Manupriya Mehra
Licensed Professional Counsellor, (RTC)(ACCT), C.HypTM -Trauma Specialist, B.A., M.A. Psychology ( India)
Quitting smoking can be challenging, especially when it is connected to stress, emotional regulation, or long-standing habits. I support individuals who are motivated to reduce or stop smoking by helping them understand the emotional and behavioral patterns linked to nicotine use.
My approach focuses on strengthening self-awareness, building healthier coping strategies, and increasing motivation for change. Where appropriate, supportive techniques such as mindfulness and guided relaxation may be integrated to help manage cravings and stress. The process is paced, respectful, and tailored to each individual’s readiness and goals.

Stuart Hellebrand, M.S., C.Ht.
Hypnotherapist
We've all heard the statement that "smoking kills". At the same time, many of us know someone who has fallen victim to damaging health consequences related to nicotine addiction. Hypnotherapy has proven to be a very successful modality at helping relevant clients become ex-smokers. A former client said it best when writing me the following: “You saved my life by helping me become a non-smoker. It sounds strange to say but I feel like I have two fathers: the one who first gave me life, and the one who gave me the rest of my life.” ~ Jim W.
