Phobia Therapy, Counselling & Treatment NZ
On this page are counsellors and therapists listed who offer therapy, treatment, counselling and support to people with a phobia.
A phobia is an anxiety disorder defined by a persistent and excessive fear of an object or situation. Phobias typically result in a rapid onset of fear and are usually present for more than six months. Those affected go to great lengths to avoid the situation or object, to a degree greater than the actual danger posed.
