How can counseling or therapy help me stop smoking?

When you meet with someone who then takes an inventory of questions on you and your smoking behavior, they can tailor their recommendations to your needs, as opposed to eight or twelve people in a group who all come together where it needs to be more generic, and more general. If you have tried other methods, you might want to say, "I'd like to just work with someone who can help me figure out what my triggers are for smoking, where my roadblocks are, where are the barriers that keep tripping me up?" Make sure it's someone who has a significant length of experience in this field and has adequate training.
