BARIATRIC PATIENTS
According to a scientific article in the US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health, approximately 50% of bariatric patients experienced weight regain after 24 months of surgery. If you struggle with obesity, hypnotherapy can be a valuable tool as overeating is a psychological issue and must be treated as such.
A large percentage of bariatric patients gain weight post surgery because 90% of automatic behaviors like emotional eating are triggered by subconscious programming. While most post-op recovery plans stress the importance of managing food intake, this is a complex issue. Stress, relationships, fears, habits, self esteem, and familiar associations to food and comfort play a major role and must be addressed for long term change.
Every habit of action is run by a habit of thought. Incorporating hypnotherapy into your recovery plan can create new positive thoughts and behaviors around your response to food, self-image, and overall self care.
Food Intake
Bariatric surgical procedures cause weight loss by restricting the amount of food the stomach can hold. If you are an emotional eater this can cause severe health complications as the stomach can no longer accommodate large quantities of food post surgery. Hypnotherapy can play a vital role in supporting the ability to follow nutritional guidelines for a healthy recovery process.

Internal Cues
Paula, 16 New York, NY
My mom signed me up for a session with Gabriella on Zoom and I loved it! I’ve lost 12 pounds so far! This works!
Anne, 35 Los Angeles, Ca.
I was considering a gastric bypass surgery when a good friend suggested that I have a consultation with Gabriella before making any major decisions about surgery. After 2 appointments I feel like a different person. I don’t overeat when I am stressed out at work anymore and somehow my sugar cravings are gone!
Darby, 32 Encinitas , Ca.
I can not say enough about the incredible impact that Gabriella’s work has had on my life. I have tried hypnotherapy before and had zero benefits. I was blown away by Gabriella’s comprehensive approach. I felt so safe, heard, and respected. Since our session I have felt so much confidence, almost zero cravings, and a freedom I have only dreamed of. I would highly recommend Gabriella to any woman looking to overcome struggle, addiction, and self-image issues.

Megan, 42 San Diego, Ca.
I went to see Gabriella to address some long-standing body image and emotional eating issues. She expertly walked me through some memories in a way that gave me a totally new insight into my issues. It was a relaxing and safe environment. I have been able to go on a date, wear a swimsuit at the beach and embrace my femininity in a way I was unable to do before our session. I have also been making healthy food at home and my food cravings are totally gone.
