Stop smoking hypnotherapy in County Durham.
Ready to stop smoking or vaping? One focused hypnotherapy session with Karyn Bowering, a clinical hypnotherapist and former NHS mental health specialist. £85, with a free consultation first.

Stop smoking hypnosis
One focused session, built around your habit.
Smoking and vaping are rarely just about nicotine. They’re tied to routines, stress and moments in the day. In your session we look at what keeps the habit going for you, and use hypnotherapy to help you make the change you’ve decided on.
Whatever you use, the session is individual to you:
- Cigarettes and rolling tobacco
- Vapes and e-cigarettes
- Stress and routine triggers
- Adults and teenagers
Stop smoking work is usually a single one-hour session, £85. We’ll talk it through in a free 30-minute consultation first, so you know exactly what to expect.

£85 for a one-hour session, with a free consultation before you book.
