About me
Juliet Hollingsworth – Hypnotherapist (MSc, DHP, HPD)
If you’re overwhelmed, anxious, exhausted, frightened or simply “not yourself,” you’re not alone.
Most people come to me when they’ve tried to push through, tried to be fine, tried all the usual advice… and still feel stuck.
My work is for people who are unsure why they feel this way, or unable to settle in their own skin. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, sleep issues, trauma, addictive patterns, fears or phobias, or a sense that life is running you rather than the other way round, I help you understand what your mind and body are trying to tell you.
What I help with most
🌀 Anxiety, worry and overwhelm
🌙 Sleep difficulties (insomnia, racing thoughts, restless nights)
🔥 Stress and burnout
🧩 Trauma and emotional patterns that don’t shift
🔄 Addictive behaviours (drugs, food, alcohol, phone use, anything that feels like a loop)
⚡ Fears and phobias (flying, driving, needles, animals, confined spaces, or anything that limits your life)
🌿 Feeling stuck, lost or disconnected from yourself
These are the people who tend to find me and the people I work best with.
How I work
My approach blends:
🎧 non-state hypnosis
🌬️ nervous-system awareness
🌍 evolutionary understanding (why modern life overwhelms an ancient body)
🔍 deep listening and intuitive pattern-spotting
📚 evidence-based therapeutic methods
For many clients, the relief comes first from being truly heard. Without interruption, without judgement, and without someone rushing to “fix.”
As you talk, I listen for the thread that runs through your words: the pattern, the sense, the thing underneath the noise. I reflect that back to you. Not as advice or opinion, but as the meaning already inside your story.
When we use hypnosis, it’s simple, safe, grounded and collaborative.
What sessions feel like:
Clients describe sessions with me as spacious, gentle, honest and deeply relieving.
"Always a productive session and always feel heard and supported."
"Juliet is a wonderful therapist and has helped me a great deal"
"Juliet is one of a kind in terms of time spent with her. Juliet is generous, kind and just the best when it comes to listening. I know that some talk about the dynamics of 'therapy', however, time spent with Juliet is time well spent and nothing like 'therapy'. The only way to know is to meet her and let her do her best which is authenticity and kindness in abundance."
"Thank you Juliette - what a revealing session and so much makes sense now!"
"Today I am flying to Sydney, Australia, something I could never have done before meeting Juliet. I have been scared of flying for years. Juliet through hypnotherapy has transformed me. I am still nervous but she has given me the tools to be calmer. I have flown to Canada, Berlin, Zurich and Greece and experienced some challenging flights, which have been so much better thanks to her hypnotherapy. I cannot recommend her enough."
You do not need to prepare anything or know exactly what the problem is.
You can bring the scattered pieces, and I help you see the picture they make.
We go at your pace.
We build safety first.
We follow what feels real rather than what sounds impressive.
And we personalise everything.
Most people say they leave sessions feeling:
🌿 calmer
🌤️ clearer
✨ more themselves
🌊 less overwhelmed
🧭 more able to cope with their lives
🤝 And most importantly: not alone with it anymore.
Why people choose me
Because I’m not here to rush you or perform a quick fix.
I’m here to help you understand yourself, your nervous system, your emotional patterns and your unmet needs. So you can make long-term changes that feel natural, not forced.
I’ve been a therapist for nearly 20 years. My client's stories, their courage, their humanity are what shaped me. My work grows from real people, not protocols.
I combine academic study, scientific research and intuition, but at the heart of everything is simple:
I listen deeply. I see patterns. I help you understand yourself.

info Information about health conditions (*)
Hypnotherapy can enhance the well-being of individuals diagnosed with serious medical conditions, but should not take the place of medical treatment and advice. If you have been diagnosed with - or suspect you may have - any of these conditions, please speak to your doctor before starting hypnotherapy.
