I’d had a couple of sessions to help with my fear of heights from a ‘cheap deal’ I found on the Web around 3 years ago. It didn’t help me at all.
I found Alex and The PHOBIAMAN Clinic after researching different providers, and we had a chat on the phone first. I told him I was sceptical after 49 years of phobia, and after my previous poor experience.
He talked about his approach and another bonus was the sound of his voice; it felt like a voice I could listen to and concentrate on making progress. Before I finished the programme I was able to visit the Shard with Alex and sit by the window on the 31st Floor, and visit New York with my wife to stand on top of the Rockefeller Centre (853’ up, with a glass wall around it) I then went to Kuala Lumpur a few months later and went up the KL Tower (906’) and the Petronas Towers (1,202’)
And I’ve done a few other things I previously found impossible. Such as riding my motorbike on 2,000’ passes in the Lake District.
The sessions have changed my perspective on heights, and I understand a lot more on how to recognise and exercise control of my feelings. I would not have come this far without Alex’s support and patience and I am living a fuller life’
