Fear of travel (hodophobia)

A fear of travel can show up on planes, trains, long car trips or even when you are just leaving the house. It can make holidays, work trips and family visits feel out of reach. It can be helped.

What it feels like

  • Dreading trips well before leaving home
  • Cancelling plans that involve travelling
  • Feeling panicky in stations, airports or cars

Common questions

Is this the same as a fear of flying?

Not quite. Fear of flying is one particular fear, while a fear of travel can cover several kinds of transport, being away from home or not being able to get back. We find out which parts matter most to you.

How can you help?

I use hypnotherapy and NLP to change how your mind responds to the thing you fear, so the old alarm stops going off. 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.
