Support for Fear of Flying with Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy in Oxfordshire or Online
Are you one of the countless individuals whose fear of flying has kept you grounded for years?
Fear of flying affects many people — whether it’s anxiety before take-off, discomfort in enclosed spaces, or a general sense of panic about being in the air.
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone - and there may be ways to approach flying differently.
At HeadFirst Hypnotherapy, I offer a gentle and supportive approach to support you in feeling calmer, more confident, and more in control when thinking about flying. Using Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy, sessions are tailored around your goals, supporting you to build emotional resilience and explore a more confident mindset around flying.
What Is Fear of Flying and Why Does It Happen?
Fear of flying (also known as aviophobia) affects many people and can develop for a range of reasons. It may stem from past experiences, fear of heights, discomfort in enclosed spaces, or simply the unfamiliar nature of flying.
For many, it’s not about logic — it’s about how the brain and body respond in certain situations. Flight anxiety can involve physical sensations, racing thoughts, and feelings of panic, particularly when anticipating or experiencing air travel..
What Awaits You?
Embark on a supportive hypnosis journey focused on helping you feel calmer, more confident, and more in control when thinking about flying — and in everyday situations too.
🌟 Supporting calmer responses around flying
Work towards responding differently to flying-related anxiety and phobias, as you build calm, clarity, and confidence before and during air travel.
🌟 Building confidence and emotional control
Develop a stronger sense of control over your thoughts and emotional responses, supporting a more grounded and confident approach to flying.
🌟 Supporting overall wellbeing

🌟 Skills that can support wider life situations
The tools explored through hypnotherapy aren’t limited to flying. Many people find they can also support resilience, confidence, and emotional balance in other areas of life over time.
How Solution Focused Hypnotherapy Can Help
The Process
During hypnotherapy sessions, I use a calm, structured, and supportive approach that draws on Solution Focused Hypnotherapy principles and elements of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP).
Rather than analysing the past, sessions focus on your goals and how you would like to think, feel, and respond when it comes to flying. Working in a relaxed, focused state allows you to explore new perspectives and ways of responding to flying-related fears.
Many people find this approach supports them in viewing flying experiences differently, developing a greater sense of ease, confidence, and emotional balance over time.
The aim is not to relive or revisit difficult memories, but to help you build awareness, resilience, and practical mental strategies that can support calmer responses before and during flights..
How Many Sessions Will I Need?
The number of sessions varies depending on how fear of flying shows up for you.
Some people experience flying anxiety as a specific situational fear, while for others it forms part of a broader pattern of anxiety or stress. Because of this, there isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach.
For some clients, progress around fear of flying may be explored over a small number of sessions. Where flying anxiety is linked to wider anxiety patterns, it can be helpful to begin with a short course of Solution Focused Hypnotherapy before focusing more directly on flying-related fears.
This helps build emotional stability and coping strategies first, creating a supportive foundation for further work. Your individual needs and approach will be discussed during the initial consultation.
Imagine walking into an airport terminal with your head held high, noticing a greater sense of calm and control. Picture yourself boarding an airplane feeling more at ease, able to engage with the flying experience with increased confidence and comfort.
