Why do people develop phobias?

Clients often say that nothing has happened to cause their phobia and that it is simply something they’ve either always been afraid of or that just came on for no reason. If one person is afraid of enclosed spaces and another isn’t, then clearly there is a difference between the two.

The first person has either been exposed to some trigger event which has been repressed in the subconscious mind, or has learned to be afraid from a parent or other authority figure earlier on in life. People don’t become afraid for no reason.

The originating event may not have been particularly traumatic at the time but is likely to have caused by emotional conflict or been anchored by a negative response. Phobias can occur spontaneously following the death of someone close or during periods of extreme stress.

First Sensitizing Incident

Using Chair or Gestault  therapy,  we access the mind, age regression, we ask the subconscious if anything happened in the past to cause the problem. This may be something that happened to you or someone close to you.

It could be something you heard or read or saw on TV. Even an early nightmare that severely affected you as a child.   Your questioning will cover all eventualities until you get a response that you can work with.

We find out when it happened. For example, ‘did something happen to you before the age of 10?’ If yes, then go further back – ‘Was it something that happened before the age of 5?”, etc.

When the subconscious signals a precise age,  we instruct you to go back to that time and review what happened, what was being said, done, felt, etc. They can go through the event several times on an unconscious level until the memory surfaces.

You may well show signs of abreaction by shivering, crying, shouting, etc. These feelings will allow the original traumatizing event to be released and aid in your  recovery.

You can reassure  that now these memories have surfaced into conscious awareness they will lose their power over you. You are now able to be rational about what it is they were previously afraid of.

You could  imagine all negative feelings leaving you, floating up into a cloud that becomes black and heavy before being blown away by a gust of wind.

Or we could use an Inner Child technique, having you see yourself as adult self going back and reassure the child within you  with the maturity and wisdom that you have  accumulated over the years.

Or perhaps see the images on a screen and allow the screen to become smaller and fade away. Next, visualize  coming face to face with whatever it was they were afraid of and notice how calm and confident they feel.

Once this has been done you can begin to receive strong positive suggestions, before bringing you out of hypnosis.

Hopefully, now you will feel a lot better about whatever it was that you were afraid of. Then we will test your reactions by deliberately putting yourself  into a situation that was previously fearful.
