fears and pHOBIAS

Fear is a natural response. It’s there to protect you. But sometimes… it can start to hold you back.

What might begin as a small fear can grow over time, until it feels overwhelming, automatic, and out of your control.

You might notice:

Avoiding certain places or situations
Feeling anxious before something even happens
Your body reacting quickly — racing heart, tension, panic
Knowing the fear doesn’t make sense, but still feeling it anyway

And that can be frustrating because part of you knows you’re safe… but another part of you reacts as if you’re not.

Phobias and fears are learned responses. Your mind has linked something a place, situation, or feeling
to danger. And once that connection is made, your body reacts automatically to protect you. Even if that protection is no longer needed.

Hypnotherapy works by gently changing that response.

Together, we work to:

Understand where the fear has come from
Reduce the intensity of the reaction
Help your mind feel safe again
Build calm, control, and confidence in those situations

Imagine being able to:

Stay calm in situations that once felt overwhelming
Feel in control of your reactions
Move forward without avoiding things
Trust yourself again

You don’t need to force yourself through fear.And you don’t need to stay stuck in it either.

With the right approach, your mind can learn a different way to respond.

The journey for me with Beckie hypnotherapy started in 2022 after a really horrible dental accident tripping on my trousers and landing on my front step badly damaging my front 3 teeth one was knocked out , the dentist re attached this back into my mouth and manually pulled the other 2 teeth back in line this was proceeded with me wearing a stent across my front teeth .

This was on longer due to my dental anxiety at a whole new level !!

I kept cancelling appointments and turning up but backing out at the door of the dentist, I needed to get this work done my dentist is wonderful but I just could not do it .

I researched hypnotherapy and found Beckie who not only through hypnotherapy but lots of encouragement guided me how to actually go into the dentist to start with breaking through those turning back moments feeling and being sick on the way to the dentist she talked a lot about avoidance Something anxiety loves to deep relaxation techniques
Whilst in the dentist chair , I started using these during every visit visualisation of being in my favourite place York whilst in the chair,

I have now had root fillings on my damaged teeth lot of work on veneer appointments and I now have temporary veneers fitted my permanent ones will be fitted in 3 weeks time .

I have also had an implant nothing to do with the accident but again something I had avoided before the help of this outstanding hypnotherapist,

Throughout this hypnotherapy we also worked on self esteem and my own needs being met this has been something I struggled with for many years putting everyone else’s needs before my own this does not change over night but with the tools Beckie has given me this is something I work on daily,

Beckie is an excellent hypnotherapist encouraging but will also push you to do the work on yourself too this is in my eyes what makes an outstanding therapist .
