How to Quit a Nicotine Habit

One of every two smokers dies from smoking, but on the positive side it is relaxing and helps the smoker cope with stress. The costs seem greater than the benefits, and most people who use nicotine try to quit. Sadly, most relapse.

Deciding to quit smoking, dipping, or other forms of tobacco consumption is not sufficient. You must also prevent relapse. Dr. Bill Dubin has helped smokers and other nicotine addicts quit the habit and prevent relapse for the past 25 years.

Preventing relapse turns out to be more difficult than most people realize. However, there are a wide range of effective strategies. Even if you have relapsed before, paths to good long-term outcome are available to you. For many people hypnosis provides an easy path through the quitting stage. To get a feel for this approach you may download one of our audio files designed to promote Nicotine Cessation for free.

However, the real measure of success is good long-term outcome. Is the person smoking a year later? Bill has dedicated his career to developing tools to prevent relapse, and has written books and presented workshops on the topic.

Those who can travel to our office in Austin, Texas can work directly with Dr. Dubin. The two-hour therapy session is split between hypnotherapy to promote nicotine cessation and relapse prevention treatment to promote good long-term outcome. The fee for this program is $280.
