Smoking
Josh Murray- Hopeful Minds
Psychologist, MA, LLP
It has been shown that cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), combined with a smoking cessation medication (such as the nicotine patch, nicotine gum, and Chantix®, for example), is quite effective for smokers who are motivated to quit. CBT is an evidenced-based psychological treatment that focuses on identifying and changing maladaptive thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that trigger, worsen, and/or maintain a range of problems (such as depression, anxiety, addiction, etc.). Because changing your smoking-related behaviors – and restructuring your thoughts related to smoking urges – is essential to quitting, CBT can effectively be applied to smoking cessation.
An intensive CBT program is typically composed of three phases: preparation, quitting, and maintenance (or relapse prevention).

Success Behavioral Health, Teresa J Lynch
Psychologist, PhD, LP, CCHT, CMHIMP
If smoking or tobacco cessation was just physical withdrawal, it would be easy and over with in one or two weeks, but we know that is not the case. Most people return to smoking at least once long after the physical withdrawal was overcome. For some people psychological approaches are needed. I have been helping people quit smoking using evidence-based cognitive-behavioral therapy and hypnosis for many years. If you are ready to quit for good, give me a call. Additionally, I can help you explore and learn about nutritional and other complementary approaches to help balance and soothe your system and reduce cravings.

Smoking
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.
