Face your fear. Spend time in the dark.
But you have to be prepared to face it, I mean, you don't just go up to a bunch of Spiders if you are afraid of spiders. You should do things like start with dim lights, then dim them even more until you are okay with total darkness, then walk around your house in total darkness, then learn to do a lot of things in the darkness, then finally learn to sleep in total darkness.
And remember that noises you hear at night time are nothing unusual. They happen all day, but during the night time you are not focusing on anything else and notice things you would not normally notice during the day.
At night people think only of scary things in the dark.They see things,hear tham etc. The rason behind that is that they just think of scary things in their minds and then get scared on the slightest of noise or movememt. If you concentrate on sleep then you will forget it and sleep in a sound manner,

PS:if this does not work try remembering good things or boring things either of them would help you trust me.
A few different ways. You could use "exposure therapy", which means facing the fear head on. In this case, you could just sit in a dark room until you calm down. Another option is to slowly expose yourself to darkness. For example, walk into a dark room for a few seconds one day, then a minute the next, then five minutes, et cetra.
There are many, many methods out there. Whatever method you choose, you have to keep reminding yourself that there is nothing to fear, and everything is the same in the dark as in the light. This is because a fear of darkness is usually caused by a fear of the unknown, because darkness masks whatever is in the area, making it unknown. If you come to acknowledge that nothing changes when it becomes dark, it can help to control your phobia.
Fear is a hard thing to conquer. You have to be logical. If you face your fears and tell yourself what is logical or realistic instead, you will stop being afraid. For example, if your mind says "There's a monster in the closet," you can say "Realistically, nobody has ever found a monster in any closet in the world" or "Logically, that shadow is my raincoat, not a monster."

I am the man who walks alone And when I'm walking a dark road At night or strolling through the park When the light begins to change I sometimes feel a little strange A little anxious when it's dark Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have constant fear that something's always near Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have a phobia that someone's always there Have you run your fingers down the wall And have you felt your neck skin crawl When you're searching for the light? Sometimes when you're scared to take a look At the corner of the room You've sensed that something's watching you Have you ever been alone at night Thought you heard footsteps behind And turned around and no one's there? And as you quicken up your pace You find it hard to look again Because you're sure there's someone there Watching horror films the night before Debating witches and folklore The unknown troubles on your mind I know your mind is playing tricks You sense, and suddenly eyes fix On dancing shadows from behind Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have constant fear that something's always near Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have a phobia that someone's always there Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have constant fear that something's always near Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have a phobia that someone's always there When I'm walking a dark road I am the man who walks alone
I think Noctophobia is the fear of night, so it might be the same for dark :P
