Demand is being shaped by a broader shortage across mental health and allied health s...

The pocket watch swings. A confident stranger clicks his fingers. A volunteer, utterly convinced she's a chicken, starts clucking on cue. That's what most Australians picture the moment they hear the word "hypnosis". But it's almost nothing like what happens in a real hypnotherapy session.

A phobia isn't just a strong dislike or a moment of nerves. It's an automatic, overwhelming fear response that can stop you from flying to a family holiday, getting a blood test your doctor has recommended, or even walking into a room where someone's dog might be.
