  • Phil L:

    Psychologists and psychiatrists are the professions that study phobias, I don’t think there is any other term to describe a person who specialises in the field.

  • Richard_SM:

    Well it comes under Psychology – not psychiatry.

    Phobias can be “cured” by therapy – many of them aren’t too difficult to treat. I’ve resolved phobias for two people myself – with just a basic psychology qualification. (friends)

    Depends on the phobia – or more importantly how the phobia developed.
