Fear of Water
Overcome Your Fear of water with Hypnotherapy in Exeter
Does Being Near Water Make You Anxious?
If the sight or thought of deep water, swimming pools, or even bathtubs makes you feel uneasy, you may have Aquaphobia—an intense fear of bodies of water. This fear can impact daily life, making holidays, swimming, and even being near water a stressful experience.
Common Aquaphobia triggers include:
❌ Fear of drowning or being unable to breathe
❌ Avoiding swimming pools, lakes, or the ocean
❌ Feeling uneasy around deep or open water
❌ Anxiety when seeing or hearing water, even on TV
If this fear has been holding you back, know that you can overcome it—without exposure therapy or reliving past trauma.
Imagine Feeling Calm and in Control Around Water
-
Walking by a lake or beach without panic.
-
Swimming with confidence and ease.
-
Enjoying holidays without water-related anxiety.
-
Feeling safe and relaxed around pools, rivers, and the sea.
Why Does the Fear of water Feel So Strong?
Your fear of water isn’t just about being cautious—it’s a subconscious survival response. Even if you know you’re safe, your brain perceives water as a threat, triggering automatic panic.
This can cause:
✔ Shortness of breath, dizziness, or nausea
✔ Avoidance of water-related situations
✔ A deep-rooted fear of drowning, even in shallow water
✔ Panic attacks near large bodies of water
Because this reaction is automatic, logic alone won’t stop it. That’s why hypnotherapy is so effective—it works directly with the subconscious mind.


How Hypnotherapy Can Help You Overcome Aquaphobia
Hypnotherapy rewires your subconscious response, replacing fear with confidence and control. Instead of panic, your mind learns to stay calm and at ease around water.
Through a powerful combination of hypnosis, NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), and other advanced techniques, I help you remove the fear response linked to water, allowing you to feel safe and relaxed near pools, lakes, and the sea, while rebuilding your confidence around water-related activities.
