Hypnotherapy for Weight Loss While Using Ozempic or Mounjaro
Use GLP-1 medication to quiet appetite and hypnotherapy to change your relationship with food for the long term.
Ozempic, Mounjaro, and other GLP-1 medications are changing the landscape of weight loss. They reduce appetite and food noise, often dramatically. But many people using these medications worry about the same thing:
What happens when I stop?
Hypnotherapy can help you use the window created by GLP-1 medication to address emotional eating, habits, and long-standing patterns — so weight loss isn’t dependent on medication alone.
Can hypnotherapy help while using Ozempic or Mounjaro?
Yes, and often more effectively than before. GLP-1 medications reduce hunger and compulsive thoughts about food. This creates mental and emotional space that many people have never experienced.
Hypnotherapy works best in this space.
Rather than fighting cravings, sessions focus on:
Emotional eating patterns
Stress-related eating
Habitual behaviours around food
Identity and self-regulation
Preparing psychologically for life after medication
This is not about replacing medication, it’s about making its effects last.
Why weight regain often happens after stopping GLP-1 medication
Many people regain weight after stopping Ozempic or Mounjaro, not because they lack willpower, but because:
Emotional drivers were never addressed
Eating habits were externally controlled by medication
Stress and self-soothing patterns remained unchanged
Hypnotherapy helps work on these underlying drivers while appetite is quieter, reducing the risk of rebound weight gain later.
What hypnotherapy focuses on during GLP-1 treatment
Sessions are tailored, but often include:
Reducing emotional reliance on food
Rebuilding trust in hunger and satiety signals
Breaking automatic eating behaviours
Managing stress without eating
Future pacing confidence without medication
Reducing anxiety about weight regain

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to be taking Ozempic or Mounjaro to start hypnotherapy?
No. Some clients are already using a GLP-1 medication, while others are considering it or planning ahead. Hypnotherapy can begin at any stage and is designed to complement, not replace, medical treatment.
Will hypnotherapy help me come off Ozempic or Mounjaro?
Hypnotherapy does not replace medication or medical advice. However, it can help address emotional eating, habits, and stress-related patterns that often make stopping medication difficult. Any decision about reducing or stopping medication should be made with your prescribing clinician.
Is this about weight loss or emotional eating?
Both because for many people, they are closely linked. While GLP-1 medication reduces appetite, hypnotherapy focuses on the emotional, habitual, and psychological drivers around food that medication alone does not address.
Is hypnotherapy safe to use alongside GLP-1 medication?
Yes. Hypnotherapy is a complementary, non-medical approach and is safe to use alongside prescribed GLP-1 medications such as Ozempic or Mounjaro. It does not interfere with medication or medical treatment.
How many sessions are usually needed?
Most people benefit from a short, focused course of 4–6 sessions. The exact number depends on your goals, your relationship with food, and whether you are currently using medication.
Want to use Ozempic or Mounjaro wisely & not indefinitely?
If you’re using GLP-1 medication and want support addressing emotional eating and long-term habits, hypnotherapy may help.
