ANXIETY, PHOBIAS,
AND STRESS DISORDERS:
Anxiety and its physical component distress has been called the plague of
mankind. Dr. Elizabeth Kubler-Ross says that the only fears that we are born
with are the fear of falling and fear of loud noises. She suggests that our
remaining fears are created by us thus becoming our reality. Churchill, during
the World War II bombing of England rallied his countrymen by saying "the
only fear we have to fear is fear itself". It is our orientation that
most anxieties are caused by improperly focusing on life. People become
conditioned to ruminate about past quilts and sorrows and future catastrophes
which usually never occur. In a state of mind which we frame as "negative
self-hypnosis", they send these fears deep into their unconscious creating
physical distress and preventing the fulfillment of potential.
We at NPS are trained to help people face their fears directly, and understand
the processes by which these fears are being generated and reinforced. Our
strategies include desensitization, positive conditioning, neurolinguistic
programming, imagery training, rational emotive therapy, biofeedback, and
clinical hypnosis. We have successfully treated generalized anxiety, panic
disorders, agoraphobia, phobias (such as fear of people, bridges, tunnels,
flying, and attending meetings), and situational anxieties due to performance
demands or changes in life.
Please note that Dr. Neboschick is a certified flight instructor and has often
incorporated hypnosis into an actual flight to desensitize flying phobias.
