Gabriela Jacovino Hypnosis
Weight Loss Clinic in Chicago, Illinois
About Gabriela Jacovino Hypnosis
Gabriela Jacovino Hypnosis offers a unique, mind-based approach to weight loss that addresses the psychological and emotional factors behind eating behaviors. As a certified hypnotherapist with years of experience, Gabriela understands that lasting weight loss starts in the mind. Her programs focus on changing the subconscious patterns and beliefs that drive unhealthy eating habits, creating sustainable changes from the inside out.
Unlike traditional diet programs that focus solely on what you eat, hypnotherapy for weight loss works by reprogramming your relationship with food at the subconscious level. Many clients discover that their eating habits are tied to stress, emotions, childhood experiences, or deep-seated beliefs about themselves. Through specialized hypnosis techniques, Gabriela helps clients overcome these underlying issues while building new, healthier associations with food and eating.
Services Offered
Gabriela's weight loss hypnotherapy program includes individual hypnosis sessions, customized audio recordings for home use, and complementary coaching support. Each session combines deep relaxation techniques with targeted suggestions designed to modify eating behaviors, reduce cravings, and increase motivation for healthy choices. The program addresses common issues like emotional eating, portion control, sugar addiction, and self-sabotage patterns. Beyond direct weight loss hypnosis, Gabriela also works on related issues that can impact weight management including stress reduction, sleep improvement, and confidence building. She creates personalized hypnosis recordings that clients can use between sessions to reinforce positive changes. The program also includes practical guidance on mindful eating techniques, stress management strategies, and building sustainable habits that support long-term weight maintenance.

What to Expect
Your hypnotherapy journey begins with a comprehensive consultation where Gabriela assesses your weight loss history, eating patterns, stress levels, and underlying beliefs about food and body image. She'll identify the specific subconscious patterns that may be sabotaging your efforts and explain how hypnosis can help address these issues. Together, you'll set clear, realistic goals and create a customized treatment plan.
Typical programs include 6-10 individual hypnosis sessions over 3-4 months, with each session lasting about 90 minutes. During sessions, you'll experience deep relaxation while receiving positive suggestions tailored to your specific needs. Gabriela also provides custom audio recordings to use at home, reinforcing the work done in sessions and helping maintain progress between appointments.
Why Choose Gabriela Jacovino Hypnosis
What makes Gabriela's approach unique is her focus on the mental and emotional aspects of weight loss that other programs often ignore. While diets tell you what to eat, hypnosis changes how you think and feel about food at a subconscious level. This creates lasting change because you're not relying on willpower alone - you're actually rewiring the automatic thoughts and behaviors that drive your eating habits.
Gabriela's clients appreciate her compassionate, non-judgmental approach and her deep understanding of the psychological challenges involved in weight loss. Many have tried multiple diets and programs before finding success with hypnotherapy. The high rating and positive reviews reflect the genuine transformation clients experience not just in their weight, but in their overall relationship with food and their bodies.

Her popular 8-session weight loss program is $1,200 (compared to $1,400 if purchased individually) and includes custom audio recordings and email support between sessions.

First-Time Patient Tips
Before your first hypnosis session, it's helpful to think about your weight loss goals, previous diet experiences, and any patterns you've noticed in your eating behaviors. Come prepared to discuss emotional triggers, stress factors, and situations where you tend to make unhealthy food choices. There's no need to be nervous - hypnosis is simply a state of focused relaxation where you remain aware and in control.
Wear comfortable clothes and avoid caffeine before your appointment. Be ready to be honest about your challenges and open to exploring the psychological factors behind your eating habits. Many clients are surprised to discover connections they hadn't noticed before between their emotions, stress levels, and food choices.
