Elizabeth Hollywood

My name is Elizabeth and I provide face to face and online therapy. I'm a compassionate, understanding and easy going therapist. I'm a good listener and allow people time in their sessions to relax and tell their story and then I help them rewrite their future self-in a good way! 

Life is not all plain sailing we face many challenges along the way and learn as we go. But sometimes we need a bit of help when times get tough or there is a hurdle that we can't overcome.

We only have one precious life so let me help you make the most of it. Let me help you calm your anxiety, feel fitter and healthier when you lose weight, live a longer and happier life when you give up cigarettes.

Let go of the past, live now, rewrite your future.

Now here's the important part and good to know. I've trained in Clinical Hypnotherapy with Psychotherapy with the Kent Institute of Clinical Hypnosis and I'm also an Accredited Certified EFT Practitioner having trained with EFT International. I have professional memberships in APHP and EFTI. I am also training to become a counsellor.

My specialisms include weight loss including Hypno-Band (Gastric Band Hypnosis), anxiety, quit smoking, hypnoanalysis, Irritable Bowel Syndrome and fears. I also help people with chronic pain and make use of hypnosis and Emotional Freedom Techniques to help empower people to make positive changes. 

Manage Your Anxiety: Build Resilience and Confidence

I help people reduce stress and anxiety and use hypnotherapy, Emotional Freedom Techniques and other anti- anxiety tools to help you manage feelings of overwhelm, worry and negative thoughts. Many people feel they have a constant knot in their stomach while others feel in a constant panic and that their anxiety is constantly there, especially at night when they try to sleep.

Your first session with me is an initial consultation is up to 90 minutes where i will take a full history, ask about your expectations of therapy as well as your goals. Depending on time, you will experience a lovely relaxing hypnosis session and then arrange your sessions which will help to reduce your anxiety. Subsequent session are up to 50-60 minutes.

We have all suffered from stress and anxiety at some point in our lives. It is part of the human condition and a perfectly normal response to various stressors that we face in life. Many people feel that they don't have a choice but to feel anxious in certain situations but you do have a choice and there is a way to gain control over it. You were not born anxious, it has been learned over time to help you cope or avoid things. And because it has been learned, it can be unlearned. All you need is a commitment to make changes to the way you usually do react.

Emotional Freedom Techniques/Thought Field Therapy: 

Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) and Thought Field Therapy (TFT) involves tapping near the end points of energy meridians located around the body. It is a gentle therapy and helps with most emotional and physical problems such as but not limited to, anxiety, fears and phobias, physical pain, negative thoughts, beliefs and traumatic experiences. The technique was developed in the 1990s by Gary Craig and is based on the ancient Chinese Art of Acupuncture which was founded over 5000 years ago.

I use Tapping as a stand-alone therapy or sometimes as part of someone's therapy. If you aren't keen on hypnotherapy, then Tapping is just as effective. It is so easy to do that after a few sessions you will become your own expert. I have recently written an article for the Hypnotherapy Directory about EFT.

Sessions can be taken face to face, online and even by telephone.

To discuss if Tapping is for you then contact me for a free 30 minute consultation

Quit Smoking Therapy: 2 hour session at £250 

I have helped hundreds of people over the years to quit smoking. After your quit smoking therapy you will leave my therapy room feeling relieved that you have stopped smoking. As soon as you stop smoking you will benefit from improved health, smell better, feel proud of yourself, be a role model for others, including your children and save lots of money in the long term.

Because hypnotherapy is a natural way to stop smoking there is no need to use patches, gums or vapes afterwards. You will simply have no desire to smoke and you will be so glad that you have stopped a habit that was never a natural part of you in the first place.

Hypnosis works by helping your subconscious accept the wanted suggestion to stop smoking and according to New Scientist magazine 'Hypnosis is the most effective way of giving up smoking', (vol 136).

Hypnotherapy works by changing the way you think about smoking cigarettes and establishing the reasons why you want to stop. During your treatment, you will be put into a deeply relaxed hypnotic state so that your subconscious will be receptive to suggestion.

Hypnosis for quitting works best when you are committed to stopping the habit. So ask yourself this question: Am i 100% ready to become a non-smoker? If the answer is yes, then contact me for a free consultation.

It usually takes just one appointment with me to stop smoking. Please visit my website to learn about my smoking cessation package.

Hypnoanalysis:

I am trained in the use of Hypnoanalysis which is a form of hypnotherapy that aims to discover and resolve the root cause of problems in someone's present day life. During Hypnoanalysis and whilst in hypnosis, your thoughts run free, moving from one to the other without judgment or consideration. This process allows you to bring up unresolved matters, usually from your childhood years so that you can look at them from an adult perspective and hence resolve present day symptoms. Hypnoanalysis can help relieve stress, panic disorders, anxiety, phobias, poor self-esteem and weight issues. Hypnoanalysis is usually over 12 sessions but may vary from person to person. Many people worry that they won't remember much of their childhood, but they are always amazed at how much they do remember.
