Psychologist, Ph.D.
I do not do hypnosis. It's popular, but only about 15% of people quit this way. What I do is right around 50% effective: Stimulus control plus the patch. This combination helps with the both the habit and the nicotine addiction. Stimulus control involves assessing which stimuli trigger a smoke (alcohol, coffee, after dinner, in your car) and using that information to break the connection. Plus there's a few other tricks up my sleeve including, but not limited to, relaxation and acceptance strategies.

Smoking is a very bad habit these days and it seems that the companies are finding new and more interesting ways to keep their customers doing it. With most of my clients stopping after just one session, let me guide you through a three session therapy that pulls that smoking habit from the root. Never to return.

Aria Fraser
Hypnotherapist, Certified Rapid Transformational Therapist
Smokers are often afraid of what will happen to them and what kinds of changes will occur if they quit smoking, and they might have one or more of these beliefs: 'I'm addicted to nicotine', 'It helps me cope with stress/weight/boredom', 'I'm not strong enough to quit or cope without it'. Using Rapid Transformational Therapy, a smoker is assisted to 'rewire' their mind to associate disgust or psychological pain toward smoking, as opposed to the desire to smoke. The need to have any addiction usually originates from an unconscious belief that a person does not feel like they are enough deep down. This belief is created by the mind based on experiences in a person's early life, making the brain think that an addiction can fill the need to feel enough. RTT gets to the root of the beliefs, where they can then be reframed, interrupted, released, then replaced with beneficial beliefs. A person's pattern of thought is changed by creating beliefs that are positive and empowering, to form a feeling of pleasure from breathing fresh air, saving money, becoming healthier, etc. The mind is being changed at the subconscious level, meaning that quitting does not require one's willpower alone (though some is needed). Ongoing support after the session will be available.

St. Petersburg has undergone rapid transformation as an arts and culture hub, attracting young creatives, LGBTQ+ residents, and a growing tech community, and therapists here frequently work with identity exploration, life transitions, and the pressures of building an unconventional career in a mid-size city. The city has a well-established LGBTQ+ community centered around the Grand Central District, and affirming therapists are well represented relative to the city's size. St. Anthony's Hospital and Orlando Health Bayfront Hospital provide institutional mental health resources alongside a growing private practice community. Many St. Pete therapists serve clients across the wider Tampa Bay area, making the region's therapeutic resources interconnected regardless of which side of the bay clients live on.
