Fantastic experience. I now look forward to each day instead of dreading what might happen. I have not had an anxiety attack or worried over silly uncontrollable things since. Claire is a very good listener and easy to talk to. She seems to know exactly how you feel. My life is definitely enhanced. I am happier, stronger and able to deal with situations better. I feel braver, much more confident and optimistic. Thank you again so much
Emetophobia is an intense fear of illness or being sick. The people I help overcome their sick phobia are always surprised at just how common it is. Of course most people don’t tell anyone they have emetophobia. Why? – because they feel silly or embarrassed. My clients previously…
- Avoided public places – cinema, concerts, restaurants etc
- Were always on the lookout for danger zones, carrying hand sanitizer everywhere
- Constantly listening out for any bugs doing the rounds
It’s an exhausting life with the fear of sickness controlling most if not all aspects of the person’s life. Now they are free to stay over at friends’ houses, enjoy parties and social events, pick their children up from school, enjoy meals out and generally feel in control of their lives again.
You don’t have to live with your sick phobia – after all you weren’t born with it! You are only born with 2 fears – the fear of falling and the fear of loud noises. Everything else has been created which means you can uncreate it! Find out how…

Hypnosis for Emetophobia Gloucester
Emetophobia, the fear of being sick, although hardly ever heard of, is in fact very common with approximately 3 million sufferers in the UK alone. Often when people consult me for help, they have tried just about everything to rid themselves of this debilitating fear.
Once we uncover the causes of your phobia it will start to have less of an impact on your life.
The sufferer will rarely tell anyone about it.
For a start, sufferers feel very silly and even a little embarrassed about their phobia. Look at the testimonials here and you will read how a young lady finally plucked up the courage to seek her doctor’s advice only to be laughed at, which left her even more embarrassed about her fear. Thankfully she continued to search for help and contacted me. Following some sessions at my practice she is finally able to enjoy her life without constantly worrying about being sick or vomiting.
So if you, or someone you know, is suffering unnecessarily with this phobia – rest assured – there is a solution. Just read on…
- This is also known as Vomit Phobia, Fear of being sick, Fear of Gagging, Sickness Phobia
- Most sufferers are female, in fact only approximately 10% are male.
- Sometimes emetophobes are incorrectly diagnosed as being anorexic however their refusal to eat has little to do with losing weight but a lot to do with their fear of being sick.
- Sufferers may avoid alcohol, crowds, parties or anywhere where they think they may be sick or encounter someone else vomiting.
- Often they worry about hygiene paying great attention to cleanliness and perhaps avoiding work when a colleague has been ill.
- Sufferers may avoid becoming pregnant due to the worry of morning sickness
- People with emetophobia spend a lot of time worrying about their phobia. Much of their time is spent attempting to control their lives so as to minimise or avoid the risk of being sick or seeing others being sick. Sometimes this will involve not leaving their home as they cannot control what might happen if they do.
There is little research about this phobia and the studies that have been undertaken have mainly had very few participants. Generally emetophobia is considered difficult to treat.
Treatments such as Exposure Therapy are not very helpful as being exposed to vomit is an emetophobe’s worst nightmare. You can imagine the panic and anxiety that would ensue. Although people can be helped by Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) often this treatment has proved ineffective and doesn’t tend to decrease symptoms.
Why is the hypnosis so successful in treating Emetophobia?
During your sessions we address your primary limiting beliefs. We also work on your self esteem, social anxiety and removing subconscious blockages. Knowledge is power and with your newfound knowledge you are then empowered to use the skills and resources I teach you to help you overcome your phobia.
Have a read here about a young lady’s experience of this phobia. She has been suffering from emetophobia for many years. Her life was limited as she was afraid to drive long distances or on motorways in case she felt sick. Within a few weeks she completely changed her life and even went on to set up her own business, travelling miles to attend business meetings!
The sessions are undertaken in calm confidential surroundings where you will feel relaxed and at ease, free of any fear of being judged.
Now you really can free yourself of your emetophobia through hypnosis. Having helped numerous sufferers I know only too well the effect this debilitating phobia can have.

TESTIMONIALS
Kind words from my lovely clients
It changed my way of thinking. I have a clearer view of everything. I always left feeling uplifted. I’m more confident, more positive. Very relaxing and friendly. In a word – life changing. I would, and have, recommended to friends
I thoroughly enjoyed my session with Claire. She herself was so friendly and welcoming whilst still remaining professional. I think Claire is awesome. Very inspiring. My actual session was brilliant. I felt so relaxed and chilled out. I left feeling as though I didn’t have a single worry in the world. Thank you again Claire.
I’m so glad that I discovered Claire, she is amazing and so supportive. I’ve lost 16lb in 3 weeks and feel healthier and more positive than I have for years. I can’t recommend her highly enough. Thank you so much!
Claire is brilliant – I just wish I had gone to her sooner! I’m no longer anxious and I have completely changed my life around. I am finally free of fears that were holding me back and I have a very exciting future ahead.
Having struggled for 40 years with anxiety, panic attacks and numerous phobias, and trying everything from cognitive behaviour therapy, hypnotherapy, hands on healing and prescription medication in an effort to overcome it, I had all but given up. A friend recommended Claire. After 6 amazing sessions, I feel like a different person! If you are reading this, and wanting to change your life, give Claire a call, you won’t regret it
You gave me tools to use that made it easier to cope – most importantly to be aware. It was a really beneficial time.
Claire is incredible. I saw her 5 years ago and she helped me to realise the power of my mind and how I can change the way I feel about certain situations. Just recently my son suddenly started to suffer with anxiety, after a few sessions with Claire the difference in him is amazing.
I simply cannot recommend Claire enough – she will help you to change your life!
Just to say I’ve managed to get about a stone off since I saw you last. The biggest change being that I joined the gym and now no longer have a fear of joining in classes. I’ve lost 20 inches overall! Thank you so much for helping me change my mind set.
