  I've been waiting to write this review for fear i'd relapse or that perhaps i'd break the spell. I'd been smoking since I was sixteen so roughly 21 years of my life with multiple failed attempts at quitting. And somehow one morning during lockdown lying on my sofa through zoom !! Susannah managed to break that habit. For which I am eternally grateful, over 2.5 years later I can't really believe I smoked in the first place. Thank you Susannah. P.s to anyone thinking of doing this, really have a think about all the reasons you smoke the what,why,when etc no matter how silly or embarrassing or personal you might find them.. I gave Susannah a lot of detail and I think that helped.

  I was very skeptical about this , but I said I will ill give it a try . I was smoking a pack and a half per day and I tried many times to stop but I couldn't, after my session with Susannah I just didn't want to smoke anymore and I could control this very easy . I couldn't believe it and also all my friends and my girlfriend was shocked becouse they knew I was a heavy smoker and I tried many times before to quit but was unsuccessful. I just want yo thank you so much Susannah becouse now my life improve so much , I can sleep better, I can breath better , I am more positive and I feel more healthy and confident . Thank you and I hope you can help more people like you help me .

  Utterly incredible. Smoking + drinking went together for me like... fish & chips. There was no separating the two. I assumed that once I finally stopped social smoking, I’d have to endure many miserable nights at the pub always feeling like something was missing and relying on willpower to stop me reaching for the Marly Lights for life. I went out straight after my first session and was gobsmacked that it had actually worked. People smoked around me and I didn’t care or even really notice. It never entered my head to have a cigarette. I’m a month (and many nights out) in and I can honestly say it has worked. Susannah is lovely and checked in on me after a few weeks, when we decided to do a top up session to make sure everything had stuck. I only wish I’d done it sooner.

  Absolutely amazing- sorcery of the highest order. I've been smoking for around 15 years with multiple attempts at stopping. I've also always been a bit sceptical when it comes to hypnotherapy- 'you can't trick me!'- however after yet another unsuccessful attempt at quitting ('okay then, just one more then I'll quit tomorrow' ad infinitum) i had a google and found Susannah. What Susannah does is different to what you will commonly see with smoking cessation hypnotherapy where they try and change your association with smoking to make it vile. I never found this an attractive option because firstly i don't like the idea of being tricked into thinking things and secondly a lot of my friends smoke and i have heard that as soon as you are around smoke it becomes very difficult because you realise it isn't this thing you've been told to imagine it as. Susannah's approach on the other hand is to dig into why you started smoking in the first place and why you do it now. Then, through some form of magic, she takes you out of the addictive cycle and makes smoking a conscious decision once again. it was nuts, after a 1.5 hr Zoom (i was also sceptical about the efficacy of the treatment over zoom but it was absolutely fine) i all of a sudden just didn't want to smoke any more- nor do i experience most of the 'physical' withdrawal symptoms which were always what ended up getting me to crack. life changing stuff. don't get me wrong, there are still times- normally when i get to points in my daily routine i would usually smoke- where i think ah yeah i could smoke cigarette now- but so long as you actually want to quit, and since it is now a conscious decision again, you can just say no- no urge whatsoever. these are also becoming much less frequent (been about 10 days since speaking with Susannah now) and i expect will stop completely very soon. It's the same when i've been with friends smoking- i don't find it revolting at all and can acknowledge i would have previously enjoyed a ciggy, but i don't feel that impulse at all. Susannah also provides you with a supplementary mp3 to top up if you needed (i did for the first few evenings) and offers supplemental sessions if required- but i did not! it was all a very pleasant experience and i couldn't be happier with the result. 17/10 would recommend to anyone that will listen to me (and i have been!)

  I was a smoker for nine years and couldn't imagine how life could ever be enjoyable without cigarettes. In my eyes, they made everything better, and if I gave that up, I would always be missing something special. After some words of encouragement from my husband, I thought that I might try to stop smoking, just to see what happened, and with a view to becoming healthier and richer! I had heard from a lot of people that hypnotherapy had helped loved ones to stop smoking, and so after some research online, I decided to book an appointment with Susannah. It has been just over five weeks since my appointment with Susannah, and I have not smoked a single cigarette since! The first three days were a little difficult in terms of physical withdrawal symptoms, but at no point did I actually want to have a cigarette, and once they had passed, being a non-smoker was easy! Even once I have had a few drinks and am in the company of people who are smoking, the thought of having a cigarette doesn't even cross my mind, and I genuinely don't want one! I 100% know that I will never smoke a cigarette ever again, and I have never been more content or prouder of myself in my life. I did this completely by myself, and without the help of any nicotine replacement therapy. I cannot recommend Susannah enough. She offers free follow-up appointments for four weeks after your initial appointment, and also gives you a recording to listen to whenever you like (I did not need to make use of either!). Susannah is extremely professional but also personable, and she makes you feel completely comfortable in a situation where you could understandably feel quite vulnerable. If you're thinking about giving this is a try, do it, it'll be best thing you've ever done!

  I had been a smoker for 26 years before visiting London Stop Smoking with the last 5-6 years smoking too much- So, I decided to do something for that, as, being a father, I was feeling quite guilty for doing so much harm to me, and, so, I arranged a session with Susannah Saunders. The truth is that I literally smoked my last cigarette a few minutes before entering the building at Victoria Avenue- After the session, I never smoked again. I attribute this to a combination of my determination to succeed and high efficiency of the therapist (Susannah Saunders). I strongly believe that since I managed to give up smoking, everyone can do it. Babis

  Highly recommend. Susannah was friendly, professional and helped me stop smoking within one appointment. It's been six months, and I'm very happy to say I'm still a non-smoker. A great investment!

  I came here over 12 years ago now to stop smoking. I was a little unsure how and if it would work. I stopped smoking there and then after years of 20+ a day. I'm not sure how it worked but it did and I am extremely grateful. Thank you.

  With trepidation I approached Susannah's rooms and drew a deep puff of my last cigar, keeping the packet in my pocket to make sure I could really resist whatever temptation came my way later. I had only one question before the hypnotherapy .."Afterwards will it be like AA, and will I have to say that I'm a smoker who doesn't any more?" "No... it will be like you have never smoked before" came the answer and 45 minutes later I left thinking that it hadn't worked because I thought I'd not dropped off to sleep. I spent the next year putting myself through an assault course... Mexico and Greece where everybody smokes. No temptation to resist! Over six years later I'm no longer short of breath; I've lost the couple of kilos that arrived in the first year, and I feel so much healthier. My grandchildren have never seen me smoke. I cannot thank Susannah enough and am happy to give her my unconditional endorsement. (The packet of cigars is still in my drawer as a constant reminder of 40 years of stupidity and self-destruction)
