Michael has made the whole experience of becoming smoke free after 40 years seem like magic. I attempted to quit multiple times but the struggle was always overwhelming and I would start smoking again. The follow up support provided is a fantastic safety net to keep you on the track of remaining smoke free for ever 😀

Worth every dollar you just need to be 100% ready to quit and never touch it again for the rest of your life if not wait until then
Reply from Breathe Hypnotherapy 2026.06.12
HI Rhys, Thank you for this... and for the straight-up advice.
You nailed it. You absolutely need to be 100% ready. Not just wanting to quit... genuinely ready to never touch it again for the rest of your life. And if you're not there yet... wait until you are.
That's honest. That's real. And it's going to help people understand exactly what it takes.
The fact that you say it's "worth every dollar" tells me you're living the freedom and the results. You must be feeling so good about that commitment you made.
Thank you for sharing this... and for being straight with people about what readiness really means.
Cheers,
Michael

I was initially skeptical, but went into this with an open mind and determination. In the end it was the best decision I have made, for my health mainly but also financially. Thanks Michael, thank you for assisting me with this.
Reply from Breathe Hypnotherapy 2026.06.09
Hi Rob, Thank you so much for sharing this. And honestly, I think what you said is something so many people can relate to ...being skeptical at first and still choosing to keep an open mind. What really made the difference though was you. You came in with determination, you made the decision, and you followed through. I love that you mentioned both health and financial benefits because that’s the exciting part. You are not losing anything by quitting. You are winning in every respect. You’ve creatie more energy, more freedom, more time, and more opportunities to enjoy life. Seeing people discover they’re capable of creating change like this is exactly why I love what I do. Thanks so much for the review, Cheers, Michael

Amazing! I had tried quitting vaping so many times and after my first session of hypnotherapy I was able to give it up without the constant nagging thoughts of wanting to smoke. Its now been about 3 months and still going strong.
Reply from Breathe Hypnotherapy 2026.05.19
Hey Nicola ..Thank you so much for sharing this... and congratulations on 3 months! I'm so happy for you.
After trying so many times and never quite getting there, you must be feeling incredibly proud right now. And what you said about the constant nagging thoughts being gone... that's the real transformation. It's not just about stopping... it's about the mental freedom that comes with it.
Three months in and still going strong tells me your nervous system has completely recalibrated. You're simply a non-vaper now. That's your new identity.
Thank you for trusting the process and for taking the time to share your story. It's going to give so much hope to others who've tried multiple times and wondered if it's even possible to be free from those constant thoughts.
Enjoy that freedom!
Cheers,
Michael

Thanks Michael I have not had any cravings to smoke or eat, been to Bali and drank and no cravings. What a great way to give up smoking 🚬.
Reply from Breathe Hypnotherapy 2026.04.07
Hi Alan, that’s exactly how it should feel: very relaxing. You don’t really feel different at the end of the session, you just don’t have any desire to smoke ever again! Isn’t it fantastic? Thanks so much for leaving a review. It helps show people have nothing to lose by quitting 
 you feel the same .. but the desire to smoke is completely gone, cheers, Michael

It's been 30 days and I have been in every situation that would normally trigger vaping. I haven't and I won't - I simply dont want too. The possibility is null and void. It's amazing and I am so appreciative. The shame the guilt the everything bad from vaping has gone. I FEEL SOOOO MUCH BETTER
Reply from Breathe Hypnotherapy 2026.04.14
Christopher — this is absolutely phenomenal. Thank you so much for sharing this.
30 days through every trigger, every situation, every moment that used to pull you back — and the urge isn't even there anymore. That's not just willpower, that's a complete recalibration. And you did that.
What really stands out to me is what you said about the shame and guilt being gone. That's huge. You're not just free from vaping — you're free from the weight you were carrying around it. That's the kind of shift that changes everything.
I'm so glad you feel better. You deserve to feel this good.
Thank you for trusting the process, for showing up ready for change, and for taking the time to share your story. It's going to give so much hope to others who are exactly where you were a month ago.
So proud of you, mate. Keep enjoying that freedom.
With gratitude,
Michael

Hey Adam, it was a true pleasure meeting you. I love being able to help in this way. Your review is important because it could really help others see how easy quitting can be with this unique system, and it could help make a real difference in people’s lives. Thank you so much! Cheers, Michael

Fantastic experience, having felt like a cigarette since. Appreciate the session
Reply from Breathe Hypnotherapy 2026.04.14
That's brilliant, Garrath — so glad to hear it!
The fact that you haven't felt like a cigarette since says it all. That's your brain and body working together in a completely new way — and it's exactly what's supposed to happen.
Really appreciate you taking the time to share this. Your experience is going to help someone else take that first step.
All the best moving forward — enjoy the freedom!
Cheers,

I was trying to quite smoking for years, it makes quoting so easy
Reply from Breathe Hypnotherapy 2026.02.24
HI David, Thanks so much for taking the time to leave this! After 20+ years of smoking and trying everything else without success, hearing that the process felt easy for you is exactly what I hope for with every client.
I really appreciate you sharing your experience – reviews like yours help others who've been struggling for years realize there's a different approach that actually works. When someone's tried patches, gum, and willpower without success, your story might be exactly what they need to see to pick up the phone.
Thanks again for sharing this – enjoy your smoke-free life!

I had an amazing experience with Michael Whelehan at Breathe Hypnotherapy. I went in for hypnotherapy to quit smoking and, honestly, I was a bit skeptical at first. But after just one session the results were incredible. Michael was very professional, calm and made me feel completely comfortable throughout the session. The whole experience was relaxing and he explained the process clearly. What surprised me the most was how quickly it worked. My cravings for cigarettes dropped dramatically and my mindset towards smoking completely changed. I didn’t expect such a powerful result from just one session. If you’re struggling to quit smoking, I highly recommend Michael at Breathe Hypnotherapy. It truly made a huge difference for me.
Reply from Breathe Hypnotherapy 2026.04.14
Emin, thank you so much for sharing such a thoughtful and detailed review — it really means a lot.
I love that you came in skeptical. Honestly, that's a healthy place to start — and the fact that you experienced such a dramatic shift even with that skepticism shows just how ready your mind and body were for the change.
The drop in cravings and the complete mindset shift you described? That's the real transformation. It's not about forcing yourself to resist — it's about the desire itself changing. And that's exactly what happened for you.
I'm so glad the session felt calm and comfortable. That's always my goal — to create a space where change can happen naturally, without pressure or struggle.
Thank you for being open to the process, for showing up ready (even with doubts!), and for taking the time to share your story. It's going to help so many others who are sitting where you were a month ago.
Really proud of the work you've done. Enjoy your smoke-free life!
With gratitude,
Michael

If you are prepared to commit, this will work! At the end of the day - what have you got to lose?
Reply from Breathe Hypnotherapy 2026.02.24
Hi Leora, Love this! You're absolutely right – commitment is key, and when you're ready to make that decision, the process works beautifully.
"What have you got to lose?" is such a great way to put it. I really appreciate you taking the time to leave this review – it helps others who are on the fence realize that when they're truly ready, there's a way forward that actually works.
Thanks for sharing your experience!
Best,
Michael

It’s been 1 month since Micheal hypnotise me the best decision I ever made. I tried so many other ways to stop without Success. I can not believe my life changed in 1hr thank you Micheal
Reply from Breathe Hypnotherapy 2026.01.21
Wow, thanks so much for leaving this review Lorraine. Hearing that you've gone from 20-30 cigarettes a day to smoke-free is absolutely brilliant (and quite normal with our unique system). I'm really grateful you took the time to share this – it genuinely helps others who are in the same boat take that leap and give me a call.
It's amazing how quickly your body starts to recover, isn't it? The breathing and sense of smell coming back are just the beginning. The work we did together uses a unique approach with hypnotherapy NLP and CBT, and I'm thrilled it's resonated so well with you.
Thanks again for trusting me with this – it means a lot. Enjoy that new lease on life!

My Experience with Hypnosis for Vaping (with Michael) I went into my session with Michael feeling equal parts hopeful and sceptical. I’d been vaping for years, and it felt completely wired into my nervous system. I wanted to stop — but willpower alone had never worked for me. From the moment the session started, Michael created a space that felt safe, calm, and completely non-judgemental. There was no pressure, no shame, and no “you must stop” energy. It felt like being gently guided into a state where my body could finally relax and listen. The hypnosis itself was nothing like I expected. I wasn’t asleep and I wasn’t out of control. I was deeply relaxed, present, and aware — like that floaty state just before you fall asleep. My mind was quiet, my body felt heavy, and the usual internal noise just faded. What surprised me most was how emotional it felt. It helped me realise vaping wasn’t just a habit — it had become a way to regulate stress, overwhelm, and even boredom. The session helped separate that need for regulation from the behaviour itself. And here’s the part that still blows my mind: I haven’t vaped once since my appointment — and five days later, I honestly don’t even think about it. No constant cravings. No bargaining with myself. No white-knuckling it. The urge just
 stopped running the show. I don’t feel like I’ve “given something up.” I feel like I’ve got something back — space, clarity, and calm. If you’ve tried to quit before and felt stuck, this felt like a genuinely different approach — one that works with your nervous system, not against it. I’m so grateful I did this. THANK YOU MICHAEL!!!!

Hey Emma, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience in such thoughtful detail — this truly means the world to me.
Reading about your journey from skepticism to such a profound shift in just one session is exactly why I do this work. You came in ready for change, even if you weren't sure how it would happen, and that openness made all the difference.
I'm especially glad the session helped you see the distinction between the need your nervous system had and the behaviour you'd been using to meet it. That insight is so powerful, and it sounds like it's created exactly the kind of space and clarity you were looking for.
Five days with no cravings, no battle, no constant mental negotiation — that's not willpower, that's your system recalibrating. And you did that. I just helped create the conditions for it to happen.
Thank you for trusting the process, for showing up with an open mind, and for sharing your story so generously. I have no doubt it will give hope to others who are feeling stuck in the same place you were.
Wishing you continued ease, calm, and all the clarity that comes with it.
With gratitude,
Michael

I reached out seeking support to reduce and eventually quit vaping, as I’ve struggled to do this on my own and was looking for a calm, compassionate approach. Unfortunately, my experience felt very fear-based rather than supportive. The consultation and follow-up communication focused heavily on extreme health claims, financial guilt around money already spent, and hypothetical arguments about how I would be fine if I’d never started vaping. While some of these points may be intended as motivation, they didn’t feel helpful or relevant to my situation. At times, the approach felt shaming rather than supportive, which made it difficult for me to feel safe or comfortable continuing. Despite explaining that my motivation was health (not money), this wasn’t really acknowledged, and the messaging increased anxiety rather than offering grounded, non-judgemental strategies for change. This style may suit people who respond well to confrontational or fear-based motivation, but it wasn’t the right fit for me, and I think it’s important prospective clients understand the tone and approach before engaging.

Hi Sabrina, I am a bit confused. One Very Important clarification: You were never a client of mine. We had one brief, free discovery phone call, and you did not proceed to book or pay for any consultation, hypnotherapy session, or treatment with me. I'm genuinely wondering if this review was intended for another practitioner or business you actually worked with, as it seems unusual to leave a detailed review for a service you never used.
If this review is based solely on our brief phone conversation, I need to respectfully address several points:
During that call, I shared factual information about what's in vape products (formaldehyde, lead, arsenic, tin, diacetyl, and vegetable glycerin) - not to shame you, but because understanding what you're inhaling is critical information for quitting, especially given your motivation for quitting. This information may feel confronting, but these are medical facts, not judgment.
I specifically advised multiple times during our conversation: "It is not your fault you can't quit." I explained that only 5% of smokers quit on their own, that NRT has only 12% success rates, and that the real addiction is in the unconscious mind. As a former heavy smoker of 30+ cigarettes a day, I understand exactly how difficult this is. I've helped people who quit cocaine and heroin but still couldn't quit smoking until they addressed the unconscious patterns - there is absolutely no shame in that struggle.
The discovery call is simply an educational conversation to see if we're a good fit to work together - it's not the actual treatment or therapy. I'm sorry if the information felt uncomfortable, but my role is to provide honest, factual information to help people make informed decisions about their health.
I wish you all the best in finding the right support to quit vaping. Michael

I didn’t actually pursue treatment — yet— but was so grateful to be taken seriously in the free phone consult, have an exercise used on me and provided information, resources and exercises to move ahead with. Even just the short chat has really helped me critically engage with my habit.
Reply from Breathe Hypnotherapy 2026.01.07
Hi Alice, thanks so much for your review. It helps others understand that our free strategy call can include practical exercises and resources that help people quit on their own
 of course most need more help, but some are very close to quitting and have quit on their own after their strategy call, please don’t hesitate to get back in touch if you need more support or would like to book a session, cheers, Michael

Paid the $495 for the hypnotherapy. Then said I must pay another $500. No mention of the additional $500 in our introduction. Did not work for me. No money back guarantee either.
Reply from Breathe Hypnotherapy 2025.12.30
Hi Istvan, thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

While it’s never pleasant to hear that someone feels disappointed, I do appreciate the opportunity to clarify things for future clients.

Firstly, I am here to support you. I am here for you 100% if you still want to quit, please just give me a call when you feel you are ready.

As explained clearly before and during the session, the program you chose includes unlimited support for the first 30 days, specifically so that if urges or discomfort arise, we can address them immediately and prevent relapse. It seems that you chose to smoke rather than reach out for that support. I did call you the day after your session however I wasn’t able to reach you and didn’t receive a call back.

Regarding the cost, there was no additional or surprise fee. The total price was explained during the initial qualifying call and again in the booking email. As is standard, this was structured as a deposit followed by the remaining balance after the session — the total amount does not change - and you did not question this amount when providing your credit card details at the end of the session.

It’s also important to clarify that hypnotherapy is not something that is done to a person — it’s a process we do together. My role is to provide the tools, techniques, and support; the client’s role is to use them, especially during the critical early period. This is why follow-up contact is strongly encouraged at the first sign of difficulty.

For anyone reading this: most people only leave reviews when they are unhappy, yet despite that, we have over 150 five-star reviews and have helped thousands of people quit successfully. That consistency matters.

Istvan, I am still here to help you quit if and when you’re ready to engage fully with the support offered I would love to help you quit for good. Please give me a call when ready.

Wishing you health and happiness, Michael
