Does this sound familiar?
You know a spider cannot hurt you. That flying is safer than driving. That a lift is just a lift. And still your body freezes, you sweat, you want out. A phobia is an irrational fear, and that word, irrational, is exactly what makes it so frustrating: your mind is on board, your body is not.
So you avoid. You take the stairs, you cancel the trip, you let someone else deal with the spider, you skip the presentation. It works, but your world gets smaller. And sometimes there comes a moment when avoidance is no longer an option: a flight for work, a move to the twelfth floor, a child asking why you do not dare.
Hypnotherapy for phobias exists for precisely this kind of fear: sharply defined, strongly felt, and almost always traceable to a single moment.
How DIT is used for this
A phobia often forms in a flash. One experience, usually in childhood, in which your body links a thing or a situation to danger. That link is stored in your subconscious and replays every time you meet the thing again. Talking about the spider changes little, because the link was not made with words.
In a DIT session you go back, in a relaxed and focused state, to that first moment. You see what happened then and what you, as a child or a teenager, concluded from it. Together with Draga you work on processing that experience and loosening the link. Because a phobia usually has one clear source, it suits the one-session approach of DIT well.
Your personal recording is meant to reinforce the new pattern afterwards. If you encounter the situation in the three months that follow, you can let Draga know how it went.

Frequently asked questions about phobias
Which phobias is this suitable for?
Most specific phobias: fear of flying, heights, spiders, dogs, needles, lifts, the dentist, small spaces, water. Social phobia and fear of presenting also belong here. If you are unsure about your situation, ask in the free introductory call.
Do I have to face a spider or get on a plane during the session?
No. DIT is not exposure therapy. You work with your memories and your inner experience, not with the object itself. You simply sit at home or in the practice room.
I have had my phobia since childhood. Is one session really enough?
Precisely with phobias that formed early, the source is often one clear moment, and that is exactly what DIT works on. A long history does not mean the processing has to take long. And if nothing has changed after 3 months, you get a second session at no cost.
Can I do a session for a phobia online?
Yes. The method was designed for Zoom. You are in your own surroundings, which many people find reassuring when dealing with a phobia.
