Fear of Colours Therapy & Counselling
The fear of Colours is also known as Chromophobia.
People suffering from migraines or those with hyper-sensitive vision may develop a fear of colours because of the associated pain.
Fear is the emotional experience that we have when we perceive there to be some sort of threat in our immediate location or context, or even that a threat may present itself in the future (anticipatory anxiety) and this is certainly true for somebody who has a fear of Colours.
The important thing to be aware of is that we only need to perceive (believe) that something is a threat in order to trigger the fear reaction and just as importantly, what one person perceives to be a threat may not be regarded as threatening to somebody else.
We are fully aware of the subjective nature of individual fears and will treat you and your Fear of Colours seriously when you consult us for help.

Fear of Colours Symptoms
The symptoms associated with the fear of Colours have much in common with other fears and phobias and may include:
- Generalised Anxiety
- Insomnia & sleeping problems
- Low Self-Esteem
- Low Self-Confidence
- Panic attacks
- Overthinking things
- Paranoia
- Stress
Often the symptoms of Chromophobia can seem to occur without the object of fear even being present indicating that the fear of Colours has become normalised into everyday life.
This normalisation process often results in the development and use of safety behaviours in an attempt to prevent exposure to triggering events which, paradoxically, may cause the problem to get worse.
In other words, safety behaviours tend to reinforce the fear of Colours rather than diminish it!
Chromophobia may be the result of earlier traumatic experiences that can be directly (or indirectly) linked to a specific object or situation, but this is not always the case because fears can also be inherited as learned behaviours from the social context in which a person is brought up.
The good news is that the majority of people who suffer with a fear of Colours will find a course of psychotherapy highly beneficial.

Alternative Psychotherapies for the Fear of Colours
Although we generally recommend CBT for Chromophobia, we also offer alternative psychotherapies for people preferring a different approach.
These include:
Psychodynamic therapy which focuses on understanding why the problem has arisen and relies on the therapy relationship to bring about change.
Counselling which is less formally structured than CBT but still provides a safe and non-judgmental environment in which to discuss issues. Talking problems through with a skilled counsellor is often therapeutic in its own right.
Hypnotherapy is an alternative form of psychotherapy that can be applied to a very wide range of problems and is available with Joan.
