Emetophobia
Join over 20,000 people who have overcome their emetophobia with The Thrive Programme! The most reliable, predictable, proven cure for a phobia of being sick - fully backed up by scientific research and over 30 years' experience successfully treating thousands of emetophobes around the world.
The Thrive Programme® is mental health training that teaches people the skills and resources to overcome mental health issues and learn to thrive. It is an evidence-based training programme which you can study at home with a book, online course, or with the help of a specially trained Thrive Programme Coach®. The programme is simple to follow, fun and engaging and usually takes just 6-8 weeks to complete (and to fully overcome emetophobia).
Thriving people have a skillset that means they are more robust, resilient, and confident. They feel powerful over their emotions and in control of their lives. Thriving people find it easier to resist social pressures, take more responsibility for their physical and mental health and live a more positive and active life.
Based on 30+ years clinical experience and extensive research, The Thrive Programme creator Rob Kelly developed this specific version of his programme to help people suffering from a fear of being sick, also known as emetophobia.
This treatment for emetophobia is by far the most successful and in-depth help for emetophobia anywhere in the world. It tackles the root cause, not just the symptoms, enabling you to completely, and permanently, overcome your emetophobia.
Rob Kelly explains how it really is possible to cure your emetophobia/fear of being sick.

This programme is called "Cure Your Emetophobia & Thrive," because it doesn't just help you overcome emetophobia and related symptoms. The nature of the programme means you will also improve all areas of your mental health, confidence and wellbeing and learn to live life to the full. This 'preventative' method means you will have the skills and resilience to manage stress and prevent mental health problems arising. It's like riding a bike - when you learn to thrive, you thrive for life.
Anyone, any age, anywhere can suffer from emetophobia. We therefore wanted to make this programme as accessible as possible, so that everyone has the opportunity to overcome it. There are various ways to access the programme:
- THE THRIVE PROGRAMME FOR EMETOPHOBIA WORKBOOK: (currently available in English, Danish and French, and soon to be available in Spanish and Portugese as well). You work through the manual at home, by yourself. The English version of the book is also available online - so you can read it on your phone, tablet or PC.
- ONLINE COURSE: There are two full online video courses available - one 'standard' and one 'advanced.' You work through the book and the course simultaneously.
- THRIVE PROGRAMME COACH: If you want 1-2-1 support, you can go through the programme with a trained Thrive Programme Coach®. A Thrive Programme Coach® will guide you all the way through the programme and personalise the training to suit your needs. You see them weekly either face-to-face or via Zoom/Skype/FaceTime. This means you can be based anywhere in the world and see the very best person to help you overcome emetophobia.
However you access the programme, the results are predictable, quantifiable and 'lifechanging' (as cited in many testimonials)

Why is this programme different?
The programme was formed out of 25+ years' clinical experience and extensive research, meaning you will thoroughly overcome emetophobia, not just 'live with' or 'manage' it. Furthermore, the programme doesn’t just teach you how to overcome your fear of being sick, it teaches you much, much more than that – it teaches you how to thrive.
Emetophobia is severely debilitating, and for many sufferers, a lifelong condition. So while this might seem 'too good to be true,' we urge you to watch the hundreds of testimonials where emetophobes from all across the severity spectrum talk about how they are now emetophobia free.
This programme is totally different to anything else you will have comes across: it’s not therapy (therapy doesn’t reliably help for emetophobia), it’s not C.B.T. (poor success rate, and only aims to help you live WITH your phobia), it doesn’t involve hypnosis (poor success rate, potential negative side effects), and it doesn’t involve exposure therapy (makes people worse, poor success rate, can be very stressful). Ours is a scientific, research-backed, evidence-based training programme that, quite simply, teaches you how to completely re-wire how you think, feel and behave.
The programme is simple, accessible and affordable. You can undertake it at home by yourself with the manual or online course, or with the help of a Thrive Programme Coach®.
