CAN HYPNOSIS HELP WITH MY FEAR OF SPIDERS?
JUNE 2000

Dear Del,
I have such a strong fear of spiders that I don't want to be in a house that has one. This makes my social live more complicated than it needs to be. Can hypnosis help me?

Hypnosis is a highly effective method for conquering fears and phobias very quickly, (1) by helping the subconscious self become realistic about the situation; (2) by facing the original source of the fear; and (3) by giving suggestions that guide you through such situations in a relaxed and un-fearful way. Your deeper self soon accepts this new approach to spiders, or birds, or snakes, or crossing bridges, or any other kind of fear.

A good therapist will want to help you seek out the source of your fear or phobia. Then he/she will help you "clear up" that source of fear, through methods that give assurance there is no longer danger, or by handling some issue that the phobia is merely a symbol of. Once that has been accomplished, then suggestions that you are unafraid will be accepted by the unconscious/subconscious levels of your mind.

Here is what one of my clients said about her own fear, which was just like yours when she first came to me: "Miracle of miracles, I was able to be in the same room with a spider, and actually sit and watch it move across the windowsill near me without flinching, or feeling that I had to leave immediately. What amazes me even more, is the other fears I had, such as crossing bridges and being in high places, are also gone."
