Aria Fraser
Hypnotherapist, Certified Rapid Transformational Therapist
Rapid Transformational Therapy is very effective at helping people with weight loss, because it approaches it from the angle that is most needed by the client. Whether that might be installing the desire for motivation to exercise, or stopping a habit of over-eating/ emotional eating, hypnotherapy is a helpful modality at finding the root cause. By looking at experiences from your past, negative beliefs are identified, specifically any that formed around weight, or a negative view of oneself. These beliefs are reframed and released in a compassionate way. New and beneficial messages are then made to the subconscious mind to help you create the changes that are needed to assist with weight reduction. A few check-ins and ongoing support will be available after the session(s).
