Many people come to me feeling anxious about flying, worrying about take-off, landing, turbulence or worst-case scenarios. Even the thought of booking a flight can bring on a wave of panic. Some people can trace their fear of flying back to a specific event, such as a turbulent flight or a stressful journey. For others, it seems to appear from nowhere and feels completely irrational. Either way, when the mind is anticipating danger, hypnosis can help.
Hypnotherapy for flying helps to reframe those anxious thoughts and create a calmer, more rational response to flying. We teach your subconscious that you are safe, which neutralises the fear and replaces it with confidence.
My bespoke sessions use a combination of coaching, NLP and clinical hypnosis to overcome flying phobias. If you would like to learn more about my fear of flying hypnotherapy programme, get in touch. I’d be happy to help

How Hypnotherapy for Fear of Flying Works
Flight hypnosis is a gentle, structured approach that can help address the negative thoughts behind the anxiety. For some people, the trigger is turbulence or take-off, for others it’s the idea of being trapped at 30,000 feet. These fears activate the body’s fight-or-flight response, flooding it with adrenaline sometimes before you even reach the airport.
Instead of battling the anxiety, I work with your subconscious to soothe these fears, using a combination of NLP and clinical hypnotherapy for the fear of flying itself as well as the anticipatory build-up beforehand. During sessions, you’re guided into a relaxed state where your mind becomes more receptive to helpful suggestions. In that calm space, it learns a new way to respond to flying, rewiring the fearful associations and creating a sense of safety. Once the fear has gone, flying can feel like a completely normal, ordinary experience. Many people start enjoying flying and see it as an opportunity to relax and switch off.
This gentle, structured approach aims to restore control and confidence.

Some people feel better after just one session, but the subconscious needs repetition to embed new patterns so I usually recommend between two and four sessions for lasting results.
