The Fear Clinic: Face Your Phobia

The Fear Clinic: Face Your Phobia (2025- )

RunningDocumentary showMedical

In the UK alone, an estimated 10 million people suffer with a phobia. From emetophobia (a chronic fear of vomit) to arachnophobia (a fear of spiders), musophobia (a fear of mice), ranidophobia (a fear of frogs) and even globophobia (a severe phobia of balloons). Often, deep-rooted in past experiences or traumas, these phobias can cause shame, stigma and even ridicule as people suffer in silence, sometimes with wide-ranging, negative impacts on their daily lives.

Filmed on fixed-rig cameras, in each episode of The Fear Clinic, three British phobia sufferers check into the state-of-the-art clinic in Amsterdam, where a renowned Dutch scientist and her team of psychologists will treat their phobias.

Episode 6

This episode meets three people who are determined to manage their inherited phobias, or are dealing with phobias that they worry about passing on to their children. Ex-prison officer Paula is one tough cookie, but when it comes to spiders, she crumbles. Paula inherited her phobia from her mum and recalls being trapped in her bedroom for fear of a spider. Chloe has emetophobia - the phobia of people being sick - and talks about her sadness at not being able to care for her three young daughters. Chloe's eldest daughter is already starting to show signs of the same phobia, after seeing Chloe's reaction. Milly's had a phobia of frogs for as long as she remembers. She wants to be treated for her phobia before her two young children inherit it too. Can the clinic help Paula, Chloe and Milly?
