Stopping Smoking
Dr. Cara Bussell, PhD, LLC
Psychologist
Quitting nicotine can be challenging. I provide therapy for adults who are ready to stop or are thinking about making a change. My approach is supportive and nonjudgmental, using evidence-based strategies such as motivational interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and psychoeducation to help you manage cravings, reduce stress, and stay focused on your goals. If you are ready to take steps toward quitting, I invite you to reach out for a free consultation.

Stopping Smoking
Julien Moe
Hypnotherapist, Diploma in Clinical and Applied Hypnosis, Diploma in Life Coaching
I use Dicit hypnotherapy to help you stop smoking. Smoking is not only financially drowning you but it induces health issues. You may wish to quit smoking in time. Now it's your turn. What are you waiting for? Most of my clients quit smoking after one session. The difference between other hypnotherapists and me is that I follow up by psychotherapy to make sure you stay quit. I also teach you how to fight withdrawal symptoms after you quit.

Stopping Smoking
Stuart Hellebrand, M.S., C.Ht.
Hypnotherapist
We've all heard the statement that "smoking kills". At the same time, many of us know someone who has fallen victim to damaging health consequences related to nicotine addiction. Hypnotherapy has proven to be a very successful modality at helping relevant clients become ex-smokers. A former client said it best when writing me the following: “You saved my life by helping me become a non-smoker. It sounds strange to say but I feel like I have two fathers: the one who first gave me life, and the one who gave me the rest of my life.” ~ Jim W.

Smoking can be extremely difficult to stop. Determining the right time to quit is just the first step. Finding adequate replacements, learning your own personal triggers, and developing other coping strategies are some of the ways I can help you to stop smoking.

Pittsburgh's post-steel identity brings civic pride alongside the lingering mental health effects of industrial decline, with therapists frequently addressing grief, economic anxiety, and intergenerational family dynamics rooted in its working-class heritage. The city's medical landscape is anchored by UPMC — one of the largest health systems in the country — and the University of Pittsburgh, both of which maintain extensive mental health training programs and community clinics. Pittsburgh has a growing creative and tech economy attracting young professionals, creating demand for therapists who work with identity, career transitions, and the particular stress of building a life in a city undergoing reinvention. Shadyside, Squirrel Hill, and the South Hills are among the neighborhoods with the strongest concentrations of private practices.
