Fear of Friday the 13th (paraskevidekatriaphobia)
For some people Friday the 13th is a joke. For others it brings real anxiety, with plans cancelled and a sense that something is bound to go wrong.
What it feels like
- Dread as the date approaches
- Avoiding travel, decisions or plans on the day
- Looking for signs that something bad is coming
Common questions
Where does it come from?
Superstitions are learned, usually from family and culture. They tend to stick when anxiety is already high and the superstition gives it something to focus on.
How do sessions work?
I use hypnotherapy and NLP to change how your mind responds to Friday the 13th. Sessions are one to one over Zoom, and you get a recording of the hypnosis to listen to afterwards.
How many sessions will I need?
Many clients notice a real difference after one 90 minute session. If the fear goes back a long way, three sessions gives us room to make the change stick.
