Doesnt phobia treatment usually involve some sort of exposure therapy? Call me crazy, but making the name a palindrome itself seems like a clever part of the treatment, as even discussing the phobia would help provide exposure, and work towards a cure. (Assuming it's a real thing...)

No one's actually afraid of palindromes, it's a joke phobia.

There are 8 billion people on this planet. At least one of them has to have had a traumatic experience while listening to Bob.

Actually, it's called iocusphobia, the fear of joke phobias.
