Can hypnotherapy really help with a spider phobia?

Yes. Hypnotherapy is one of the most effective approaches for spider phobia because it works directly with the subconscious mind, where the fear is stored. Unlike approaches that rely on willpower or exposure, hypnotherapy changes the automatic fear response at its root. Many clients experience a dramatic shift after just one session.

How many sessions will I need to overcome my fear of spiders?

Most clients see significant change in one to three sessions. The exact number depends on the individual, but a spider phobia responds very well to hypnotherapy and results are often faster than people expect.

Do I have to look at or touch a spider during the sessions?

Absolutely not. My approach does not involve any exposure to spiders whatsoever. You will not be shown pictures, asked to handle one, or put in any uncomfortable situation. Everything happens in a calm, safe environment. However if you feel you want to do these things i will be there to support you. I will never ask you to do anything that you don't want to do.

Is online hypnotherapy for spider phobia as effective as in person?

Yes. Sessions take place online via Zoom and are just as effective as face to face sessions. Many clients across the UK have overcome their spider phobia this way from the comfort of their own home.

What if I have had my phobia for years and years.....is it too late?

Not at all. The length of time you have had a phobia makes no difference to how quickly it can be removed. In fact, the stronger and more ingrained the fear, the more powerfully the imagination is working and that same imagination is exactly what we redirect during the session.

How is this different from CBT or exposure therapy?

CBT and exposure therapy ask you to face your fear gradually, which many people find distressing and ineffective. My approach works with the subconscious directly, so there is no need to confront spiders at all. Change happens at the level where the fear actually lives.

SPIDER PHOBIA TESTIMONIALS

★★★★★

"I have suffered from an almost debilitating phobia of spiders for the entirety of my adult life. After just 1 session I walked away feeling lighter and calmer. After 4 sessions, I am free of the constant fear. I now live in harmony with the large spider that lives alongside my front door! I cannot thank, or recommend, Stuart enough."

Lucy Freeman

"Stuart is amazing. I had an extreme phobia of spiders — absolutely petrified at just the thought.

After several sessions my fear came down dramatically.

A big spider dropped in front of my face and I just looked to see where it went and carried on! Unbelievable."

"My other half went to Stuart about his phobia of spiders.

He went in with his fear levels at 10 and came out at a 1!

Amazing results! Couldn't speak highly enough of the treatment he received."

Amanda Rice

I can 100% confirm that it is life changing to be able to see and even deal with spiders without feeling scared or having a panic attack. I was ridiculously scared before Stuart Heale helped me and never thought I would see the day I am no longer scared of spiders. I highly recommend him to help with any phobias among many other things he can help with including anxiety

There was a spider in my jumper the other day.....I was wearing the jumper!!!....and I didn't freak out!

So unfortunately the spider didn't make it but I just dealt with it and carried on.

I would totally recommend going to see Stuart for phobias, it really helped me

Hi Stuart. Hope your ok, just thought I would update you, I have just gone out to my shed and as I opened the door something dropped in front of me! It was a fair sized spider and ran along in front of me, I jumped but obviously wasn't expecting it! I carefully looked and saw it then it ran off but stayed in the shed. I carefully got my washing from the dryer but didn't have the panic or sick feeling at all!! Feel so pleased. Thank you.

I have massive/extreme phobia of spiders.

I had sessions with Stuart the other week and today encountered my first spider. I managed to squash it in tissue and get rid of it. I have never ever been able to use tissue to squash them as my fear wouldn't let me get that close. Never thought this would be possible

"I have just had a session with Stuart, before this I couldn't even look at spiders on TV never mind anything else.

Now I am sat googling spider videos and am completely at peace and calm."
