Creature Courage is proud to announce that from October their highly successful arachnophobia therapy workshop, The Spider Courage Experience, will be at Chessington World of Adventures Resort. Creature Courage has teamed up with the Surrey Theme Park to deliver a brand-new VIP Experience just in time for Halloween, where participants can face their fears in a fun way and change their lives all at the same time.

Run by founder and spider educator, Britain Stelly, and hypnotherapist, Adam Cox, The Spider Courage Experience will take place from 1pm to 5pm on selected Saturdays and offer a range of different therapeutic techniques such as, NLP, CBT, hypnotherapy and education to give participants tools to build confidence in all areas of life beyond just the fear of spiders. Not only that, but on the same day of the workshop, participants will be able to enjoy the Theme Park before their life changing experience!

The Spider Courage Experience has been hugely successful with a 100% success rate thus far. Everyone to attend so far has been able to capture and release a house spider or also hold a tarantula by the end of the workshop.

ITV1’s Good Morning Britain recently filmed a spider phobia therapy session with Britain at Chessington, to highlight the extent that those with arachnophobia are affected by spiders, particularly during this time of year. Over three days of filming Britain helped a range of volunteers, including celebrities such as James Jordan from BBC One’s Strictly Come Dancing and Amber Davies, from ITV2’s Love Island, to overcome their fears.

Adam Cox, the hypnotherapist for The Spider Courage Experience, explained why such dramatic changes can happy so quickly, “Phobias are learnt quickly either by an initial sensitising event of often from parents or family members. The mind works quickly to develop a fear as part of a survival strategy. Therefore, the techniques we use can create an immediate change. Many people can’t believe that you can destroy a phobia in a few hours but it’s easier to do in a few ours than a few days as that’s how the mind works!”.

The next Spider Courage Experience at Chessington World of Adventures Resort takes place on Saturday October 21. Call the VIP Experiences team at Chessington on 01372731673 or email VIPexperiences@chessington.co.uk Plus visit the website for more details. Chessington World of Adventures
