Hypnotherapy Q&As
Can hypnotherapy help with agoraphobia?
Yes. Under hypnosis you rehearse the places you've been avoiding, calmly and at your own pace, before facing them for real.
Starting where you feel safe
Fear of crowds, the Underground, busy streets or being far from home is a learned response, and it can be updated. Online sessions mean you can begin from home, which many people find a gentle place to start.

Step by step
You approach each situation gradually in a relaxed state, never faster than feels right, and leave with self-hypnosis to use before the real thing.
