Channel 4’s The Fear Clinic: Face Your Phobia returns Tuesday with a trio of patients confronting their deepest anxieties. In Amsterdam’s specialized clinic, these individuals bravely face phobias ranging from the commonplace to the debilitating.
Zara’s fear of birds, or ornithophobia, has reached a point where she worries about transmitting her anxiety to her young son. Meanwhile, Gary, a gardener by profession, ironically finds himself paralyzed by a fear of frogs. His phobia clashes humorously with his career choice, raising the question: can he learn to coexist with the amphibious creatures he encounters daily?
Finally, Lisa seeks help for emetophobia, the fear of vomit. This phobia often stems from traumatic experiences, and The Fear Clinic explores the root of Lisa’s anxiety as she attempts to process and overcome her past. Clinician Vivian takes Zara to a pigeon coop as a part of helping her reach her maximum fear level so that she can learn to manage her ornithophobia. Can the clinic’s unique approach help these individuals reclaim their lives from the grip of fear? Find out Tuesday on Channel 4.
The Fear Clinic: Face Your Phobia airs Tuesday, February 11, 2025, on Channel 4.
