Trauma, Phobias, and PTSD

Experience Profound Healing with HBLU: Overcoming Trauma, Phobias, and PTSD Effectively

Learn How HBLU Helps

Whether it’s caused by loss, violence, physical injury, or illness, trauma is the most common difficulty people encounter in their lives. Traumatic shock occurs when something frightening happens that triggers the body’s fight or flight reflex. The memory of this reaction remains frozen in the body as unprocessed physical or emotional pain. Anything that was in the environment at that time can later trigger the original memory resulting in:


  • physical symptoms such as pain, headaches, digestive problems, weakened immune system and other health disorders or
  • emotional symptoms such as phobias or other irrational, exaggerated reactions that affect career success, relationships, and other goals.

Continued stress from trauma can lead to burnout!


Because phobic reactions are stored in the body, they cannot be healed using conscious or unconscious mind techniques. They must be released directly from the body (which is why talking or hypnotherapy alone is often ineffective or incomplete). This is also why physical treatment for injuries may be only partially successful in alleviating symptoms and regaining full function. Unless the shock imprint is cleared from the body, the problem may last for years.


Fortunately, the HBLU™ protocol for clearing trauma typically results in immediate and lasting elimination of both emotional and physical symptoms.

Nothing Is Impossible.

By Copyright 2025 Judith A. Swack, Ph.D. • January 31, 2025
James ’s brother, Samuel , sustained severe traumatic brain injury from a car accident. He spent the year going to many doctors for treatment, but could barely function. Samuel complained that not only did standard medical care not help him, but the doctors ignored and mistreated him. Whenever James suggested any complementary therapies, such as acupuncture, chiropractic, or HBLU, Samuel immediately came up with excuses as to why going for that kind of treatment was impossible. (Notice that he didn’t claim that that kind of treatment wouldn’t work. He just made it impossible to get there.) James said, “Even though I feel really guilty about it, I’ve stopped trying to help him because he makes everything impossible.” Monica ’s 25-year-old son, Ed , suffers from such severe debilitating Crohn’s disease that he couldn’t finish high school, can’t work, can’t leave the house, and can barely leave his room. Traditional medical care and medication is not helping. Monica and her husband bought him a dog thinking that would cheer him up, but Ed does not interact with it. Monica has suggested and made appointments for many complementary therapies such as nutrition, naturopathy, family therapy, and HBLU, but Ed refuses to go to these appointments. Monica experiences guilt and deep sorrow that her son is so ill, and she and her husband haven’t been able to help him. Valerie ’s partner, Nancy , is 200 pounds overweight, suffers from ADD and severe anxiety, and hates her job. Nancy had been on medication for the ADD and anxiety, but when her psychiatrist retired, never attempted to find another provider and let her medication lapse. When Valerie suggested that Nancy find new doctors and get back on medication to help her mental function and treatment for overweight, Nancy refused to make any follow-up phone calls or emails. Although they had gotten engaged in the Spring, by Fall, Valerie had asked for the ring back. Valerie said, “I don’t think I can live with her if she refuses to take care of herself and won’t let me help her.” What do James, Monica, and Valerie all have in common? They feel deep sorrow, guilt, and frustration that they can’t help someone they care about deeply. But the people who are suffering are also trapped in a pattern that continues to cause them suffering. Both the impotent helpers and the perpetual sufferers are trapped in a seducer strategy called, “I’m impossible.” What is a Seduction Pattern? Seduction patterns are some of the most energy draining, perverse, and frustrating patterns a person can experience. People with seduction patterns get tricked into doing things they don’t want to do. They are unable to leave bad relationships, jobs, family, or other upsetting situations.

November's Miracle

By S.C. LICSW • November 20, 2024
It’s that time again, where I get to shout out another amazing woman. Dr. Judith Swack has changed my life! In fact she has changed our family’s life. I found her in summer of 2023 . There was so much unhealed shit and my body was paying for it. I am 46 years old, and I have been in therapy on and off since I was 13. I’ve had some lovely therapists. I’m also a therapist myself. And I can honestly, wholeheartedly say, NOTHING has ever helped with lasting changes as much as Judith. She’s one of the smartest women I’ve ever met - she’s a neuroscientist + an energy healer. And the work she does - what we do in session - cannot even really explain it. It’s weird as f*ck. And it works!! In the past little over a year, I have managed to change a couple of behaviors I have not been able to change in 20 years. no exaggeration, and not for lack of trying. One of my 11 year old sons was paralyzed by fear of spiders - had a phobia, happened to be with me one day when I had an appointment and was going to wait in the waiting room, she said he could come in even though she doesn’t work with kids. I kid you not, she fixed that sh*t. In one session. He still doesn’t like spiders, but he isn’t frozen in fear anymore - he can get a tissue and pick it up and move on. This is unbelievable. And remember last week when I Saturday spotlighted my financial coach and how my husband’s feeling lonely in that part of our marriage is now getting resolved? Well, before I reached out to my financial coach to begin with, my husband and I had a joint session with Dr. Swack, where she helped heal a piece of our relationship which we’ve been stuck, going in circles for years! That clearing gave me the energy and thought to reach out for financial coaching to begin with… And if you need any convincing that this is the person for healing from trauma, I invite you to reach out and speak with my husband himself…. I % believe in all this energy healing etc, but he is a very logical, rational, no bullshit guy. He doesn’t do therapy. Talk therapy never worked for him, and he thinks it’s a complete waste. And I couldn’t explain this to him - how this is different or what it is. Nor did I try. I didn’t even ever suggest he should go… But when he saw our son get cured of the arachnophobia, and our son is very similar to him, no bullshit, rational, logical, and he said it worked, and we saw it worked he decided to try it… He decided to give it sessions… I think to prove to both of us it was all bullshit. He came home from the first session livid. But decided he would go back. He also came back from the second session angry, and told me all about how he yelled at Dr. Swack and told her it was bullshit… AND how she didn’t give a f*ck what he thought …”it doesn’t matter if you believe it or think it’s bullshit, I’m not talking to your rational mind, I’m talking to your subconscious” she’s told him numerous times… And suffice to say, he’s been about 9x now, and he too, is operating fundamentally differently. Our marriage is operating fundamentally differently. Traumas and patterns we have both carried and acted upon for years seem to be being dissolved. It’s really wild. If you are seeking a trauma healer or healing for anything, I can’t recommend Dr. Swack higher. I once asked Dr. Swack how to explain what she does to people, and she said “tell them I work with your subconscious”. I don’t think that really explains it fully… or maybe it does… either way it’s amazing. S.C. LICSW

Fear of Flying

“Before we worked together, I wasn’t just afraid of flying. I was petrified and unable to fly and skeptical that anyone could help, because nothing else had worked for me. (I had previously tried homeopathy and completed the “Fear of Flying” program, sponsored by the airport, to no avail.) Now, after just 3 sessions with you, my phobia is completely gone. I flew to New York, and although it was a turbulent flight, I was more comfortable than my flying companion. I was OK the night before, at the airport, walking down the tunnel to board the plane, on the plane and during the landing. I’m looking forward to my trip to Europe – as is my husband who thanks you as well. ”

Phobias in Pets


“As a graduate of your programs I learned how to use tapping in my job as a nurse helping people tap out anxiety from getting blood drawn and injections due to phobias of needles. Recently my cat became very ill and was on medication for a month and spent overnight in an animal hospital. When he came home, my cat hid from us for two months, one of the months hardly eating. Once we could get him out of hiding I decided to start tapping some of the trauma he had been through from being sick. To my amazement he sat still for a short time and let me tap him. I tapped the head between the eyes and just below his neck and on his chest. Over the course of a week my husband Paul was amazed and kept encouraging me to tap the cat as much as I could. Well now we have a 16 pound lap cat. Since he was a kitten and we tried to trim his claws he would not sit on our laps, so we stopped clipping his claws and left it up to the vet only as needed. Now he sleeps on Pauls chest. He is sitting on my lap sleeping as I do this letter, This may sound crazy but we now have a lap cat after 10 yrs of having the cat. This is a real miracle of how tapping is effective.”

Childhood Fear of Being Alone


“Treated by our associate David Danzig

I want to thank you for all your help with finding a way for (our son) Bryan to deal with his fears of being left alone and being kidnapped. It has made life so much easier for Bryan as well for both his mother and me. I must say that I was somewhat skeptical about the methods that you used, pressing forehead while holding back of head, zipping up and down, 1-2-3 swish, etc. but I cannot deny the results. They have been great, far exceeding what we expected and so immediate.


Bryan had been visiting a therapist for his fear of being left alone for a number of months prior to seeing the TV news report about Judith’s methods for dealing with phobias. Bryan was not making any progress until his first session with you. My wife commented to me afterward that Bryan really opened up to you and spoke very freely about his fears and seemed very comfortable.


Bryan can now stay at home and baby-sit his younger sister and let his Mom and Dad go out for a while or I do not have to rush home from work to watch the kids so that my wife can go to school. At the mall, he no longer has the fear of being kidnapped, which allows him to go into his favorite store on his own.


I was most fascinated with your techniques and finding the acceptable boundaries to relieve Bryan of his allergies to both cats and pollen. He has played with the cat at his friend’s house over the past couple of weeks with no apparent effects. In the past, he would keep well away because he would get all stuffed up and start sneezing and be miserable for hours afterwards.


I thank you, Bryan thanks you, my wife thanks you, and Bryan’s sister thanks you. Keep up the good work.”
