Emetophobia - has the panic now subsided?

November through to March saw a huge increase in the number of clients coming to see me with the Emetophobia( fear of being sick) symptoms. Its not hard to understand this considering the enormous publicity that appeared in the newspapers and on television around the Nurovirus bug. These months are always going to produce a large number of sufferers ( there are in fact over 3 million who suffer in the UK alone) as colds, bugs, virus's etc hit schools and offices which in turn affects anyone who suffers from the "Sickness" phobia. But this year was totally out of the ordinary as where I would normally see possibly 3 sufferers a week this rose on average to 7 a week !!

For many years the only way to treat Emetophobia was using Hypno-Analysis or Analytical Therapy but now I have another therapy that works to treat and resolve the symptoms of Emetophobia - its called Changing Limited Beliefs (Thrive)! The results of using both therapies are impressive and Changing Limited Beliefs (Thrive) has proved a very useful alternative as not everyone can get through Hypno-Analysis but everyone can benefit from Changing Limited Beliefs.

The results that I achieve with my clients to help them overcome this phobia are impressive. I always ask my clients to gauge the negative impact of the phobia on their life at our very first free Initial Consultation and most would gauge at a huge 10/10 but after between 4 and six sessions of CLB/Thrive they would put the effect of Emetophobia at a 1/10 or 2/10 which I think you will agree is a superb turnaround.

Let me tell you about the recent case of Miss C who came to see me in January. I received an email from C asking me if I could help her resolve her Emetophobia symptoms. Miss C was in her late 20s and had suffered with the phobia for as long as she could remember. She had tried everything to resolve it - some sensible therapies such as Hypno Analysis, and some other not quite so sensible. She said in her email "nothing had worked for her", could I get rid of it for her, and because she didnt want to waste any more money trying to resolve it, and she lived in Coventry so had expenditure of travelling, would I work on a basis with her of payment by results ie she would pay me IF I solved the problem for her. My response was that firstly I dont FIX anyone instead I show them how to fix themselves, I dont work on payments by results as they could cheat and not put in any effort themselves to resolve the problem, and if she wanted to resolve the issue she would have to put in some effort herself and not go from therapy to therapy wanting someone or something to fix her... After just 5 sessions of CLB/Thrive Miss C for all intents and purposes no longer had Emetophobia. This change was a huge turnaround for Miss C who is now getting on and enjoying life..

If you suffer with Emetophobia you dont need to suffer in silence - you can contact me and I can help you get back the life that you deserve. As I mentioned I cant fix you but I can show you how you can fix yourself!
