Ester had always been afraid of rats and mice, but particularly rats, and now in her sixties it was still a real problem, recently when out walking with her friend she saw a rat and in her panic she tried to climb onto her friend's back.
After a two hour session, where basically we simply talked and i took her through some simple visualisations. She left not sure whether we had gained anything at all. Two weeks later she phoned me to say that she had just seen a rat while cycling past a wooded area at the side of the road. Instead of falling off her bike and screaming, she simple noted the presence of the rat and cycled calmly passed.
