Could i see a doctor about phobias instead of paying to see someone?

See psychotherapist: You should see a mental health professional with expertise in treating phobia (a psychologist or psychiatrist-- both are "doctors" btw). Phobias can be treated effectively, but you are not going to get appropriate treatment from your primary care doc, if that is what you are asking.
