Quit Smoking

From the moment I had stepped into Dora’s office, she made me feel welcome and comfortable. She has an easy, enthusiastic and curious way about her, that made the initial questionnaire/assessment stage pleasant and interesting, but I’ll hold off from spoilers. She seemed knowledgeable when explaining psychological/neurobiological basis of substance dependence and how hypnotherapy treatment works, checking if I follow from time to time and inviting questions for full transparency. The hypnotherapy session was pleasant, and I was also given a recording to listen to every night, in order to strengthen the effects of the session (which I did). I didn’t feel tempted to smoke for three weeks now and have refused offers of cigarettes from others on multiple occasions since. What also surprised me is that I didn’t experience the agitation surrounding withdrawal, but instead felt like I did before I started smoking. Having had 13 unsuccessful attempts in the past, I didn’t have high expectations, but I now have the confidence in being able to quit for good that I didn’t have in the past. I have recommended Dora’s services to friends and colleagues, and, I will be coming back to make a lasting change in another area of my life. Many thanks!
