Quitting smoking can be easy with an effective method to reduce and cope with urges to smoke.

The smoking habit is viewed as learnt behaviour. The goal of Cognitive-behavioral treatment is learning new more effective behaviours to take the place of addiction behaviours.

Cognitive behavioral therapy for quitting smoking focuses on changing people’s reactions to their thoughts of smoking. This occurs through changing thoughts and behaviours.

The transformation comes by examing the patterns and triggers which lead to smoking and then learning more effective patterns and behaviours.

Identify the functions that smoking serves, and replacing the smoking with other healthier habits and behaviours that serve the same function.

Additionally, behavioural training in mindfulness and emotion regulations skills can be helpful in coping with particularly strong urges.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many sessions will I need?

Most people stop with just one session, but very occasionally someone may need two sessions. Unlike many other issues like weight loss or anxiety disorders the results for quitting smoking will be immediate.

What is your success rate?

The method is extremely effective and efficient. We have an excellent success rate. I ask everyone to contact me after the session to let us know how they are getting on and keep a record. Out of 100 clients maybe 3 to 4 require a backup session.

I’ve tried patches and nicotine chewing gum and they did not work?

With patches etc. the nicotine is still getting into your system. Smoking is a habit and a psychological addiction which is why hypnosis is so effective with this problem. Hypnotherapy has is more effective than other methods nicotine chewing gum or patches. Hypnotherapy does not have any harmful side effects. The thought of stopping smoking is much harder than actually doing it, which is why people find it difficult to do on their own.

Will I still get the cravings afterward?

Most of my clients do not have cravings after the hypnotherapy. The goal of hypnosis is to make you feel extremely proud and positive about being a non-smoker.

The passing thought of a cigarette is not the same as a craving. During hypnotherapy, I will give you suggestions that will enable you to make that distinction and replace any negative thoughts with positive ones.

I went to someone once before and it didn’t work?

There could be a number of reasons why it didn’t work for you – maybe you were not ready or maybe you were nervous. I always work with my clients until they are confident they are a non-smoker for life.

Statistics on Smoking in Australia

Tobacco smoking is the largest single preventable cause of death and disease in Australia (Cancer Council 2006).
Smoking is a key risk factor for the three diseases that cause most deaths in Australia: ischaemic heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, and lung
Smokers are also at increased risk of developing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and reduced lung function (DoHA 2006).
Smoking is responsible for around 80% of all lung cancer deaths and 20% of all cancer deaths (smoking has been linked to cancers of the mouth, bladder, kidney, stomach and cervix, among others) (DoHA 2006).
The 2003 Australian Burden of Disease Study indicates that tobacco smoking was second behind overweight among the leading causes of the burden of disease in Australia.
It was estimated that tobacco smoking was responsible for about 8% of the total burden of disease and injury for all Australians (9.5% of total for males and 6.1% of total for females) (AIHW 2006: Begg et al in press).
People who start smoking when they are young are more likely to smoke heavily, to become more dependent on nicotine and to be at increased risk of smoking-related illness or death (McDermott, Russell and Dobson 2002).
The breathing in of tobacco smoke by non-smokers can lead to harmful health effects in the unborn child, and middle ear infections and bronchitis, pneumonia, asthma and other chest conditions in children. It is also linked to sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).
In adults, passive smoking can increase the risk of heart disease, lung cancer and other chronic lung diseases (Queensland Health 2006).
Overall, only 45% of current smokers reported very good or excellent health, compared to 57% of ex-smokers and 60% of those who reported never smoking, after adjusting for age differences. As well at any age, the proportion of current smokers who rated their health as fair or poor was substantially higher for each age group than that for those who never smoked.
Smokers also reported higher levels of psychological distress. About 20% of current smokers reported high or very high levels of psychological distress, compared to only 10% of those who had never smoked, after adjusting for age differences.
Smokers had higher levels of respiratory disease than those who had never smoked. For example, 4% of current smokers reported bronchitis and 11% reported asthma, after adjusting for age differences. Corresponding proportions for those who never smoked were lower at 2% and 9% respectively.

The most recent estimates of deaths caused by tobacco were published by Ridolfo and Stevenson (2001). According to the study;

15% of all deaths (approximately 19,000 deaths) were due to tobacco smoking in 1998.
Of these, approximately 13,000 were male deaths and 6,000 were female deaths.
Most of these deaths (around 14,800) occurred at older ages, but a substantial number (around 4,200) occurred at ages under 65 years.
Cancer was responsible for 40% of these tobacco-related deaths, the majority of which were lung cancer.
Ischaemic heart disease (also known as coronary heart disease), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and other causes (including stroke) were responsible for the remaining 60% of tobacco-related deaths.
