I’m Holly Stone — an award-winning Solution Focused Clinical Hypnotherapist, Food Freedom Coach with a deep passion for helping people heal their relationship with food, their body, and themselves.

If you’re tired of structuring your day around eating, chasing the “right” number on the scales, or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, you’re in the right place.

I don’t believe in restriction — I believe in authentic control, capacity, compassion, and change.
Together, we’ll uncover what’s possible for you, gently shifting the patterns that keep you stuck so you can experience real food freedom, lasting peace, and a more empowered connection to your body.

🌿 The PEACE Programme

A gentle, powerful reset for your mind, body, confidence, and relationship with food.

You’ve spent years carrying responsibility — for family, work, and everyone who depends on you.
In the process, your own wellbeing slid to the back of the queue, and now:

• Your sleep is unsettled

• Your energy rises and crashes

• Stress feels heavier than it used to

• Food has become a source of comfort and frustration

• Your changing body feels unfamiliar

• You’re tired of the relentless mental pressure

The PEACE Programme helps you finally exhale.

It gives you structure without restriction, nourishment without guilt, and clarity without overwhelm.
It guides you back to the calm, confident version of yourself that’s been waiting underneath the noise.

This is where peace with food, your body, and your daily rhythm becomes your new normal.

Built Around the P.E.A.C.E. Method

12 weeks of tailored support to help overextended, overthinking adults finally end the exhausting cycle of food guilt and control, and feel calm, confident, and fully at home in their body again.

Beyond my work, I’m also a mum to a recovering anorexic, and a woman navigating menopause — with all the changes, emotions, and body image challenges that brings. I understand first-hand how scary and isolating it can feel to care for someone with an eating disorder, especially while managing your own wellbeing. Not to mention the feelings of failure that you personally experience in later life when bodies change and old behaviours around food no longer result in positive results. We feel stuck, exhausted, and obsessive in our thinking.

That’s why I’m passionate about supporting you towards a more positive relationship with food.

I know that life can feel complicated — especially when talk of food, weight, or body size is off-limits, yet always in the background. Solution Focused Hypnotherapy continues to help me navigate the ups and downs of both menopause and motherhood, focusing on calm, balance, and self-compassion.

If you’re a parent, carer, or simply someone seeking change, know that you’re not alone. Together, we can work towards a future filled with hope, strength, and freedom. You matter and you need to be ok.

I use modern, evidence based approaches that support positive change including Coaching, NLP, Psychotherapy and Solution Focused Hypnotherapy.  I have worked as a Solution Focused Hypnotherapist for many years and have my own teaching school in Hampshire CPHT Hampshire. However, it was a blog that I wrote about my own experience of living with Anorexia that stemmed my interest in specialising in relationships with food. I have subsequently trained with The National Centre for Eating Disorders and  hold the Master Practitioner, Excellence in Practitioner Skills for Eating Disorders Diploma and Advanced Diploma in Eating Disorders and Obesity. This has allowed me to broaden my offering to those who are struggling.

Weight Management and a desire, or need, to lose weight can be supported. I do not offer a “quick fix” as this in 99% of the population does not last. Supporting effective lasting weight loss is the key to improved health. A commitment and desire to change are needed as the path is often not linear. Unhealthy body sizes are often not solved through food alone although nourishment and physiology create the foundation for lasting change. There are many other considerations that need to  be addressed for heathy weight to be achieved and we will explore these together to create an environment that is supportive of good heath. Working towards a happier healthier future for you.

Disordered Eating is only a problem if it is effecting your health and ability to function normally. This can include eating for reasons other than nourishment or hunger, eating to deal with stress or difficult emotions, cutting calories or restricting food groups or punishing yourself for eating “bad” foods to name a few.  The result is that you are often unhappy and unable to live your life freely. 

Eating Disorders often start as a best friend. They come into our lives at a time of crisis when we are vulnerable and feel out of control and offer us the control and safety that we are lacking. They then start to isolate us from the things and people in our lives that we should be able to rely on. Pushing away from loved ones, isolating from friends and stopping us being able to do the things that used to bring us joy. So, the friend who used to make us feel great becomes a friend who controls us and prevents us from being happy. In fact, they become responsible for more crisis and distress, telling us false truths and being mean and bullying. Being able to separate ourselves from the illness and seeing it as a third party can be a significant and important first step.

It must start with working to gain weight and my skill set lies in supporting those who are weight restored but still battling with anxiety and negative and limiting beliefs around food and body image. For support with weight restoration I would refer you to your GP in the first instance and The National Centre for Eating Disorders and Beat Charity will be able to offer more support with this. If you are concerned in any way for yourself or a loved one I will be very happy to offer guidance.

Together we find the way forward that frees you from your “friend’s” control through understanding and re-educating them and ourselves. I recognise that you will know your “friend” best and will also know your best solution to free yourself from their control. It is a collaborative process where we work to remove the problem sticker that has been placed on your ED.  We can then remove any false truths and mis information associated with food and work towards your happier healthier future.

If you are stuck and struggling with anxieties and fear around food then please do get in touch and we can discuss how I think that I may be able to help. Often (especially where malnourishment is concerned) I like to work as part of a supporting team. The priority has to be to re feed and nourish the body and brain.
