Stop Vaping Hypnotherapy
Stop vaping hypnotherapy in Fareham, Hampshire, and online
One focused session to leave vaping behind.
Your conscious mind already knows you want to stop. It is the subconscious, the part that drives the cravings and habits, that keeps pulling you back. Our specialist hypnotherapy works there, so quitting feels natural rather than a battle of willpower.

Helping people break free from nicotine since 2003
Stop vaping hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation to work with the subconscious associations that link vaping to your everyday routines, rather than relying on willpower to resist them.
At OLIP Therapy, formerly the Hampshire Hypnotherapy & Counselling Centre, we have been helping people quit nicotine since 2003. Our stop-vaping work is led by specialists James Holmes, Gavin Blackman and Joanna Bevis.
Vaping hooks you through habit as much as nicotine, linking your vape to coffee, stress or a break, until those associations feel impossible to fight. Hypnotherapy works on the associations themselves.

For many people the session pays for itself within a couple of months.
What happens when you stop
These are the milestones commonly reported after stopping nicotine. Everyone is a little different, and the research on vaping specifically is younger than the research on smoking.
Your heart rate and blood pressure begin to settle.
Most of the nicotine has left your body, and your sense of taste and smell start to sharpen.
Breathing feels easier and your energy begins to lift.
Your circulation improves and everyday activity feels easier.
Any vaping-related cough or breathlessness tends to ease.
Cravings are usually a thing of the past, with lasting gains for your health and your wallet.
A single two-hour session
Using a range of proven hypnotherapy techniques, we help you become a happy non-vaper, not an "ex-vaper" white-knuckling it. In one focused session we work with you to:
Reduce the desire to vape, without feeling you are giving something up
Ease cravings for e-cigarettes and vapes
Break the mental associations that keep you reaching for it
Shift the mindset, so vaping is not simply swapped for snacking
Help you breathe easier, feel calmer and enjoy more time, money and freedom
Why hypnotherapy works so well
It targets the subconscious triggers behind your cravings, which is why quitting can feel natural rather than a fight.
We will be straight with you about the evidence. Hypnotherapy for stopping nicotine has been studied for decades with encouraging but mixed results, and reviewers have concluded there is not yet enough high-quality trial data to say it clearly outperforms other methods. What we can tell you is our own record, and that we will be honest at your free consultation about whether we think this is right for you.

You should not need to swap vaping for snacking
The weight worry is real, and it comes from replacing one habit with another. Because we work towards you becoming a true non-vaper rather than an "ex-vaper" filling a gap, there is no crutch to swap to. The aim is that you leave free, not deprived.
No swinging watches, no losing control
Hypnosis is simply a safe, relaxed and focused state, like being absorbed in a film or driving on autopilot. You stay fully aware and in control throughout. It is calm, natural and surprisingly enjoyable.

Common questions about quitting vaping
Can I really quit vaping in one session?
Our stop-vaping programme is a single two-hour session, and for most people that is all they book. What matters most is that you genuinely want to stop. If we think a single session is not the right approach for you, we will say so at the free consultation rather than afterwards.
How much does it cost?
£295 for a single two-hour session, including VAT, with a free consultation beforehand. There is no course to sign up to.
Does hypnotherapy to quit vaping actually work?
It works with the subconscious triggers behind your cravings rather than relying on willpower, which is why many people find it easier than going it alone. The research on hypnotherapy for nicotine is encouraging but mixed, and we would rather tell you that than promise you a percentage.
What if it does not work for me?
We will be honest at the free consultation about whether we think this is right for you, and we would rather turn you away than take your money. If you find yourself struggling afterwards, get in touch and we will talk through what would help next.
Do I need lots of willpower?
No. What you need is the desire to become a non-vaper and a commitment to the change. A little nervousness beforehand is completely normal.
Will I gain weight when I stop?
Not necessarily. Weight gain usually comes from replacing vaping with snacking, so we work towards you becoming a true non-vaper with no substitute habit rather than simply removing the vape.
Is hypnosis safe, and what does it feel like?
It is safe when delivered by trained, qualified therapists. It is a deeply relaxed, focused state in which you remain fully aware and in control the whole time, similar to daydreaming or being lost in a good book.
Can I do it online?
Yes. We offer stop-vaping hypnotherapy in person in Fareham, Hampshire, and securely online across the UK.
