Harry Helps Cindy Overcome Her Snake Phobia
Imagine wanting to go somewhere you've dreamed of for years but being held back because the one creature you fear the most is in fact quite a common site there, the snake.
Cindy's own words
Harry deals with a variety of symptoms that any one of us could
fall pray to at any time in our lives. His main focus
though is on the adverse affects that Depression, Stress and Anxiety
related symptoms have upon our bodies and minds, causing everything
from the formation of habits, phobias, to full blown nervous
disorders. Here is a typical example of what Harry deals with:
"So, my dream holiday is booked to India and Sri Lanka, I've waited ten years to go and apart from being thrilled and excited, I am at the same time terrified of any encounter I may have with a snake (which is quite likely). I have had a phobia of snakes for as long as I can remember and have been unable to look at a picture in a book or on a screen. It also ruled out visiting reptile houses at zoos when my children were small. Any sight would make me break out in a sweat, feel sick and would have to leave immediately.
"I returned to see if the problem could be solved. And, WOW, after two hours, not only had I managed to enter a room where snakes were present (in a vivarium) but I had gradually progressed across the room to get closer and closer and finally managing to handle the said corn snake!"
It was recommended that I go and see Harry. Two weeks before I was due to fly, and not being able to put it off any longer, I made the phone call. After an initial meeting, I returned to see if the problem could be solved. And, WOW, after two hours, not only had I managed to enter a room where snakes were present (in a vivarium) but I had gradually progressed across the room to get closer and closer and finally managing to handle the said corn snake! I would never have believed it possible, I was thrilled and delighted. I made one further visit a few days later and happily and boldly entered the room (snakes present again) and after a relaxed chat, I, Yes, I took the lid off the box, removed the small container, carefully took out the snake, played with it for a while and then held the bigger one who was much stronger. I couldn't believe it, I felt no fear at all. The miracle had happened.
I took this photo of two cobras and Adam took the photo of me taking the photo!!! He is thrilled for me too.
I can't thank Harry enough, he has truly changed my life!"
