Smoking
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.

Visalia is the county seat of Tulare County in California's Central Valley, a region that is both one of the world's most productive agricultural areas and one of California's most underserved communities for mental health care, with a majority Latino population whose access to Spanish-language therapy is severely limited relative to need. The agricultural economy creates specific mental health challenges around seasonal employment, farmworker labor conditions, heat-related stress, and the immigration anxieties common across the San Joaquin Valley. Kaweah Health provides the primary hospital-based behavioral health services, and a private therapy sector serves the more affluent parts of the population. Common therapy concerns include depression, anxiety, agricultural and economic stress, immigration and family separation trauma, and the significant barriers to care created by language access issues and a shortage of Spanish-speaking therapists in a region where the majority of residents speak Spanish at home.
