Phobia – Spiders

Spider phobia - I was sceptical whether this could really work as my phobia was so deeply ingrained. My fear of spiders was debilitating and affected my everyday life . Lorraine was recommended to me by a friend who had undergone successful hypnotherapy for anxiety issues. I emailed a brief description of my phobia and then had a no obligation phone call with Lorraine. I found her to be non judgmental, incredibly reassuring and she explained what her therapy entailed. I went ahead with four sessions. I knew exactly what was going to happen and I knew that I would not be put in any situation where I would not feel entirely safe. My goal was to be able to calmly catch a spider in a glass and release it outside. Prior to Lorraine’s therapy this would have been impossible for me to even think about never mind carry out. I can honestly say that I am now able to do this calmly, easily and with confidence. The impact this has made on my every day life is amazing. I’m no longer controlled by phobia. I choose how to react and the peace and relief that comes with that is priceless.
