Quit smoking online
Quit smoking with hypnosis, from home
If you've tried to quit before and it didn't stick, that makes sense. Most methods only address part of the problem. The EPIC Quit Method completely addresses every challenge of quitting, in private hypnosis sessions over Zoom, from anywhere in the US.

Patches, gum, prescriptions, willpower. Most smokers who come to me have tried some mix of them, more than once.
It's not your fault they didn't work. Those methods go after the nicotine. But nicotine is largely out of your body in about 72 hours. What keeps pulling you back beyond that is everything underneath it: the habit, the triggers, the feelings you've been using cigarettes to handle, and the way you see yourself.
Failing to quit smoking isn't a willpower problem. It's a subconscious problem.
That's where hypnosis works.
The four traps
The EPIC Quit Method is built around the four traps that keep people smoking:
- Emotions. Cigarettes become the way you handle stress, boredom, or anxiety.
- Patterns. The morning coffee, the drive home, after meals. Your hand reaches for a cigarette before you consciously decide to smoke.
- Identity. As long as you see yourself as a smoker trying to quit, just one bad day pulls you back.
- Cravings. The urge feels like a growing fire needing to be put out. It doesn't, once your subconscious stops treating it like an emergency.
The EPIC Quit Method program hands you the keys to escape all four smoking traps.
Does hypnosis work as well over Zoom?
Yes. The eyes-closed part of an online session is nearly identical to being in my office. You hear my voice, you follow along, and the work happens the same way.
All you need is a quiet space where nobody will interrupt you for about an hour and a half, and a phone or computer with a camera. Some clients do their sessions from a parked car, because it's the one place nobody comes knocking.

How it works
It starts with a free 30-minute consultation. I'll ask about your smoking history, what you've tried, and what's gotten in the way. Then you can ask me anything you want. If we're a good fit, we can get you started right there on the call. If it isn't a fit, I'll be upfront and point you in a better direction.
From there:
- Private sessions over Zoom, usually about a week apart, sometimes closer if you've got a difficult environment at home or work
- Hypnosis recordings to listen to for reinforcement between sessions
- Techniques for cravings and stress you can use anytime, anywhere, and no one will know you're doing anything
- A way to reach me by text or email if something comes up
Lifetime support is part of the program when you complete all of your sessions. If you ever need to come back for a tune-up, you can at no additional charge.
Since 2015
More than a thousand smokers have come to me to quit. Most of them are still non-smokers. Not all of them. The people who follow the program completely are the ones who quit.
Shannon came to me smoking two and a half packs a day. She's been smoke-free for years.
The research points the same way. In one small study of a three-session hypnosis program, 81% of smokers were smoke-free when the program ended, and 48% still were a year later (Elkins & Rajab, 2004).
Ready to be done with it?
