huntingdon, and surrounding villages.

Real clients. Real fears overcome. The therapy I offer for phobias in Yaxley has helped individuals transform how they respond to long-held fears, enabling them to live with more freedom and confidence.

Overcoming a Lifelong Spider Phobia

Debbie came to Vicky with an intense fear of spiders that had disrupted her daily life. With just a few sessions of solution-focused hypnotherapy, she experienced a remarkable shift in how she responded to her fear. Here’s what she had to say:

“I was petrified of spiders and wanted to be able to deal with them in a more rational way. Vicky instantly put me at ease and explained everything that was going to happen. After only a few sessions, I didn’t really think anything of it until I was faced with a spider at home… and I calmly removed it. I was amazed at how well Vicky had worked her magic on me. I can highly recommend Vicky – you won’t be disappointed.”

These real stories show what’s possible. From lifelong bird phobias to fear of public places, my approach brings practical, lasting change.
