What is Sydney Phobia Clinic?

Sydney Phobia Clinic is Australia’s first psychology clinic dedicated exclusively to the treatment of specific phobias. Since 2016, we’ve helped over 800 clients overcome life-limiting fears—quickly, practically, and with lasting results.

Our focused approach combines Cognitive Behavioural Therapy with cutting-edge Virtual Reality Exposure to deliver science-backed relief in just five structured sessions. Unlike generalist services, we work almost exclusively with phobias—so our team, tools, and sessions are designed around what works best.

Whether it’s fear of flying, heights, needles, animals, or something more unique, we tailor treatment to your goals. You might find us in a headset, inside a flight simulator, or even at a doggy daycare—because the best therapy isn’t always in a therapy room.

At Sydney Phobia Clinic, we do more than talk—we help you take action, reclaim your confidence, and get back to living your best life.

How is Sydney Phobia Clinic different from other psychology clinics?

Most psychology clinics treat a wide range of mental health issues—but phobias are often overlooked or under-resourced. At Sydney Phobia Clinic, we focus exclusively on phobias, which allows us to invest deeply in tools and techniques that work.

Effective phobia treatment requires more than just talking—it requires the right resources. That’s why we’ve built a comprehensive toolkit including Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), customised manuals, photo books, worksheets, and real-world simulations. This gives us the flexibility to match treatment to each specific fear—whether that’s flying, driving, animals, medical procedures, or something less common.

By concentrating solely on phobias, we’ve been able to create structured, goal-oriented programs that are practical, fast, and designed to help people re-engage with life.
