Perhaps smoking has been part of your life for years. It might be what you reach for when you are stressed, having a break or spending time with friends. You want to stop, but the thought of giving it up feels difficult.
You might light up without thinking, promise yourself this will be the last packet, or worry about how you will cope without cigarettes.
You don’t have to work through this alone.
I understand from personal experience
I have been a smoker myself, so I understand how easily smoking can become woven into everyday life. I know the feeling of wanting to change while still being drawn back to the habit.
I bring that personal understanding to our work together, with a warm, practical approach and no judgement. You can speak openly about what you find difficult and what you want to change.
A practical plan for life without smoking
We look at when you smoke, what sets it off and what you feel it does for you. Together, we develop simple alternatives that fit your routine, including those moments when you need a break or feel stressed.
The program has three areas of focus:
-
Create your plan. Identify your triggers, such as your morning coffee, driving or socialising, and choose practical ways to respond without smoking.
-
Prepare for the change. Plan for the early days and discuss how to access additional help with nicotine withdrawal if needed.
-
Build your picture of a smoke-free life. Use hypnotherapy and guided imagery to connect with your reasons for stopping and rehearse everyday situations without cigarettes.
-

Common questions
What if I have tried to quit before?
You are welcome to get in touch. Previous attempts can help us understand what was difficult and what support you need this time.
Will I stay in control during hypnosis?
Yes. Hypnosis is a collaborative process. You can speak, ask questions or stop at any time.
What if I need more help after my first session?
Your program includes 12 months of follow-up calls, SMS support and top-up sessions to help you work towards quitting and maintaining that change.
What if I stop and later start smoking again?
If you successfully stop smoking and later return to smoking, a new program is required. Restarting the program is separate from the follow-up support included in your original program.
