Are you feeling frustrated, self-conscious, or stuck in a cycle of yo-yo dieting and unhealthy habits? I specialise in helping individuals overcome their struggles with weight loss, whether it’s linked to emotional eating, lack of motivation, or deep-seated self-image issues. Many clients come to me after trying various diets and fitness plans, only to find themselves stuck in a pattern of losing and regaining weight. Together, we can explore a fresh, empowering approach to achieving sustainable weight loss, so you can feel healthier, more confident, and in control of your body.
I use an intuitive blend of hypnotherapy, NLP, coaching, and other psychological and somatic techniques to teach you the tools to manage cravings and emotional eating when they arise, and also to resolve your weight-related challenges at the root subconscious level.
* I create a bespoke plan tailored to your unique circumstances
* Teach you tools to change your eating habits
*Dive deep into the subconscious to understand your unique triggers and behaviours around over eating and exercise
*Provide a safe and non-judgemental space for you to talk and be heard
*Improve your own internal dialogue about your body image
*Show you that change is always possible

Hello, my name is Victoria. I am a Cognitive Hypnotherapist and Coach with more than 13 years’ experience helping people to live the lives they’d love to live. Get in touch to find out more or book an online hypnotherapy appointment, or face-to-face in my comfortable clinic in Colchester, Essex.

Hypnotherapy, NLP and coaching for sustainable weight loss
Hypnotherapy, NLP, and coaching are powerful tools for achieving lasting weight loss, helping you break free from the patterns that keep you feeling stuck, frustrated, or out of control with your eating habits.
By working with the subconscious mind, I help you using:
Hypnotherapy to reframe the way you respond to food, cravings, and emotional eating, making it easier to make healthier choices and develop a positive relationship with food.
NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) techniques to shift negative thought patterns around body image and self-discipline, empowering you to take control of your mindset and build sustainable habits for weight management.
Coaching to add an additional layer of support, guiding you to set realistic goals, stay motivated, and create actionable strategies for reaching your desired weight and maintaining it long-term.
Along with the other psychological and somatic tools in my kit, I create a bespoke plan that provides a holistic pathway to not just losing weight, but transforming your lifestyle, allowing you to feel healthier, more confident, and in alignment with your wellness goals.
Other tools:
- Meditation and mindfulness
- Breathwork
- Emotional Freedom Technique
- Eye Movement Reprocessing (e.g. EMDR)

5 Signs You Might Benefit from Hypnotherapy for Weight Loss
- Emotional Eating
You find yourself turning to food for comfort when feeling stressed, anxious, or upset, rather than eating out of physical hunger. - Struggling with Cravings
You experience intense cravings for unhealthy foods that feel impossible to resist, even when you’re not hungry. - Yo-Yo Dieting
You’ve tried multiple diets and weight loss programs, only to regain the weight shortly after, feeling stuck in a cycle of losing and gaining. - Negative Self-Image
You struggle with low self-esteem and negative thoughts about your body, which impact your motivation to stick to a healthy lifestyle. - Lack of Motivation and Consistency
You have trouble staying committed to your weight loss goals, often losing motivation shortly after starting a new diet or exercise routine.
