* YourMindMakesItReal: In the most positive way. Rumyodin as the drug did nothing, it was the participants' belief that they could overcome their fear (and positive reinforcements) that helped.

* TheEveryman: Played straight with most of the participants; later averted by Natalie. In contrast to most of the people Derren chooses to work with, she was picked out for her scepticism and strength of mind - purely to make the process of manipulation more challenging.
* FaceYourFears: The phobia sufferers by the end of episode one.

!! ''Fear And Faith'' contains examples of:

* BarBrawl: Staged, naturally.
* DealWithTheDevil: Jokingly evoked by Derren at the start of episode two. It's a theme that runs through much of his work.
* GrievousBottleyHarm: Threatened during the brawl.
* FaceYourFears: The phobia sufferers by the end of episode one.
* LabcoatOfScienceAndMedicine: Worn by 'Professor Gladwell.' {{Justified|Trope}} because it's only there to play on the participants' notions of what a doctor should look like.
* MagicalGesture: Something remarkably close to a real life example is heavily featured in episode two.
* PerformanceAnxiety: Listed as a phobia by one of the participants, who loses all ability to sing if there's even the slightest chance she'll be overheard.
* PlaceboEffect: Tackled directly in the first episode and more vaguely in the second.
* PrimalFear: Two of the participants have a debilitating fear of heights.
* TheReveal: Episode one features an early reveal for the audience regarding the nature of Rumyodin, then a slightly less dramatic one regarding the scope of the show itself, and finally a big reveal for the participants.
** Episode two also pops out reveals so often, for both the audience and the participants, that it's impossible to take anything on face value.
* ShrinkingViolet: One of the participants begins the first episode as a reluctant example.
