Many people who come to us say:
“I hate the habit.”

Hypnotherapy can help people stop smoking or vaping by changing the unconscious beliefs, triggers and habits that drive the urge. Most clients quit in 1–2 sessions and feel calmer, more in control and free from cravings.
Stopping smoking is not about willpower, it’s about shifting the unconscious association that ties cigarettes or vapes to:
stress relief
boredom
comfort
routine
identity
emotional escape
habit loops
When those unconscious patterns change, quitting becomes dramatically easier.
From Chris’s client insights:
Most smokers/vapers aren’t weak, they are...
✔ Using cigarettes to manage stress
A cigarette or vape feels like a “pause button.”
✔ Stuck in automatic habits
Your brain fires the behaviour before you even think.
✔ Attached to the emotional role of smoking
Reward, escape, break, comfort, relief.
✔ Worried they can’t cope without it
This is one of the biggest fears clients mention.
✔ Afraid of failure or gaining weight
Or of feeling “on edge” without a cigarette.
Hypnotherapy helps eliminate the emotional attachment and replaces it with calm control.
Chris uses a tailored, powerful combination of:
✔ Clinical hypnotherapy
To change unconscious patterns and cravings.
✔ Parts Therapy
To resolve internal conflict (“part of me wants to quit, part of me doesn’t”).
✔ NLP
To weaken triggers and break associations.
✔ Faster EFT
To reduce stress responses that drive the urge to smoke or vape.
✔ Self-hypnosis & support recordings
To reinforce calm, control and confidence.
Clients describe it as:
“Like my brain just switched off the urge.”
Most clients need:
✔1 session for smoking
✔1–2 sessions for vaping
(especially high-nicotine disposable vapes)
Chris will discuss the best plan for you during your free informal chat.

Many clients now say:
“Vaping is harder than smoking ever was.”
“I can’t stop picking it up.”
“I vape constantly without thinking.”
This is because vapes are:
more frequent (no end to a “vape session”)
more accessible
often higher nicotine
socially invisible
emotionally tied to scrolling, boredom and stress
Hypnotherapy addresses the unconscious compulsions that make vaping so addictive, especially for parents who don’t want to model vaping to their kids.
Stuart – Smoking for over 50 years (Quit in 2 sessions)
Stuart’s partner wrote afterwards thanking Chris for “changing their lives.”
He was spending £90 a week on tobacco and struggling with his breathing.
Two sessions later, he was smoke-free and confident.
If you smoke a pack a day or vape heavily, quitting can save:
£70–£150 per week
£300–£600 per month
£3,600–£7,200 per year
Hypnotherapy is normally cheaper than two weeks of smoking/vaping.

Will I really stop in one session?
Many do. Chris will recommend the ideal number for your situation.
Will I gain weight?
Hypnosis helps prevent replacing nicotine with food.
Can I be hypnotised?
Yes. Hypnosis is a state of focused relaxation, not losing control.
What if I’ve tried hypnosis before and it didn’t work?
Chris combines several methods, not old-style script hypnosis.
This helps people even when previous attempts failed.
Will I have withdrawal symptoms?
Most clients report very mild or no withdrawal due to reduced craving.
Is it safe if I have health issues?
Yes, hypnosis is gentle, safe and non-invasive.
Do online sessions work?
Absolutely, and many smokers/vapers prefer the convenience.
