Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does hypnotherapy help with emotional eating?


Hypnotherapy works by accessing your subconscious mind, where emotional eating patterns are stored. Through guided hypnosis, we reprogram these habits so that you no longer feel the urge to eat in response to stress, anxiety, or emotions. Instead, you develop healthier coping mechanisms and feel more in control of your food choices.


2. Can hypnosis really stop cravings and overeating?


Yes! Hypnosis helps reduce cravings for unhealthy comfort foods by changing how your mind associates food with emotions. Instead of automatically reaching for food when you feel stressed or overwhelmed, hypnosis helps you naturally turn to healthier ways of managing emotions.


3. Will I be asleep or unconscious during hypnosis?


No, hypnosis is a deeply relaxed but focused state—similar to being absorbed in a book or a movie. You remain fully aware and in control at all times. Hypnotherapy simply helps your mind become more open to positive change.


4. How many sessions will I need to stop emotional eating?


The number of sessions varies for each person, but clients experience noticeable improvements within 2 -3 sessions. Most notice changes after the very first session! The goal is to create lasting changes, not just temporary fixes.


5. Is hypnotherapy safe?


Yes, hypnotherapy is completely safe when conducted by a trained professional. It is a natural, drug-free method that works by helping your mind develop healthier habits and responses to stress.


6. What if I’ve tried diets before and nothing has worked?


Diets focus on what you eat, but hypnotherapy addresses why you eat. Emotional eating is driven by subconscious habits, which is why willpower alone doesn’t work. Hypnotherapy helps break these deep-rooted patterns so that you no longer feel controlled by food.


7. Can hypnotherapy help with binge eating or nighttime snacking?


Yes! Many clients struggle with binge eating, late-night cravings, or mindless snacking. Hypnosis helps reduce compulsive urges and replace them with healthier behaviors so you feel in control of your eating habits at all times.


8. Who is hypnotherapy for?


Hypnotherapy is perfect for anyone who:

✔️ Struggles with emotional or stress eating

✔️ Wants to feel in control of their eating habits

✔️ Experiences cravings for sugary or high-carb foods

✔️ Has tried diets but still find themselves overeating when stressed

✔️ Is ready to make lasting changes without guilt or restriction


9. What happens during a hypnotherapy session?


Each session is tailored to you. We have a conversation where I'll ask you questions that enable us to work on identifying and reprogramming the subconscious triggers that lead to emotional eating. You’ll leave each session feeling calmer, more in control, and empowered in your relationship with food.
