# Choose Freedom - Hypnotherapy With Sue

Susan Prabhu is a clinical hypnotherapist and eating psychology coach based in Portsmouth, specialising in weight loss and food-related challenges. Her practice uses evidence-based hypnotherapy combined with cognitive behavioural therapy principles to help clients understand and overcome the psychological barriers preventing sustainable weight management.

The business serves individuals who have struggled with traditional diets and yo-yo weight cycling, offering an alternative to restrictive eating plans and bariatric surgery. Clients typically seek help for weight loss, emotional eating, sugar and chocolate cravings, and weight-related anxiety or low self-esteem.

What distinguishes Choose Freedom is Sue's creator-led approach—she's developed The Hypnotic Gastric Band Programme, a comprehensive four-month intervention that identifies root causes of weight issues before hypnotically simulating gastric band surgery. This goes beyond generic weight loss work by addressing the psychological foundations of eating behaviour. Every session includes bespoke hypnotic recordings tailored to individual clients, designed to embed changes at a subconscious level.

Sue holds multiple qualifications including clinical hypnotherapy certification from the Marissa Peer School, an advanced CBT diploma, and specialist training in gastric band hypnotherapy. Rather than pushing clients toward expensive or invasive procedures, she empowers them to reshape their relationship with food and themselves through their own subconscious resources.
