does hypnotherapy cure phobias?

Question

have severe phobia of butterflies and moths, this is now spreading to birds and any flapping characters. I need to resolve this as its effecting the way i live and annoying my partner.

Answer 1

Yes it certainly does.

I'm a hypnotherapist and NLP practitioner and have worked as one for a couple of years now. (please do not confuse this with stage hypnosis, the two are totally different)

It can help you break negative habits, patterns and behaviours, and replace them with more psitive beneficial ones.

Phobias makes up 40% or my business, and have had some astounding results. Often dealing with these in one or two sessions where months or years of standard talking therpay has been futile.

The key here is not suggestablility but a desire to change. It is not me that makes this happen but the client's own inner resources and willingness to think differently. Hypnosis is NOT mind control as is often portrayed in the media, but a perfectly normal human state.

Anyone who has ever daydreamed has been in a trance. If you drift off into your own thoughts when driving or watching television then you have experienced hypnosis. You remain fully awake, aware and in control at all time, you are just very relaxed.

In answer to your question, yes it does work, and it works very well.

If you decide to go for hypnotherapy, if you can, go on personal recomendation if possible and also make sure you know that the therapist is registered and accreditted by a national professional body.

Good luck

p.s. you wil lget people warning you off hypnotherapy, be wary of opinions without being backed up by personal experience.

Answer 2

Hypnotherapy is not used near as often as it should be. Get a book and reed up on it. $600 is a small price to pay to get your life back. I love hypnoses and was able to cure my wife of a life long allergy to cats. No more red whelps and swollen eyes. Its tricky so don't try it before you know what you are doing. Don't worry about the $600 bucks. Don't give up after the first treatment. It may take 2 or more would expect for the same $600.

Answer 3

Hypnotherapy can work - but it can also trigger other memories.

Iwent to a hypnotherapist because I wanted to remember a car number - what happened next surprised me - I felt a deep sadness roll up my legs from my toes to my head and I started crying, when the hypnotherapist asked me what was wrong - the first thing that came to my head was something that had happened in my family when I was very young, but boy, did it answer other questions in my life regarding my behaviour.

So YES, hypnotherapy may help because it will find out what triggered your fear in the first place. Once you know the reason, it is much easier to work on.

Answer 4

Yes, if the Hypnotherapist can find the route cause of your phobia,

Remember that Hypnotherapy is NOT what you see on stage, it's a gradual process of contacting your subconsciousness mind, and talking to it, it may mean that you re-live events that you'd rather not live.

Have you considered other types of Therapy as in Psychologist? you local GP can recommend you.

Answer 5

Generally, if you've actually been thinking about applying hypnosis to be able to control the outcome of talks to your benefit, then you'll probably have a pursuit in what is being taught in Black Ops Hypnosis, an on the web plan that you will find here https://tr.im/SCu7t .

Answer 6

hypnotherapy has been known to cure phobias in some cases (nothing is 100%) go to a respected hypnotherapist and make sure you feel comfortable with him/her. I'd say you have a good chance.

Answer 7

yes it can. But the next time you experience this phobia I want you to think about exactly what you feel. Do you feel sick in the stomach? Perhaps your hands shake? Whatever the symptoms you have or fell I want you to localise them. For examlpe if you feel sick close your eyes and imagine moving that sick feeling to your shoulder (sounds strange I know but try it), next move that sensation to your elbow then to your hand. It probably won't seem so bad.
This may work, but it's only one technique of hundreds that can be used depending on your symptoms. Try imagining your symptom as a colour. If it is black or sickly yellow or whatever, push it out in front of you and change it to a colour you like, then put it back inside.

How about this; If you had to imagine

Answer 8

Hypnotherapy can cure everything ,in the deeply burried psychy of every one,but only with the hands of a professional psychotherapist......But if these therapists are not available,the best treatment of phobias is facing it in a very gradual and increasing in time slow way day after day until you face it all without any fears,,good luck.......................Dr sherif lanson khalil of egypt

Answer 9

Hypnotherapy should be avoided it is a dangerous practice capable of opening up the recipient to all sorts of Demonic influences!!!!

Answer 10

They claim to be able to cure phobias. I've never tried it. I've thought about it a million times but I'm to chicken. I'm so afraid they will look for skeletons in my closet. I'd rather go the med route.
It sounds to me like anxiety. you'll need a pychiatrist for meds. Start with your provider. He/She can get you started.
