HYPNOTHERAPY FOR WEIGHT LOSS & HEALTHY EATING – IN READING & DIDCOT
If you’ve been stuck in a cycle of dieting, losing weight, regaining it, emotional eating, or relying on willpower alone — you’re not failing. Your mindset, not your motivation, is what needs help.
I help people across Reading, Didcot, and online lose weight naturally and sustainably using hypnotherapy, NLP, and practical mindset coaching — without extreme diets, guilt, or endless restriction.
Most clients begin feeling more in control of food, cravings, and motivation within just a few sessions.

Testimonial:
“Since I saw you (January 2010) I’ve lost 2 pounds less than 2 stone, I’m slowly dissapearing thank you I’m amazed but very pleased how well it’s worked”
Mick – For weight loss March 18th 2010 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Testimonial – Laura M. (2024)”I honestly didn’t expect hypnotherapy to help this much. I came to Matthew after years of yo-yo dieting, emotional eating and feeling completely out of control around sugar. After just a couple of sessions, something shifted — the cravings dropped, I stopped overeating in the evenings, and for the first time in years I felt calm around food.
Three months on, I’m over a stone lighter, my energy is better, and I actually enjoy eating healthily now. It feels natural, not forced. I really wish I’d done this sooner.” Testimonial – Laura M. (2024) Testimonial – Laura M. London (2024) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Weight Loss FAQ
How many sessions will I need?
It varies — usually between 2–6 sessions depending on goals, habits and emotional patterns.
Will this work for me?
If you’re open-minded and ready to make healthy changes, yes.
Hypnotherapy works differently from dieting — it helps change the mindset behind eating.
Do you offer online sessions?
Yes — online sessions work extremely well.
Can hypnotherapy help with motivation?
Yes. Motivation, confidence, and consistency are all subconscious patterns that we can strengthen.
Start Taking Control of Food Again
You don’t have to keep battling cravings, emotional eating, or cycles of starting over.
Change begins the moment you decide you’re ready.
Testimonial:
It’s been 14 weeks now during which time I’ve had no chocolate at all and lost a stone in weight. I walk through supermarkets now and see chocolate and sweets and it could be any other product. I don’t feel the emotional attachment to sweets or chocolate that I once felt. My energy levels are better, my sleep is better. I have no idea how it works – but it does. Whatever it is you’re looking for help with – food issues, weight loss, anxiety or sleep problems – it’s definitely worth giving it a try. – Sarah, January 2011 (and more recently when seen in Waitrose in Wallingford in late 2013) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Testimonial – James T. (2023) “I thought my issue was motivation, but it turned out to be mindset. Matthew helped me break the cycle of binge-eating and self-sabotage, and I can’t believe the difference. I’ve lost weight steadily, I’m exercising again, and I finally feel in control instead of fighting with myself every day.
It’s been genuinely life-changing.” London and Online Testimonial – James T. (2023) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
