Clinical Hypnotherapist: Elizabeth Knights-Trench
Despite Hypnotherapy being classed as ‘alternative’ therapy, I’ve never once seen it like this. I see how quickly Hypnotherapy shifts thoughts and beliefs and how it can rework painful memories. A friend described hypnotherapy as ‘finding out who you are under who you became’. Guiding people through that process is an honour and privilege.
WHAT IS HYPNOTHERAPY?
THE BEST THERAPIST…. for you
Having found my website, you are probably wondering how Brixton Hypnotherapy can help you, and whether I am the right therapist for you, and if the training, expertise, tools and techniques I use will help resolve your issues.
My view of therapy is, it isn’t just the qualifications and courses someone’s done, but whether they are the kind of person you want to work with. Are they the kind of person you feel comfortable opening up to and being honest with? In this video I address a few things about myself and what I’m like as a therapist to help you decide if I’m the best therapist for you.
“Hypnosis in therapy is gentle, relaxing and incredibly effective.”
Hypnotherapy is a forward-focussed and short-term process, normally lasting for 4 to 10 sessions.
Most of my sessions are now on Zoom but I also see people in person at the clinic in Brixton and (on Fridays) in Harley Street.
I am trained to an advanced level in Clinical, Medical and Psycho-dynamic therapies, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Neuro Linguistic (NLP), Regression and Internal Family Systems (IFS) as well as Solution-focussed, Ericksonian and medical hypnosis. I have done several courses in body-work, Polyvagal Theory and Family constellations. My style of working is to use my skills, experience and instinct. I combine in whichever way I think will encourage change.

TESTIMONIALS
This is an email I received from a client of mine, a GP, after five sessions, who I helped guide through a phobia.
Amy had four sessions with me and I saw her transform in so many ways.
Over eight sessions, my client transformed into a happier version of herself. Incredible to witness and an honour to work with.
This is an extract from an email I received from a recent client. She suffered panic attacks on a regular basis.
Karen has four gorgeous boys – and paid them £2 to go off and give her 30 mins to try hypnotherapy with me! She said I could film her ‘before’ and ‘after’ – this is ‘after’.
A full-time teacher, a busy mum and no family in London to help out; Salome talks to me after a 30 min session of hypnotherapy about the process.
