Effective smoking cessation with the Rob Kelly Method ® in Cambridge and London
A unique 60 to 90 minute session for empowering you to stop smoking!
In a recent research survey (may 2011) 92.5% of participants reported stopping smoking using the Rob Kelly Method. The average time at which participants completed the questionnaire was 28.1 days post-session (4 weeks). When given the opportunity to state why they felt that they had or hadn’t stopped smoking, as well as comment on the effects of the process, 84 participants out of 107 (78.5%) submitted answers. Of these, 73 participants (86.9% of those that gave answers to this part of the questionnaire) indicated that they found the process either quite easy, easy or very easy. Please click here to read the research report in full.
Other research also suggests that stopping smoking is actually much easier than most people would expect - if you go about it the right way! Contradicting what you probably believe to be true about smoking cesstion, Schachter (1982) found that 64% of those in a non-clinical population who tried to quit smoking on their own managed to do so - many quite painlessly (as cited in Katz and Singh, 1986).
The Rob Kelly Method
Within The Rob Kelly Method of stopping smoking I have combined many unique insights into why people REALLY smoke, with suggestion therapy, visualisation, positive thinking and applied psychological techniques, to make stopping smoking as easy as possible. With the method I have developed, I have helped over 5000 smokers and I have also trained about 400 other hypnotherapists in this technique.
Since starting my practice I have regularly followed up my smoking cessation clients to confirm that they have stopped. Over the last year I have asked my smoking clients to fill in an online questionnaire after they have undergone the session so that the results are available in a digital form easily viewable to prospective clients. 92.5% of these clients reported that they had stopped smoking after using the Rob Kelly Method.
Although my method will really empower you to stop smoking, this does not mean that you do not have to put any effort in at all! There is NO MAGIC to hypnosis or the techniques I use - they are an AID to you, they will HELP YOU, but they WILL NOT do it for you. Although you don't need to turn up with the belief that you have willpower (I will help you to create that!), you do need to pay attention during the session and you need to be honest during the session and you do need to put some effort in during the session.
The reasons why my stop smoking session is different to others out there and why it enables you to quit easily are explained below.

All About Smoking Cessation with the Rob Kelly Method
My smoking cessation session enables you to change your belief system (the way you think and feel about smoking) to that of a 'non-smoker' rather than an 'ex-smoker'. Ex-smokers who have stopped smoking for a while using willpower or most of the other smoking cessation techniques out there, still think about smoking... They would still really like to smoke... They feel stressed and grumpy without a cigarette... Inevitably most of these people will soon go back to smoking.
With my method of smoking cessation, your belief system is entirely changed to that of a NON-SMOKER. You will learn to see smoking from a completely different perspective. Non-smokers find it extremely easy not to smoke – they don’t have cravings, they don’t feel grumpy if they don’t smoke, they don’t even think about smoking! This is why the Rob Kelly Method has such impressive results.
Why is it (normally!) so hard to quit?
The first reason why people normally find it hard to stop smoking is that they believe it will be hard to quit. This belief that it will be hard to quit tends to be related to beliefs about the addictiveness about nicotine.
Research by Katz and Singh (1986) found:
"Beliefs about the addictive properties of nicotine were associated with the presence of withdrawal symptoms and the number of attempts at quitting before succeeding. Subjects with strong beliefs that nicotine was addictive were the ones who were most troubled by withdrawal symptoms and who had made more attempts at quitting before succeeding"
A great quote from a research paper is:
"Eiser and Sutton (1977) have argued that the decision facing the would-be quitter is not whether to smoke or quit but whether to smoke or try to quit."
(Eiser, Van der Pligt, Raw and Sutton, 1985)
I.e. many people do not set out to 'stop smoking' but to 'try to stop'. Because many people believe that stopping smoking is something at which most people fail, they inadvertently set themselves up to fail too by deciding to try to quit.
A study by Yates and Thain (1985) found that self-efficiacy - belief about whether one could stop smoking - was the best predictor of whether or not a person would stop smoking without relapse at both 4 months and 8 months after quitting. Research by DiClemente (1981) found that, after a stop smoking attempt, relapsers and maintainers did not differ on any demographic or smoking history variables. However, maintainers did show significantly higher self-efficacy scores than relapsers. My smoking cessation session will provide you with a huge amount of self-belief that you will quit smoking after the session.
Another reason why most people find it hard to give up smoking is because they receive no immediate or tangible BENEFIT for doing so: they get no reward... you give up something you love or need, for no reason at all. It's no wonder people get crabby/angry etc
Let me give you an example:
If somebody offered you ten pounds for your gold chain/watch, would you take it?
No, of course you wouldn't.
What about £20? £50? What about £500?
Chances are, if the amount offered kept rising, then sooner or later an amount would be reached that was an acceptable price/exchange for your piece of jewellery, even if it was a family heirloom or a present from a loved one.
You wouldn't give it up for nothing, you'd be mad!
You'd want to be adequately compensated for your loss!
The better the 'deal' you get, the better you feel about it.
The worse the 'deal' you get, the worse you feel about it. Makes sense?
Now.........
Part of you wants to smoke. You like it. You need it. You might even love it! You've probably done it for years and years. It helps you to relieve stress and tension. It makes you feel confident, when you are feeling insecure. It calms you down when you've been feeling anxious. It acts as a reward after a tough day at work. It makes you feel 'whole', and 'complete'. (I could go on and on and on here) Why would you want to give up all those benefits?, and receive no reward for doing so?
Why do YOU! want to quit?
You might think that by quitting you would; live a little longer, feel a little healthier, get nagged a little less from your partner or kids, save a few quid, or have nicer smelling breath. The trouble is, ..........and here is the problem, ........... none of those reasons bring immediate rewards i.e. You don't feel healthier/fitter/richer/nicer smelling/less nagged, the day after quitting smoking. (or the next day, or week, or even month).
That doesn't sound like a good deal to me! - give up something I love, and in five years I may just feel a little healthier!
No wonder people often get stressed, moody, stroppy, angry and depressed when they quit smoking by willpower alone.
People want their rewards and benefits NOW - not in five/ten/twenty years time.
Hypnotherapy for smoking cessation is so successful, because you do receive immediate rewards for your efforts;
you feel an intense sense of pride and satisfaction
you receive an immediate boost to your willpower
you gain a huge amount of confidence in your ability to remain a non smoker
situations that used to make you feel stressed or anxious, now just relax you
....this list could go on and on and on......
Ask yourself this;
... if you received a fantastic sense of well-being,
calmness, pride and satisfaction
everytime you got yourself in a situation
where you used to have a cigarette,
why would you EVER want or need to smoke again?
Hypnosis really is a very successful way a stopping smoking. Ten years ago the largest study ever conducted into stopping smoking was undertaken in the U.S.A. (Viswesvaran and Schmidt, 1992) It studied pretty much every conceivable method for smoking cessation. In theis study most techniques turned out to be hopeless, Hypnosis however came out as the most effective anti-smoking technique. The only group of people who were more likely to quit than those undergoing hypnosis were not average smokers but cardiac patients, who had a very strong incentive to do so as their immediate health was seriously at risk.
A recent study on hypnosis and smoking cessation (Elkins and Rajab, 2004) found that at the end of treatment, 81% of those participants reported that they had stopped smoking, and 48% reported abstinence at 12 months posttreatment.
The above research is based purely on 'suggestion therapy' (normal hypnotherapy), where the client is relaxed into a light hypnotic state and given positive suggestions into their subconscious, to help them stop smoking. My method builds significantly upon the simple suggestion therapy session. I have spent over 20 years taking thousands of clients, with a huge range of symptoms and problems, through a unique form of therapy called Pure Hypnoanalysis. As a result of this, I have gained a great deal of insight into people's motivations and behaviour. I have combined these insights into why people REALLY smoke, with suggestion therapy, visualisation, positive thinking and applied psychological techniques, to make stopping smoking as easy as possible.
The actual session lasts about one hour - an approximately forty minute 'talky bit', followed by a twenty minute hypnosis session. During the 'talky bit' I will challenge your belief system (the way you think and feel about smoking) by asking you questions (some quite personal!), getting you to think differently about smoking, challenging your beliefs about why you smoke, and getting you to see the whole smoking business from a totally different perspective (Warning: much banter, humor and swearing may be employed during this part of the session!)
With the powerful Smoking Cessation techniques that I use, in a recent survey 92.5% of smokers reported that they were able to quit - in just one session.

Video - Becoming a non-smoker with hypnosis
Watch Paul and his story of how he quit smoking easily in one hour with hypnotherapy in Cambridge with me. In one session, Paul quit - from smoking 30 cigarettes a day to nothing...no stress....no cravings....no gum or willpower needed and he felt fantastic. This is his story...
Q. Will I be 'under', or 'out of control' during the session?
A. No. You will be relaxed, in a very light state of hypnosis.....fully alert and fully in control at all times. You can speak, move, open your eyes or do anything else you would like to do.... you DO NOT have to be in a 'stage hypnosis' type of trance - just a very light, relaxed state.
Q. Do you offer any sort of 'Guarantees', or 'money back if it doesn't work'?
A. Yes, of course I do, I also cure the blind, heal the sick, and bring the dead back to life! No, I don't offer any guarantees - and no professional therapist should. YOU need to accept some responsibility for YOUR smoking habit, and YOU need to put some effort in if you want to stop - nobody can do it for you. I will help you a great deal, but I cannot do it for you. I have stopped over 5000 smokers in the last 20 years but could not have guaranteed any single one of them. I have also trained about 400 other therapists in how to help people to stop smoking, and they couldn't guarantee it either. There is NO MAGIC to hypnosis or hypnotherapy - it can HELP you to achieve many things in life, but none of these things can be guaranteed, because it depends on how much effort YOU, the client, puts in. Where hypnotherapists do offer 'money back guarantees' or 'free back up sessions', they are being unethical, unprofessional and not helping you at all.
Q. Why do you, and other hypnotherapists, charge so much more for a smoking cessation session, than other symptoms you treat?
A. An 'Easy Smoking Cessation' session, the way I do them, is the most involved type of hypnotherapy session that I run. It involves far more time, preparation, effort, skill, experience, character-assessment, insight and general hard-work, than any other symptom or condition that I treat. That is why it costs more. If you don't think stopping smoking would be worth £295 to you, then please read no further, for you are wasting your time!
Q. Why is your success rate SO MUCH HIGHER than most other therapists?
A. A number of reasons really:
I have been helping people to stop smoking for over 20 years, and have learned a great deal from the 5000 smokers I have stopped.
I run the session very differently to most other therapists, and focus on very different topics
I help the client to change their BELIEF SYSTEM - to that of a NON-SMOKER... and as a non-smoker, it is very easy to stop smoking.
I train other hypnotherapists - I'm director of training for the International Association of Hypnoanalysts - and come into contact with students and other hypnotherapists on a daily basis and share information on the best techniques
Most importantly of all...... I don't approach stopping smoking from the same view point as 'normal' hypnotherapists.. I am an analytical hypnotherapist by profession, and have taken many thousands of people through 'therapy'. Taking people through therapy gives (the therapist) tremendous insight into WHY we have habits, phobias and other symptoms.. I use these insights into the unconscious motivations BEHIND smoking cessation, to eliminate the habit at at unconscious level.
Q. What happens if I stop smoking, but start again in six months time?
A. This is very unlikely to happen, as when I help people to stop smoking, I help them to change their belief system about smoking as well (Which means they become a 'non smoker) If you did go back to smoking, there would have to have been some big emotional trauma to precipitate it. I would speak with you about whether it was sensible to have another session.
Q. Is every smoker suitable for this treatment?
A. Yes, unless they have a history of psychoses.
Q. Will I need gum, patches, placebos, zyban or anything else to help me?
A. No. Nothing.
Q. I have been to another hypnotherapist before and it didn't work - would it still be worth it coming to see you?
A. Yes, my techniques are TOTALLY different to most other therapists - please see the videos and testimonials below.
Q. Why do you insist on clients paying cash for smoking cessation?
A. Part of the reason you will stop when you come and see me, is because you will have a tangible reason to stop. A lot of emphasis is placed upon what is tangible and not tangible. A cheque, or a credit card slip, is not tangible, and might effect your committment. Cash is tangible, it is real... this helps to focus your attention
Q. Do I need to put in any effort?
A. Yes you do. There is NO MAGIC to hypnosis - it is an AID to you, it will HELP YOU, but it WILL NOT do it for you. You need to pay attention during the session, you need to be honest during the session, and you need to put some effort into the session.

Dear Robert
I just wated to say thank you for provideing me with the mechanism to quit the fags. Worked like a dream, and the whole process was without effort, stress or discomfort. The implications of giving up the evil weed have been far-reaching and the general level of my everyday existance has been raised dramatically, as has my personal esteem! Thanks again. Darren Dixon, Cambridge University
Dear Rob
You are a fu**ing star mate.
It is six months to the day since I came to see you, and I can honestly say that not only have I not smoked a single fag, but I haven't really even thought about it.
No side effects, no withdrawal, I didn't kill the wife, and I haven't put on loads of weight. I'm amazed (and happy), my wife loves you, and my GP wants to send you all his smokers. You have probably forgotten who I am, but I am the annoying paddy who was on 50 a day. Joking aside Rob, it's a fucking miracle mate. Thank you so much. Gordon McDavy, TTLabtech
Dear Rob,
I'd like to drop a line to say thanks for your help to stop smoking. Though other than a brief chat I can't remember much more than some background music and that I then became a non-smoker. No side effects, total indifference to others smoking, another success story. A real life changer - thanks again. Martin
40 a day, for forty years. Stopped in 60 minutes. Fu**ing unbelievable! I Don’t miss it, I don’t think about, I feel bloody marvelous. Thank you so much. Angie Hood, Cambridge
Dear Rob
Twelve months ago today I came to you to quit smoking.
I am delighted to say that I have not touched a cigarette since. Thank you so much for releasing me from this bad habit. The money I spent on your session has been "saved" many times over since I saw you!!. Best regards, Martyn, a non-smoker.
After smoking 40 a day for 40 years I thought I would never stop, and would end up going the way of my Granddad and Father - lung cancer. Out of desperation I tried the Rob Kelly Method, and haven't smoked a single cigarette ever since. It has completely changed my life and my family is so grateful. Thanks Rob Dave Barry, Cambridge
The Rob Kelly Method is an amazingly powerful technique that is able to completely change a smokers belief system - into that of a non-smoker. I had smoked solidly for 18 years and was in Rob's clinic for under an hour....
I haven't smoked, or wanted to smoke, ever since. Dr James Froggatt Phd.
Dear Rob, Thank you so much for allowing me to be a guinea pig at your smoking cessation course. Even before we got the hypnosis bit I knew I was done. It has been nearly 3 years and I can honestly say I know I will never have another cigarette. Thanks to your method I know I’m finally over them!
Thanks again, Ayse.
Brilliant Rob. I saw you five months ago now, and I haven't touched one since. Superb! Janet Rogers, Cambridge
Unbelievable! I never thought in a million years I could give up smoking - and I did it so easily! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. Karen Stevenson, Haverhill
I'm sorry for doubting you Rob! I now 100% believe I was not addicted to nicotine or smoking - sorry I was such a pain in the arse! Clare Mowbray, Cambridge
Thanks Rob - I haven't even thought about it, not alone had one! Mrs Brownhill, Cambridge
Press and magazine clippings about stopping smoking with hypnosis in Cambridge
"Hypno help - to beat the weed" Extract from the Cambridge Evening News, 8th March 2000
"Nicotine is not addictive and giving up smoking is easy" - these are the controversial words of Robert Kelly, a Hypnotherapist with one of the best success rates in the country.
"Getting people to give up smoking is about the easiest thing I do," he said. And to prove it, he promised to hypnotise News' Sue Green, a serial smoker who has tried every method in the book to give up the dreaded weed. In a lengthy consultation from his Cambridge practice, Mr Kelly talked through his beliefs, about why people smoke - and why they find it hard to give up.
"It's my belief that it is a fallacy that people are addicted to nicotine," he said. "Smokers do not crave nicotine while they are asleep. You just need to go into any drug rehabilitation clinic to see heroin addicts banging their heads against the wall in the night - because if you are truly addicted to something, you need it in your bloodstream morning, noon and night. People have different personality types and those who smoke are Oral Compulsives - if it is not smoking, it is food, or nailbiting, or drinking. It is not a question of will power, of lack of self confidence, it is all about anxiety and stress".
"When people feel anxiety or stress they feel they need to restore confidence by smoking (or drinking, or eating). The reason why so many people fail to stop smoking is because there is no real incentive to give up. People usually feel that they have given up something for nothing i.e. there is no 'tangible' or immediate reward / benefit."
"What I do is offer people something in return. Every time they do not smoke they will feel a buzz (reward) far greater than the one they ever got from smoking."
Mr Kelly also uses positive suggestion to make sure his patients do not turn to another oral substitute, such as overeating. To hypnotise Sue, Mr Kelly used a combination of suggestion therapy, visualisation and positive thinking.
Hypnotherapist Robert Kelly has seen between 250-400 smokers a year for the last ten years. Last year, of the 400 smokers he saw, only 18 returned for a second session because they had gone back to smoking.
Mr Kelly, who is based at The Beechwood Practice, in Hills Road, Cambridge, has studied hypnosis, psychotherapy and psychoanalysis for over 11 years, and since setting up practice in Cambridge eight years ago has seen over 3000 patients.
As well as smoking cessation, he has also successfully treated people suffering from phobias, migraines, sexual problems, depression and insomnia.
Mr Kelly offers a free introductory consultation to people who would like to find out more before they embark on therapy. For more information contact Robert Kelly on 01223 301577.
"A patient's eye view" by Sue Green
I'm not crabby and I'm not smoking - but it's early days. It's been more than 48 hours - and I haven't had a cigarette. No big deal? It is for me. And I feel completely relaxed about it. That is the big difference.
Before this latest, and hopefully final effort to beat the weed, colleagues and family would have experienced the less attractive side of my nature - the short-tempered, unreasonable, sometimes hysterical side that has accompanied every other attempt at giving up.
When I arrived at Robert Kelly's office, I was anxious; I could not sit down in the waiting room. I paced. I was not convinced that I could be hypnotised, and thought the hypnotherapy approach would be, at best, ineffective. I am not weird, and not often wacky, but I can spot both characteristics a mile off.
Robert's office was normal (no couch, no odd time pieces to swing in front of my eyes) and Robert was normal too (no particular hairstyle, no wild eyebrows, no glint of madness behind the eyes). He was charming and professional and I soon felt more at ease. Maybe there was something to it after all.
His statistics speak for themselves - a 90% plus success rate and very few clients needing a second dose of this particular kind of medicine. We chatted, I unwound. Robert was straight with me throughout. During my initial consultation, he said, he can weed out those he is unable to help, and I was a perfect subject.
Robert sat me in a comfortable chair and used his voice to induce me into a state of hypnosis - this did not feel like anything I had expected. I knew I could open my eyes at any time. I could hear him. But I felt calm, warm, safe and very, very relaxed.
I came away with an impression of Robert as a favourite teacher. I liked him, I liked his approach and enthusiasm for his subject, I like the fact that he was normal.
As well as wanting the therapy to succeed for all the right reasons, there is an added incentive - part of me doesn't want to let him down. He was so sure the therapy was going to work on me. I was, after all, an ideal subject.
As so far, so good. I'm not smoking and I'm not crabby.
"It's goodbye to smoking"
Extract from the Cambridge Evening News, March 30 2000
It's goodbye to cigarettes after 25 years and one Hypno session News assistant chief sub editor Sue Green gave up smoking in time for National Non Smoking Day after visiting a Hypnotherapist but that was more than three weeks ago.... It's been three whole weeks since I went to the hypnotist and I haven't smoked since. This has amazed me and it has astonished my family and friends who, in the past have been subjected to the extremely short-tempered outbursts which have always accompanied previous "I've packed it in" attempts. I can't say I haven't missed it.
There were times when I was sorely tempted but I have not experienced the gnawing cravings of the past. I had just one session with hypnotherapist Robert Kelly, who sees his clients at the Beechwood Practice in Hills Road, Cambridge. He said at the time I was an ideal subject and one session would be enough. It seems he was right. I posted a daily bulletin at work during the first week, letting colleagues know how things were going; Day 1 No I haven't Day 2 All is well Day 3 Cruising Day 4 Still clean but tricky moment while watching the TV that night, which was overcome by the consumption of chocolate biscuits Day 5 I'm Okay The first weekend my children conspired against me and I nearly buckled.
The second week was much as the first. There were a couple of times when I really missed the habit but I resisted. Now, here we are in week four and still all is well. I think about smoking less than I did and, in fact, I'm feeling quietly pleased with myself. I can't believe how different it has been this time. During the past 25 years, I have 'given up' more times than I can remember. I was only ever successful during pregnancy, and even then I cheated.! I know it's still early days but I have been to a pub and too a party and I haven't smoked.
My children have all been monsters and I haven't smoked.
My colleagues are still smoking - and I'm not.
I've got this feeling I might have cracked it this time!!!
"Hypnotism and the demon weed" Extract from the Cambridge Evening News, October 23 1999
Alternative therapies are being used by an increasing number of people, and next weekend the Natural Healing Exhibition comes to Chilford Hall in Linton. Lisa Millard spoke to Graham Lee, who has given up 40 cigarettes a day with the help of Hypnotherapy. Graham Lee has smoked 40 cigarettes a day for most of his life. The 51 year old car salesman from Quy started smoking when he was 12 and all attempts to give up the demon weed had failed.
"As well as forty fags a day I'd smoke five or six cigars as well" says Graham "I've tried patches and gum but they did absolutely no good at all. And they are expensive. And the gum tastes horrible." Graham says his £120 investment in nicotine patches did not pay off and his 40-a-day habit was costing him about £140 per month. He does not describe himself as a man who is particularly open to the world of alternative therapies and admits to a certain amount of skepticism. But when he heard that a couple of his friends had given smoking with the help of Hypnotherapy, he decided to give it a go.
"I went to see Robert Kelly in Cambridge. I wasn't nervous about it but I certainly didn't think it would work. Nothing else had - so why should this?" He turned up early for his appointment at the Beechwood Practice so went and had a coffee at the café around the corner from the Hills Road surgery. "That's where I smoked my last cigarette," says Graham who has not lit up now for more than two weeks. "I was there for forty minutes and he just talked to me about how I didn't need to smoke and how I was not addicted."
"I sat in an armchair and closed my eyes but it wasn't like you see on television. I didn't go into a trance and I could hear what he was saying to me all the time. He told me that I just didn't need cigarettes." When the session , which cost £90, was over, Graham says he felt a little bit strange but knew exactly where he was. "I walked into that room a life long smoker, and walked out a non smoker. My friends thought I was barmy. They offered me cigarettes and I would just say "no thanks, I don't smoke".
Graham has not given up his regular visits to his local pub where he drinks with his friend who continues to be a heavy smoker. And the presence of his 25 year old son, who is "lighting up all the time" and works in the same office, has not caused Graham to reach for a cigarette. " When they first light up and I get the smell I think that would be nice - but the urge only lasts for a few seconds" Graham says that his wife, who doesn't smoke, is pleased that he has finally given up and that he is even developing typical non-smoking traits. "I can really notice how my friends who smoke, really smell of it. It is a horrible smell but I never noticed it before because I smelt like that myself." "I would definitely recommend anyone try Hypnotherapy. Giving up smoking is hard for anyone but it is definitely easier with Hypnotherapy "
