Vaping Hypnotherapy
Hello, I'm Susannah. I am a fully qualified clinical hypnotherapist with over 22 years of experience helping people quit vaping and other nicotine habits.

Many people fall into vaping as a substitute for smoking, believing it’s a safer alternative. Some people have never smoked but try vaping out of curiosity or to deal with stress, boredom or anxiety. Because it is so much easier to vape indoors, it can quickly become an addictive habit.
My quit vaping hypnosis programme works with your subconscious mind to rewire your neural pathways and eliminate cravings completely. One targeted session is often all that’s required, and you will receive your own personalised recording to promote long-term success.
If you would like to learn more about hypnotherapy to quit vaping or any other nicotine product, please get in touch.

Quit Vaping Hypnosis Programme
Your stop vaping hypnotherapy session follows a two-step process, designed to help you quit vaping for good.
Step 1
We’ll start by discussing your vaping habit, when and why you vape, your triggers, and what has motivated you to quit. This gives me insight into your situation and why now is the right time for you to make this change.
Step 2
I’ll use the information we’ve gathered to guide you into a relaxed state of hypnosis, working to shift the subconscious thoughts, associations and beliefs that have kept you vaping. The aim is for you to leave the session feeling calm, in control, and free from the need to vape.
For most people whose vaping is straightforward and purely habitual, one session is usually enough to stop. If you feel you need further support, follow-up sessions are available. These can be used to reinforce the hypnosis or address any underlying issues, such as stress or anxiety, which can sometimes need additional attention for long-term success.

Please note that if you use vaping as a way to cope with stress, anxiety or difficult emotions, I would advise we work on this first, as there may be subconscious resistance to letting go of it.
You’ll also receive a personalised MP3 recording of your session to reinforce the positive changes and support your long-term success.

- Build confidence in your ability to stay vape-free
Why Vaping Becomes So Addictive
Vaping delivers nicotine directly to your brain, triggering the release of dopamine and creating a temporary feeling of calm or satisfaction. Over time, your brain adapts to regular nicotine hits and starts to expect them. When you don’t vape, you may feel irritable, restless, anxious or unable to concentrate – this is your brain telling you it wants more nicotine.
Because vaping is so easy and convenient, it’s possible to consume far more nicotine than you ever would with cigarettes. There’s no need to go outside, no smell, no ash. You can vape at your desk, on the sofa, even in bed. This ease of access means the habit can quickly become constant.
The addiction isn’t just chemical. Vaping is also linked to certain situations, emotions, and times of day. You might vape first thing in the morning, with your coffee, during work breaks, when you’re stressed or when you’re bored. These associations get stored in your subconscious mind and become triggers that keep the habit going.

This is why patches, gum, or simply deciding to quit rarely works long-term. They might take the edge off the nicotine craving, but they don’t change the subconscious habits and associations. Your brain still expects to vape in those situations, so you continue to experience psychological cravings.
Quit vaping hypnosis works because it addresses both sides of the addiction. We work with the subconscious to rewire these responses at a neurological level, which makes quitting so much easier.
The Health Risks of Vaping
Vaping was marketed as a safer alternative to smoking, but the reality is more complicated. While it may be less harmful than cigarettes, that doesn’t mean it’s harmless.
Vapes contain nicotine, which is highly addictive and affects brain development in young people. They also contain chemicals and fine particles that are inhaled deep into the lungs. The long-term effects of breathing these in daily life is still unknown, because vaping simply hasn’t been around long enough for us to know.
What we do know is that many people who vape experience shortness of breath, a persistent cough, throat irritation and reduced fitness. Some develop a dependence that feels harder to break than cigarettes ever did.
There’s also growing concern about the lack of regulation in the vaping industry. The contents of vape liquids can vary widely, and some have been found to contain substances that were never intended to be inhaled.

Many of my clients started vaping because they thought it was a healthier choice than smoking, but then became even more addicted than they were to cigarettes. They want to quit before the long-term health consequences become clearer.
If you’re worried about what vaping is doing to your body, hypnosis for vaping can help you stop now, before it becomes a bigger problem.

Signs You May Need Help to Quit Vaping
Nicotine dependence can creep up gradually and you might not realise how central vaping has become to your daily life until you try to stop.
Common signs include vaping first thing in the morning, feeling anxious or irritable when you can’t vape, and reaching for your device without even thinking about it. You might find yourself vaping more frequently than you used to, or needing a higher nicotine strength to feel satisfied.
Some people wake up in the night to vape. Others feel panicked if they leave the house without their device. You might have noticed that you can’t concentrate, relax or enjoy certain activities without vaping first.
If you’ve tried to quit or cut down before without success, that’s another sign that the habit has started to take over. Willpower and logic won’t work when the addiction is being controlled by your subconscious mind.

Quitting vaping is one of the best things you can do for your physical and emotional well-being. Vaping hypnosis can help you break free from this addiction to live a happier, more optimal life.
Why People Vape
People start vaping for all sorts of reasons. Some switch from cigarettes, believing it’s a healthier option. Others pick it up socially, out of curiosity, or because it seems harmless. For younger people especially, the flavours, the convenience and the lack of smell make it easy to start without thinking too much about it.
Over time, what started as occasional use can become a constant habit. You might vape to manage stress, to fill time, to give yourself a break, or simply because it’s become part of your routine. The brain learns to rely on nicotine for a quick hit of calm or focus, and the idea of getting through the day without it starts to feel difficult.
Whatever your reason for starting, the good news is that we don’t need to spend much time analysing your history. Hypnosis for quitting vaping works by changing your current habits and associations. We focus on what’s keeping you vaping now and give your subconscious what it needs to let it go.

If vaping has become a way of coping with stress, anxiety or difficult emotions, it’s worth mentioning this when we speak. Addressing the underlying issue can make all the difference to your long-term success.
Is One Session Really Enough?
For many people whose vaping is straightforward and habitual, one vaping hypnotherapy session is enough to quit. The subconscious mind can respond quickly to hypnosis, especially when you’re genuinely ready to stop. Many clients leave their session feeling like a switch has flipped, and the urge to vape simply isn’t there anymore.
However, if you’ve been vaping to manage stress, anxiety or other emotional issues, you may benefit from additional sessions. These allow us to reinforce the initial work and address any underlying factors.
The personalised MP3 recording I provide helps reinforce the positive changes and keeps your subconscious aligned with your goal of staying vape-free.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many sessions of hypnotherapy for vaping will I need?
For most people, where vaping is straightforward and habitual, one session is usually enough. If you’ve been using vaping to cope with underlying issues like anxiety or stress, you may benefit from additional sessions.
How does quit vaping hypnosis work?
Vaping hypnosis works by accessing the subconscious mind, where your habit and associations are stored. In a relaxed state, we can break the connections that keep you reaching for your vape, eliminate cravings and strengthen your motivation to quit.
What happens in a vaping hypnotherapy session?
We start with a conversation about your vaping habit, your triggers and your reasons for quitting. I then guide you into a relaxed state and use hypnosis to shift the subconscious associations that have kept you vaping. The aim is for you to leave feeling calm, in control and free from the need to vape.
Is online hypnotherapy to quit vaping as effective as in person?
Yes. Many clients find they relax more easily in their own home. All you need is a quiet, comfortable space and a good internet connection.
What if I've tried to quit vaping before and failed?
Many of my clients have tried to quit multiple times before seeing me. The difference with hypnotherapy for vaping is that we’re working with the subconscious mind, which is more powerful than the logical, rational part. By rewiring your vaping habits at a neurological level, you can achieve long-lasting changes without the need for willpower.
Will I get withdrawal symptoms after undergoing the stop vaping hypnotherapy?
Most clients find the transition much smoother than they expected. Hypnosis helps calm the nervous system and supports your brain in adjusting to functioning without nicotine. Rather than battling cravings or feeling irritable, most people feel a sense of relief and freedom from the first day.
Can hypnosis for vaping help if I'm also dealing with anxiety?
Yes. Vaping and anxiety often go together. If anxiety is a significant factor in your vaping habit, we may need to address this alongside or before the quit session. I can advise you on the best approach.
Is the quit vaping hypnotherapy suitable if I've been vaping for many years?
Yes. Even long-term habits can be changed because we’re working at the subconscious level where they’re stored. If you’ve been vaping heavily for a long time, you may benefit from a follow-up session to reinforce the work, but many long-term vapers still quit in just one session.
I switched from cigarettes to vaping. Can hypnosis for quitting vaping still help?
Yes. Whether you started vaping to quit smoking or picked it up for other reasons, the approach is the same. We work with your subconscious to break the nicotine addiction and the habitual associations that keep you vaping.
Do I need to quit completely, or can hypnotherapy help me cut down?
My quit vaping hypnosis programme is designed to help you quit completely. For most people, complete abstinence is easier to maintain than trying to moderate. If you’re unsure what’s right for you, we can discuss your goals when you get in touch.
