Phobias
and Fear
Irrational Fears are often
called phobias. These can be about virtually anything and are very
personal to the individual. They occur when trauma, perception or
understanding cause the subconscious to mistakenly misjudge the level of
risk or danger, creating a "danger" or "flight and fight" response".
Phobias and fear
can be helped with Hypnotherapy,
Counselling, NLP, CBT and
Psychotherapy
Hypnotherapy, Counselling, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, psychotherapy and NLP are
all effective in
combination in treating phobia and fear cases.
What are Phobias?
Phobias are fears of animals, places, activities,
things, anything really.
The thing they have in common is they are apparently illogical or
irrational.
People often assume therefore that they are being "daft" because of
their
phobia. This is not true. All phobias have a logical element, hidden
somewhere
in the subconscious. All phobias respond well to the same
systematic
combination of assistance.
How does the treatment
work?
This
can Work in a number of ways:
- Hypnotherapy
can be used in a Clinical Hypnosis model to reduce fear responses
- Psychotherapy
and or Hypnotherapy can tackle psychosomatic reasons for being afraid
- Hypnotherapy
visualisation and reprogramming can assist directly by changing
the way you feel about the place / thing / other phobia.
- Motivational
counselling can tip the psychological balance, that compared benefits
and costs of the fear. Many of these are often subconscious. Once
addressed the person feels they have the strength to
overcome any residual fear.
- People
under stress suffer more likelihood of fear response, therefore
relaxation and stress management are of great assistance.
- NLP
can be used to control responses to situations.
- CBT Cognitive Behavioural Therapy can be used to
change perception (way you think about things) and behaviour.
- SIT Stress Innoculation Therapy works to increase
what you can cope with.

What is the usual result?
The combination of all of these means that you can:
- Learn to cope with fear better, feel the fear but
do it anyway.
- Learn to feel different and positive emotions
instead of fear. And these will gradually over-write the fear feelings.
- Become generally calmer and stronger.
- Address the reasons why you were afraid deep down
anyway.
Getting at the underlying
cause
Please note, most people have some deeper reasons for
fear and phobia. Although phobias are by definition apparently
irrational, there is virtually always a deeper meaning in the
subconscious. To prevent a repeat of the fear, or a new symptom like
it, it is essential to deal with that deeper cause. Therapists who just
give symptomatic relief like to believe that by disrupting the phobia
they can cure it. Unfortunately this is not usually valid and is the
equivalent of giving pain killers to a patient without addressing the
cause of the pain. We take care to make you feel better, AND deal with
the holistic reasons why.
"Rapid Phobia Cures" and "EFT Emotional Freedom Technique"
There are a lot of "wonder cures" being pedaled at the
moment. These include short treatments using Hypnosis, NLP and EFT.
These only work for those people who only have fairly minor phobias
that are not yet ingrained. They work by disrupting the phobia before
it can become deeply ingrained in cognition and behaviour. TV
programmes have frequently show cased these "cures" and time after time
have shown subjects to have brief respite, followed by relapse. It is
valid to use such "brief surface" methods in minor cases, but where the
client has a deep rooted phobia, common sense should tell the enquirer
that a serious issues will not respond to a trivial answer! EFT in
particular is highly contraversial since it uses a hackneyed
combination of self-shiatsu (tapping) and distractional technique
(behavioural cues). It is not recommended for serious cases.
Paul S Morgan-Ayres is the main therapist dealing with
phobias and is both highly experienced in dealing with a wide range of
phobias, and well qualified in all the techniques used.
As well as being a well qualified therapist and life
coach to nationally recognised standards, he has written a number of
training courses under contract to an ASET accredited college. These
include ASET Level 5 CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), ASET Level 4
Life Coaching, ASET Level 4 Stress Management Coaching, ASET Level 4
Anger Management Coaching and ASET Level 4 Holistic Healing.
