How Century Radio's Kate Kopczyk released her fear of spiders in two hours and how YOU can be phobia free too

Posted On: Wednesday March 11, 2009

When I met Kate she had to ask somebody to check the ladies toilets before she’d go in to see if any spiders were lurking…..

she wouldn’t even go into the cellar in her own home…

even a drawing of a spider had her visibly shaken….

when I asked her to rate her anxiety around spiders on a scale of 1-10 she said she was a 9.5 or even a 10…….

Kate’s not alone. It is estimated that 1 in 9 of us will develop a phobia at some stage in our lives.

As humans, we have a natural fear of only two things – falling and loud noises. Any other fears have been learnt and the great news is that what has been learnt can be re-learnt.

Neuro Linguistic programming is perfect for this because it interrupts the patterns we have been running, severs thought/emotion connections we have created in our brains and re-programmes healthier neural pathways.

Kate and I worked through a series of NLP interventions including one called the Fast Phobia Scramble – a technique so effective and powerful that it freed one of my clients from a 25 year agoraphobia!

When we had completed these processes Kate scored her anxiety around spiders at 1 on a scale of 1 – 10. She started at 9.5!

All that remained then was for me to cement the work we had done by taking Kate into a gentle and relaxing state of hypnosis which enabled me to make positive suggestions to her unconscious mind and form new behaviour patterns whenever Kate is confronted with spiders.

I spoke to Kate today. She tells me that not only does she no longer fear spiders she removes them gently by using a glass and a piece of cardboard – a process I asked her unconscious mind to perform.
