PHOBIA HYPNOTHERAPY TREATMENT

Hypnosis for Phobias

Phobias seem urgent and very real, but they are actually irrational aversions deeply ingrained in the unconscious mind, beneath the logical, conscious mind. No matter how much you know that there is nothing to rationally be afraid of, the unconscious mind hijacks your response and triggers a fight-or-flight adrenaline response. With hypnotherapy, we can drill down into the unhelpful negative mindset that expects to feel the fear, these are ingrained deep into the unconscious, re-setting them to no longer be afraid.

There is virtually no limit to the fears and phobias our clients experience.

We’ve been treating those with phobias for 20 years and our success rate is 95% (out of 197 clients treated between October 5th 2024 – October 5th 2025).

Sandy Lyons
I went to City Hypnosis as a last resort for help with anxiety attacks in exam situations which had caused me to get much lower marks than predicted. I had tried meditation and even beta blockers previously. I undertook a course of three sessions. I left my first session feeling so relaxed that I had never felt anything like it, and was completely calm before and during an important exam the next day. I had two more sessions and three more exams, and got the excellent results I needed. I'm in university now as a mature student studying to be a vet, so on a very demanding course. I've have had no problems with exam nerves since and have been recommending to friends that they try hypnotherapy for all sorts of issues. I would have given 5 stars but felt a need to take something off because the treatment is rather expensive - but I suppose should be considered as an investment and shouldn't be off-putting.
Susan Collins
Prior to seeing Aaron, I hadn’t been in a lift for 25 years and this fear had extended to a genuine terror of any confined spaces, having an increasingly serious impact on my life. It is incredible to think that after one amazing session with Aaron, I have now been able to take back control and do all the things that most people take for granted, such as going on the underground or jumping in a lift. I really cannot recommend Aaron’s services highly enough; not only did he successfully treat my crippling fear but he guided me through the session with compassion, patience and humour. One thing I will say is that I went into my session with an open mind and a really positive attitude which I think is essential for a successful outcome.
Elaine Gleeson
I had hypnotherapy sessions with Aaron to help me get over the huge fear I had developed of driving after a major car accident . I was terrified of driving and insisted on getting the tube into work even though it was a short drive and my workplace had allocated parking . After my first session at City Hypnosis I was aware of a shift in my mindset and a lessoning of the fear that was holding me back The day after the second session I got in my car and drove to work . Since then I have driven confidently throughout the UK and all over the Republic of Ireland and cannot thank Aaron enough . My sessions with him were truly life changing and I cannot recommend City Hypnosis highly enough.
Isabella Joseph
I have suffered with emetophobia (fear of vomit) and anxiety for as long as I can remember, my phobia stopped me from going out and enjoying myself, getting on public transport and interfered with everyday life. I was constantly scared someone was going to vomit near me always on edge, or constantly feeling sick from anxiety. Since seeing Aaron I can honestly say I feel completely different! I am able to enjoy myself whilst being out I am able to eat more of what I want to eat without the fear that it’s going to make me sick! I feel so much better and more confident! I don’t even notice people around me anymore whilst on public transport. Aaron has honestly changed my life I cannot thank him enough!
Rebecca Brierley
I first went to see Aaron last year after suffering with low self esteem, vertigo and panic attacks. I realized something had to change when I could no longer cope with escalators,shopping or trains. After two sessions my fear of heights and escalators disappeared as if my problem had never existed. I was so impressed that I continued with the process. Aaron has helped transform my way of thinking which has had a positive impact on my life. I have found Aaron to be professional kind and flexible. I would certainly recommend City Hypnosis.
Emma Thornton
After a near-miss almost 30 years ago I had become petrified of being a passenger in a car on a motorway. This was making life more complicated than it needed to be (getting trains, buses even short haul flights to avoid the dreaded car journey). Either that or I was a nightmare passenger alongside my poor husband, having to drive with a nervous wreck! Aaron has fixed the problem and I can happily say I am back in the car (passenger seat only for now!) and travel is easier once again. Huge thanks to him for understanding my plight and through a few sessions, Aaron has transformed this part of my life for the better.
BRENDAN O'CONNOR
I am writing as Brendan's wife, Judy. When I came to Aaron my anxiety was sky high. I had suffered anxiety for about 3 years and it had gotten a lot worse recently with my husband being diagnosed with a serious heart condition. The effect of that first hypnotherapy session was immediate and long lasting - my anxiety plummeted. It has remained at a lower level, and my sleep has also improved, though I still remain on my sleeping tablets. I listen to the apps daily and they help me relax. I am so grateful for Aaron's hypnotherapy sessions.
Georgia Ferdinand
i'm so happy i went and got this done, at first i thought it wasn't going to work as my anxiety and worry was too far gone for someone to help and even after the the first session it worked i couldn't believe it, i went for the second session just to make it stronger and i can't wait to see what it brings, it really has changed my life and i can't be more thankful, i can now have a better life with my children and enjoy more things. I will be forever grateful and will always recommend him!
Mia Grace
Absolutely incredible! I cannot recommend Aaron highly enough! I took my 13 year old son to City Hypnosis for help regarding severe anxiety around school (was almost having to home school my son)! Aaron made us feel welcome, supported and relaxed. Since being treated by Aaron my son can now attend school every day! With NO anxiety! He is now a confident, happy, thriving student - who has now even joined the school football team! My family & I will be forever grateful to Aaron.
Ayo A
I came to Emily a low energy person full of negative thoughts. After 4 sessions I am a totally different person ready to take on the world! I was terrified of exams and by my second session, I had taken (and passed) a professional exam and booked another! My friends and family have noticed the positive changes too. If you are reading this to make up your mind about city hypnosis, take this as your sign to just do it! Thank you so so much Emily! You have changed my life ♥️
Eleonora Chessa
I want to thank Emily for her incredible work. I had four sessions with her, but I could already see noticeable results after the first one. The treatment was tailored to my needs and has been incredible effective. Emily's approach was very supportive. I now have a completely different mindset and I'm so grateful for the positive changes I've experienced. I highly recommend City Hypnosis.
Poppy Johnson
I've been going to Hypnosis sessions for a phobia of mine that I've been struggling with since Childhood for about a month now and lets just say I haven't look back since! Aaron makes you feel so comfortable and makes it easy to talk openly about underlying issues. I really feel like I've seen a drastic improvement already and could not recommend enough!
Siobhan Flannery
Aaron has been an incredible positive force in my life - helping me to move forward with health anxieties and fear of flying! both of which were exacerbated by lockdowns and the pandemic. There is still some work to be done but I feel a sense of confidence and resolution. Thank you Aaron.
Jamie Taylor-Mills
Aaron was fantastic. With his hypnotherapy I was able to pick myself up from a depressed state over my last relationship falling apart to a confident young man who had no trouble finding what I was looking for. Would thoroughly recommend his service to anyone looking to conquer personal demons.
Mary Mohit
I saw Aaron as I’ve had a fear of swimming in deep water for many years which has spoiled a lot of holidays. The results were life changing and I can’t thank Aaron enough. I now have confidence and no fear - it’s amazing.
Katie ghose
Our daughter had several sessions with Aron, for a severe needle phobia which was preventing her from receiving any vaccinations at all. A very positive experience and she has now had her fourth vaccination!
Mark
Had 3 sessions with City Hypnosis for my sleep phobia, results were amazing. Not had a sleepless night since treatment and not taken a sleeping tablet. Highly recommend.

" During and after each session I had a complete sense of calm. It was like waking up from a really good nights sleep. I recently took my practical test and actually enjoyed the process. I was calm and in control the whole time but more importantly, I passed (and passed well). "
