Hypnosis for Fears and Phobias

Fears and phobias can hold a person back from experiencing a full life, and hypnotherapy can help release you from these restrictions.  

Typical fears include aerophobia (fear of flying), acrophobia (fear of heights), claustrophobia (fear of confined spaces), and many others.

Are you afraid of getting on an airplane, or perhaps you get a cold chill thinking about stepping foot onto an elevator?  

Do you get an uneasy feeling crossing over a bridge, or are you afraid to speak in public?

Hypnosis can help you overcome your fears forever!  

A phobia is usually an emotional response to some past event that manifests itself in fear, and the emotion and event are stored in your subconscious mind and can be released using hypnotherapy techniques.

How would you like to be free of these restrictions in your life?

Tom was the Perfect Guide

Tom was the perfect guide for my first experience with hypnosis/hypnotherapy, as we worked on issues related to anticipatory anxiety. The sessions were incredibly powerful (and relaxing), as I let my subconscious take over. 45 min sessions go by in the blink of an eye. I will be back to see Tom again. Thank you!

Flying Used to be a Nightmare

I can't thank Tom Laessig enough for the support and guidance I received in overcoming my flight anxiety. Before Tom, flying used to be a nightmare for me. I would be in full panic mode before even getting to the airport : racing heart, sweaty palms, and white-knuckling the armrests the entire flight. I’ve even had full-blown panic attacks midair. I would do everything I could to avoid flying, so much so I hadn't flown in YEARS. The fear would just consume me for weeks beforehand. After just a few sessions with Tom I got on a flight 6hr. flight , and, for the first time in years, I felt calm. I actually sat back in my seat, relaxed, and didn’t feel that crushing sense of fear. I didn’t need to distract myself constantly or grip the seat for dear life. We also worked on my elevator anxiety, which has affected me for as long as I can remember. I used to avoid elevators completely, taking the stairs whenever possible . Now, I can step into an elevator without hyperventilating! . It's something I never thought I’d be able to do comfortably. Tom was so patient and really took the time to understand what I was experiencing. I always felt safe and heard iin our sessions. If you’re struggling with anxiety, I cannot recommend him enough. This experience has truly changed my life.

He Has My Recommendation

I feel that Tom Laessig is a warm and caring person who wants you to succeed in conquering your fears or whatever it is that you want to change. I was fearful of closed in spaces and now I am doing so much better. He has my recommendation.

My Fear of Riding on Highways

I chose to work with Tom after reading many 5 star reviews. Here’s another one! Tom has very nice demeanor and I felt very comfortable talking with him. The intake meeting on zoom was helpful to me regarding understanding the process and answering questions about hypnosis. I needed help with my fear of riding on highways as a passenger as well as driving in general. I recently completed my third session of three and the results are already remarkable! I have been on several long car trips without being nervous prior to or during the trip. I know I will continue to make progress and am grateful to have found Tom. You have nothing to lose. Give hypnosis a try if there’s something with which you’d like help!
