I've used their "fast phobia cure" to amazing effect - at least it amazed me (and him) at the time.
It took less than 29 minutes of text chat back in early April, and the issue remains solved.
Interesting, that seems like an especially cheap and concrete thing to test.

I suspect the efficacy of this method depends a lot on the subject's ability to really bring forth the internal representations of the phobia (ie mental images, feelings, etc) so that they can be changed.
Indeed it is. The hardest part seems to be finding subjects. If you know one and would like to try it, I could walk you through it and explain a few failure modes to avoid.
