Regain your life
Break Free and Take Back Control

Have you tried to quit smoking without success?
Do you know you need to, but just don’t know how to quit?
Is smoking catching up with you? Financially? Health-wise? Your relationship?

We can free you from smoking/vaping so that you can regain your health and enjoy a healthier bank balance. If you have been in the habit of dealing with your emotions using cigarettes or vapes, we can help you learn to leave them behind.

I use the most advanced techniques available in hypnotherapy today to access that unconscious need to smoke/vape. You will not be given direct commands or suggestions; instead, you will be given techniques that allow you to access your inner resources and make your own changes your way. You will learn to identify and process unresolved issues that may be contributing to your smoking/vaping.

Many people claim smoking/vaping is just a habit, but if it was as simple as that, why can’t they stop? The truth is it can be more complex than that. Everyone smokes/vapes for different reasons. Some smoke/vape a lot at work, and some more at night. Some only when they are drinking. It’s all different. This is why script-based approaches have limitations. This is why you need an individual approach so we can work out how you do it.

We want permanent success for you, so we knock out all the contributing factors. To do this properly, we need 4-6 sessions. Then it is done. You will receive recordings of all of the hypnotic sessions so you can ‘top up’ if you find that you are ever tempted again to go back to smoking or vaping again. The value of the work will continue for years.

Hi I’m Lynne and I look forward to working with you to quit smoking and live a healthier life.

I am an accredited Psychotherapist and Clinical Hypnotherapist with the The Australian Association of Clinical Hypnotherapy & Psychotherapy and hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Nursing and Psychology.

When you come and see me, you are also benefiting from 40 yrs of experience in dealing with people at their most vulnerable. I know how to look after you and create a safe space for you to face your fears and explore a future free of cigarettes.

Therapy is provided through hypnosis, either in the clinic or in the comfort of your home, via Zoom.

You may feel anxious and overwhelmed about the thought of giving up smoking. My speciality is working with people who are facing the challenges that life seems to throw at them. While your journey is unique to you, there are consistent patterns of thought and behaviour that everyone shares. Unlike other hypnotherapists, I am not going to read you a script. I am going to find out about you and tailor my work to meet the needs of your unconscious patterns.

How I Treat Smoking With Hypnotherapy

I believe that the more you understand what motivates you to smoke then the closer you are to living your life free of cigarettes. You are not broken and you don’t need to be fixed. There is nothing wrong with your willpower and you are not self-sabotaging; you have just been using thought patterns that haven’t been helpful.

To change the thought patterns, I offer tried, tested and proven methods using the Gordian Pillars of Psychotherapy with Hypnotherapy. I won’t be talking to you about your past habits. After all, you are not coming to me to change your past. You are coming to change your future. We break down key components and you will discover more about yourself. You will understand that it is not you, but your unconscious patterns. I help you to create a more compelling future free from the shackles of your past habits.

This may not be your first attempt to quit smoking so you may be feeling cynical that this would work for you. You may be feeling uncertain about the future and how you will cope without ‘lighting up’. You may be feeling stuck in your present situation or feel that your past attempts are holding you back from trying to quit again. I will help you to discover your inner strength to move forward with confidence, certainty, and resoluteness. We can work together to free you from thoughts and feelings that do not serve you.

Everyone starts with an introductory program of four weekly sessions. On completion, we will chat about where to go next. That is, another four-session program, or join my ongoing coaching program.

The benefits of using my services are:-

I am among the most thoroughly trained hypnotherapists in the country. What does this mean to you? Safety and comfort. (N.B. Many hypnotherapists only have weekend or short course trainings)

Real Success Stories

We have many happy clients

Lynne was recommended to me by a friend. After being in isolation for so long during covid, I realised that I felt anxious about going out, especially driving. I found Lynne to be compassionate and understanding. I had six hypnotherapy sessions and learnt that I felt this way due to how I processed my thoughts and feelings. She addressed this in hypnotherapy and gave me practical tips for dealing with the feelings if they arose. I recommend Lynne to anyone who is feeling anxious.

Kylie Black

Lynne helped me to overcome my self-doubt in changing my career path and starting my own business. I am now confident about the future and new challenges. If anyone is wanting to change their life, I highly recommend seeing Lynne.

Lili Ojdanic

I have been a smoker on and off for many years. Every time I quit smoking, I was determined that I had stopped for good. Then I would start again. After a couple of sessions with Lynne, I realised that I wasn’t addicted to cigarettes but smoked when I felt uncomfortable in certain situations. After hypnosis, I can recognise and control the feeling of reaching for cigarettes. I recommend Lynne to anyone who has tried to stop smoking, only to start again. She will show you how to see it in a different light.
