IF you have a phobia, Matt Hudson wants to hear from you.

The Newcastle behavioural consultant, who claims he can deprogramme people to cure all kinds of phobias, is looking for people with a problem to benefit from free therapy.

The clinical hypnotherapist and lecturer at Northumbria University is running a seven-day course on Tyneside for people who want to become NLP practitioners (neuro linguistic programming).

All he needs are people with problems for trainees to work with.

"I want to help them, I am looking for people with phobias, allergies, lack of confidence, stress or anxiety," he said.

Anyone who thinks they might be able to help Mr Hudson should ring 0191-236 9800 as soon as possible and leave a message.
