Yes: Cognitive behavior therapy (cbt) is helpful in eliminating or revising thoughts that are unnecessary and causing distress. Fear of intimacy is likely something that could be addressed with a skilled clinician with cbt expertise.

It could be: CBT can be helpful in addressing fear of intimacy and other relationship concerns. What most people find, however, is that a quality relationship with a trained mental health professional is more important than any particular theoretical orientation. Find a therapist you feel comfortable with and start discussing your concerns.
