Can hypnotherapy help with weight loss?

What happens during a first hypnotherapy session?
Your initial consultation includes a comprehensive assessment of your goals followed by a tailored hypnotherapy session. We'll discuss your history, create personalized treatment strategies, and begin the subconscious reprogramming process in a single 60-90 minute appointment.

My experience with Gillian has been truly amazing. I booked 4 sessions in a block and wouldnt hesitate to book again. I had never tried hypnotherapy before and was pleasantly surprised at how much it has helped me with my issues. Gillian is 100% professional and has you feeling relaxed as soon as you enter the room. I would highly recommend Gillian and will definitely book more sessions in the future. Truly brilliant and lovely human.

I came to Gillian because I had gained 1and a half stone during the 2nd lockdown. I had tried for months but couldnt break my bad habits. I felt heavy and down that I couldnt fit into any of my clothes. After 6 weeks of seeing Gillian Ive lost a stone and 3 inches on my waist. I am in control of my eating and dont eat after 7pm in the evening. She also help me put a toxic relationship that was holding me back behind me. During lockdown I had got into the habit of weekday dinking in the evening which I have reduced and now keep it to weekends. Gillian is completely gifted and has not

I came to Gillian 3 years ago about my anger managment and patience level issues and how it was effecting my relationship. I have had several counselling session and nothing honestly helped me when I was in the situation, I never would remember all the different techniques that I was taught but hand on heart I felt like a changed person after my second session with Gillian. I really enjoy and look forward to my sessions with her and I feel so positive and happy after my sessions. Since then Gillian has helped me and alot of my friends and family members with quit smoking, anxiety and weight managment

I went to see Gillian to discuss food relationship issues I had for many years and not really knowing what a hypnotherapist could do. We had an initial phone discussion to understand a bit better my issue and it turned out it was the relationship with myself we needed to repair. I've never been to a hypnotherapy so I didn't know what to expect and was quite nervous during my 1st appointment. I shared this with Gillian and she was very understanding and reassuring. While we work on my issue and relationship with food, I felt more and more comfortable and definitely experienced shift as the weeks
