Chris Doorley
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, MA
Smoking cessation, like most substance use habits, is about finding out what drives cravings, and how to minimize and manage cravings without picking up again every time they arise. Essentially, I approach this the same way I do meditation— practice noticing what you notice so you can then practice responding thoughtfully, not reacting impulsively; responsiveness replaces reactivity... with a little practice.

Salinas is the county seat of Monterey County and the birthplace of John Steinbeck, a city with a majority Latino population deeply rooted in the agricultural economy of the Salinas Valley, and a mental health landscape shaped by the significant challenges of agricultural labor, immigration stress, gang violence in some neighborhoods, and limited access to culturally and linguistically appropriate care. Spanish-language therapy is essential here, and the demand for bilingual practitioners who understand the specific stressors of farmworker and immigrant community life significantly outpaces supply. Natividad Medical Center, a county-run hospital, provides some behavioral health services, and community health organizations supplement what is a relatively limited private therapy sector. Common therapy concerns include trauma, family separation stress, anxiety, depression, and the intergenerational challenges faced by a community navigating the intersection of a demanding agricultural economy and evolving cultural identity.
