Why consider hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy works by resetting the automatic patterns and associations we form in our subconscious mind. They are learned patterns, just like riding a bike or driving a car, that become automatic to you. You don't have to think about how to do them, you just do them from your subconscious mind. For many people, smoking has been tied to things like stress, relaxation or socialising. Hypnotherapy helps to reset these connections, replacing them with healthier thoughts and behaviours.
Some key benefits of hypnosis include:
Less reliance on willpower
It’s not about forcing yourself to quit, hypnosis changes the subconscious patterns by which you have automatically smoked without thinking about it.
Cravings under control
Your thoughts create physical sensations in your body, just as your physical sensations give you thoughts in your mind. Hypnosis helps to change these patterns, giving the part of you that has wanted to smoke some new options for healthier behaviours. Hypnotherapy works really well for reducing cravings. Some people just never want a cigarette again, just like that, and for others it is a combination of the hypnosis and having a good understanding of the reasons why life is better without the tobacco.
Sustainable results
It can work just like that. You just never want another cigarette again. We will go over your reasons for wanting to make this change. You do have some very good ones, which probably include the devastation that failing health and worse would have on those who love you.
No weight gain
This is often a concern, especially for women. While you are in hypnosis, your subconscious mind will receive the suggestions about feeling calm and feeling healthy, with no need for any kind of substitute. It can work just like that! Back on track to enjoying your favourite activities and hobbies with more energy.

Todacitan® is the medication prescribed by doctors in the national health service in Spain to stop smoking. As a hypnotherapist, I don't offer advice on whether or not to take it, although I can work with you if you should decide to do so. This is a personal choice for you to be made together with your health care provider and I am neither for nor against the use of it. Further information...
Is hypnosis effective for stopping smoking?
There’s growing academic evidence to back up the effectiveness of hypnotherapy for quitting smoking, hundreds of studies have been published. For me, the real evidence is in testimonials from dozens of clients who have stopped smoking permanently. I'm in contact with them years later and they never looked back.
I can't say that 100% of them stop. The ones that don't make it are usually those whose loved ones have 'told' them they must come to see me. They don't want to be there for themselves, they are doing it for someone else. If this is you, a session prior to your stop smoking session may be beneficial to evaluate the choices you are making and to give you the confidence to decide whether now is a good time to do this for yourself.
What happens during hypnotherapy?
There are two parts to a hypnotherapy session for smoking cessation, just one session is required and it takes about two hours. After all, there are two parts to your mind, the conscious mind and the subconscious mind, both of which need to work together to achieve what you wish to achieve.
In the first part, we will look at the reasons why you want to quit smoking. You have some very good ones - for example, those you love and who love you, your health and fitness to enjoy the things you love to do in your life. We will bring those messages to the forefront of your mind, so that they become more powerful than the cravings, which will increasingly fade as your certainty about your good choice strengthens over the coming days, weeks, months and years until the cravings you once had become an increasingly distant memory.
We will reframe the way you think about smoking. For example, imagining the benefits of quitting – like breathing more easily, having more energy and feeling proud of taking control. We'll also address the associations you have with smoking so that you can replace them with healthier, more positive choices.
The next part of the session is when you go into hypnosis. It is probably not what you think it is, as there are many myths and misconceptions about hypnosis. You are very much aware and in control. It is always your choice to go into hypnosis. We simply quieten that busy thinking mind a little (the so-called conscious mind), so that you are free to daydream, where we give subconscious suggestions to reinforce everything we have discussed and the positive change you wish to make.
For some people, they just can't believe how easy it was. They just get on with their life and never want a cigarette again. Just like that. I want this for every client with all of my heart, and I make every session totally personalised to each unique person to make it as easy as possible for them.
This is a very small explanation, we will go into great detail about it in our session. If you have a question, ask me personally, I love to talk to people about hypnosis and answer all the questions they can think of.
