They don't have to lock you in a glass box full of spiders and wait for you to quit shaking. You can gradually be introduced to things that bother you slightly. When you get used to one annoying thing, they raise the bar a notch, so to speak. Step by step you confront things and get used to them. It's possible to get too used to dangerous things. For instance a construction worker may slowly lose his fear of heights, and then fall to his death. What you need is a healthy fear of spiders.

In fact, I could help. :) The answrer is within you. Yes. There's a very effective treatment for phobias that unforunately, I don't remember what it's called, but talk to a psycologist, and they'll probably be able to refer you to someone who does that particular kind of therapy.
