Smoking Cessation
Smoking is looking increasingly old fashioned. What was once a fashionable even desirable look is no longer. Cigarettes are highly addictive, there is no debate about that; however the addiction can be successfully overcome.

As someone who has worked in the field of addictions I recognise the impulses and emotional triggers that can maintain the smoking trap. By looking at each individuals triggers and emotional attachment to cigarettes a bespoke plan can me made to suit each person.

I use a unique blend of addiction counselling a gentle Hypnotherapy to address this in two sessions. The first entails a detailed case history and counselling, aiming to really understand what keeps the person in the addictive cycle. At the end of the session the client is given a motivational CD. The client may smoke between sessions. The second appointment is one week later when the Hypnotherapy is given and the client walks away a non smoker.
