Depends...: It depends on the nature of your disorder. This can be a symptom of a mood disorder in which case you can benefit from individual or group therapy and/or medication.

CBT: Seek a cognitive-behavioral therapist who specializes in phobias. One method they use is systematic desensitization which slowly and incrementally brings the person closer and closer to the thing they are afraid of in slow, graduated steps that help make the anxiety more tolerable.
