Fear of bridges is called gephyrophobia. It can have several component parts such as being afraid of heights or being afraid of large bodies of water. Many times, such fears are rooted in events from your past. Hypnosis can help determine the event that caused the fear and help your unconscious mind make a shift in perception. You can overcome your fear of bridges with hypnosis. You might go white-knuckled and grip the steering wheel of your vehicle as if it were a life line all the way across the bridge. Or you might feel sick at the thought of driving across a bridge. Hypnosis can help.

How to Overcome a Fear of Water with Hypnosis
Having respect for water is a healthy thing for humans. After all, we don’t have gills to extract oxygen from water. But an extreme fear of water can prevent you from learning to swim or from becoming a good swimmer even if you learn how to take a few strokes or swim on your back. Good swimmers can develop a fear of water later on in life. Unreasonable fear of water or aquaphobia can keep you from enjoyable activities such as boating, going on a cruise or even driving across a bridge. The good news is that you can overcome a fear of water with hypnosis.
