Phobia Success Stories

A fear of vomit is known as emetophobia. Becky thought that she had suffered with emetophobia for the last 8 years, but during therapy with The Speakmans, she realized that she had struggled with the phobia ever since she was a child. As a result of her emetophobia, Becky struggles to leave the house.

It’s estimated that 6.9 million people in the UK have agoraphobia (a fear of leaving the house). 52-year old Vicky has spent most of her adult life trapped in her own house, suffering with agoraphobia since she was 5 years old, sometimes not leaving the house for 6 months.
