Thinking about stopping smoking and would like:

~ someone there just for you
~ to stop smoking at your own pace
~ a programme tailor-made to suit your needs and temperament
~ practical tips on how to stop easily and quickly
~ techniques to achieve and maintain what you want
~ to stay stopped without worrying and manage your weight
~ up-to-date information on NRT products and Zyban or flower essences

I am here to:

* support and encourage you in your wish to stop smoking
* let you know of simple ways to help you stop smoking which you can do with relative ease (according to successful quitters)a nd feel really good about yourself
* help you enjoy your life more fully, free of health worries, manage your weight and cope with any crises without cigarettes. This does not depend on willpower
* help you acknowledge and deal with any doubts and fears you may have
* help focus on the ease of stopping.

Five main areas of focus are:

* motivation - how much do you want to succeed?
* your attitude towards yourself and smoking - how much this influences the outcome - either positively or negatively
* your ability to change the way you think about cigarettes - and what they do for you, as well as to you
* resolving mixed feelings that many smokers have about stopping - where part of you wants to stop but part of you doesn't
* commitment to achieving your goal - this involves you devoting a few minutes each day working towards this.

My clients? success rates are high - far above the national average at about 75 per cent at a year - due to learning how to:
~ use the practical tools to help overcome any barriers for good
~ build confidence, self-worth, motivation to succeed
~ resolve any internal conflicts about stopping smoking
~ empower themselves by learning facts about smoking
~ use their imaginative minds positively
~ recognise that success in stopping is much easier with appropriate, professional support.

Research increasingly shows that dealing effectively with the psychological habit of smoking - and not just the physical addiction - tends to be underrated, and that the high relapse rate of 65-75 per cent nationally can occur - even after a year or so - because quitters have not learnt effective ways of dealing with the urge to smoke and setting up adequate long-term support for themselves.

what do I need to do
* You can have coaching face-to-face, by phone and / or e-mail;
after initial, free consultation we agree to a contract - usually six half-hour sessions - and usually weekly - at an agreed time. Further sessions available if required; additional follow-up session(s) highly recommended.
