Fears and Phobias

Throughout our lives we are likely to experience things which cause us to feel fearful.  We may overcome these fears or never have to face them again.  When fear of an object or situation becomes persistent and intense and is out of proportion to the risk posed it can be described as a phobia.  For example, Arachnophobia (fear of spiders) is very common in the UK despite the fact that there are no dangerous spiders here.  Phobias are the most common form of Anxiety disorder in the UK and it is estimated that there are 10 million phobia sufferers in the UK.

 

For many phobia sufferers it is easy to avoid the object of their phobia and they would not seek treatment, but for some a phobia becomes very restrictive.  A fear of flying can be easily dealt with by avoiding taking a flight but this will restrict holiday choices and perhaps work opportunities.  

 

There are many reasons why a phobia may have developed but often it is unnecessary for us to explore this in order to get results. There are a range of approaches available which will help you to overcome your phobia, leaving you free of fear and able to live free of restrictions which were once a problem.  Phobias seem to be learnt very quickly by the unconscious mind and thankfully this means they can be overcome using techniques which deal directly with the unconscious, often giving quick results.  The best news is that despite results being obtained quickly the results are permanent.
