Overview

We’ve all felt the chill of a phobia - whether it’s heights, spiders, going to the dentist or something else entirely. 

This session dives into the complexities of phobias to help you gain valuable insight and understanding.

Not only will you explore the nature of these fears, but you’ll also learn effective coping strategies to confidently face them head-on.
