Overcome Fears and Phobias with Hypnotherapy in Sydney
Fears and phobias can affect even the most logical minds, showing up as fear of flying, fear of driving, fear of heights, or anxiety when crossing bridges, driving through tunnels, or travelling on highways.

That is why our sessions help you make calm, realistic assessments, reducing irrational fears while strengthening confidence.

So, how can I help you? Most people never learn how to stop fear once it starts. That is where this approach can help. Through phobia hypnotherapy and the Rewind Technique in Bondi Junction and Waverley, I will guide you to calm your mind, reset your body, and take back control.
In a nutshell, this is how I help you overcome fears and phobias:
- Understand how your fear or phobia is being done
- Identify what triggers it and why it keeps repeating
- Interrupt and retrain the automatic fear response
- Build calm, realistic reactions in real world situations
- Regain confidence and control over your body and mind
This is the slightly longer version
Once we begin, you will have space to describe your experience and what you want instead. Together we will unpack how your fears or phobias have been maintained and what patterns keep them alive. You will learn how to interrupt those patterns and restore calm in moments that once felt overwhelming.
We will explore how your mind and body communicate and create rapid change through focused techniques. The goal is not to fight fear but to teach your system how to deactivate it naturally. Using The Rewind Technique, Strategic Psychotherapy, and Clinical Hypnosis, we can neutralise the emotional response at its source.
My toolkit combines the best of evidence based methods such as Strategic Psychotherapy, CBT, NLP, and ACT, together with Clinical Hypnosis and the Rewind Technique. This blend helps your nervous system learn safety again, quickly and effectively.
This approach is fast, practical, and collaborative. The aim is always to help you achieve lasting results in the shortest number of sessions possible.
Fast, to the point therapy
I am here to help you take back the reins. Your future does not need to be limited by fear or avoidance. It is yours to shape, and you can start that change today.

The Rewind Technique
A proven process that releases the emotional charge from phobic memories or triggers. You stay in control while the mind safely reprocesses past events, leaving calm where fear once was.
Strategic Psychotherapy
We look at how fear is being maintained, not only where it began. By understanding the structure of your responses, we design practical strategies that work in everyday life.
Clinical Hypnosis
Deep relaxation with focused attention helps your unconscious mind adopt calmer, more balanced reactions. Each session reinforces confidence and composure.
NLP
Neuro Linguistic Programming helps you shift unhelpful thought patterns and language habits. Build flexible thinking and confident responses in real situations.

How does hypnotherapy work for fears and phobias?
Hypnotherapy guides you into a relaxed, focused state where the mind is more receptive to helpful suggestions. In this state we can update unhelpful beliefs and fear responses, then rehearse calmer, more confident ways of coping with triggers.
What are the benefits of hypnotherapy for fears and phobias?
Hypnotherapy helps identify triggers, reduce anxiety, and promote relaxation. By reframing negative patterns and associations, you develop a more balanced perspective and greater self control in situations that once felt overwhelming.
How does the Rewind Technique help?
The Rewind Technique aims to remove the emotional charge from phobic memories or triggers while you remain safe and in control. It can neutralise the response at its source so your system learns calm again. Read more here: Rewind Technique for phobias.
How many sessions will I need for my fear or phobia?
When you engage with the process and complete the between session tasks, many phobias improve within one to three sessions. Your plan is tailored to you and we will review progress together.
Why work with the unconscious mind?
Automatic processes, memories, and learned responses live outside moment to moment awareness. By working at this level, we can update patterns that drive fear, which helps you experience more ease, confidence, and control in daily life.
What is hypnotherapy?
As practised here, hypnotherapy blends Strategic Psychotherapy and NLP, facilitated through Clinical Hypnosis. This creates a calm, focused state that makes it easier to integrate new insights and behaviours for long term change.
What is hypnosis and what is trance?
Hypnosis is a natural, absorbed state of attention with strong internal focus. If you have ever meditated, daydreamed, become absorbed in a book or a film, or found yourself on autopilot while driving or running, you have already experienced a light trance.
Can I be hypnotised?
Most people can experience hypnosis in their own way. Some feel deeply relaxed while others feel calmly focused. You remain in control and we work at a pace that suits you.
How is Strategic Psychotherapy different from other therapies?
- Brief and focused: we aim for significant progress in weeks, often in one to three sessions for phobias.
- Directive and goal oriented: we map how the problem is maintained and practise alternatives that work now.
- Present and future focused: your history matters, and we keep attention on what you can change today and how you want to respond going forward.
