Stopping Smoking
Philip Starkman
Registered Psychotherapist, MSW, RSW
In my practice, I provide a supportive and empowering environment for clients seeking to conquer the challenge of stopping smoking. Understanding the complex interplay of habits, emotions, and physical dependency, I employ a holistic approach that includes Mindfulness, the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Role-Playing. This comprehensive strategy is designed to address not just the act of smoking but the underlying triggers and stressors that contribute to tobacco use. Through mindfulness, clients learn to recognize and manage cravings in the moment, while EFT offers a tool for reducing the emotional intensity associated with withdrawal. CBT helps in restructuring thoughts around smoking, and role-playing prepares clients for real-world situations that might otherwise derail their cessation efforts. My role is to guide you through this journey, providing the tools, support, and insights needed to navigate the path to becoming smoke-free, focusing on building resilience, self-awareness, and healthier coping mechanisms for a life of improved well-being and freedom from smoking.

Cynthia Sewell, Embrace Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CH CHyp
Smoking is addictive. Nicotine is addictive. Sure there are lots of really important health reasons to quit, however, the pull to the cigarette is strong. I am certified in Training Enhancement in Applied Counselling and Health (TEACH) from CAMH for tobacco cessation. Quit cold turkey or cut back slowly, both of these are options. Let's talk about it what would be the best fit for you.

As someone who smoked for 16 years, each and every single day I still think about that drag. It takes a clinician who has faced the same demons in order to really understand the complexity of addiction. So let’s work together on tackling this .
