Tobacco treatment is offered on a monthly basis starting the first Monday of every month either at 5:00PM or 7: 00PM. Groups are based in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and are led by a master level Tobacco Treatment Specialist. Three weeks are spent preparing the group members to quit, everyone quits together the fourth week of the program and then the group meets again three additional sessions to discuss relapse prevention. Groups are six weeks long with one extra session 48 hours after quitting.One year of follow-up is also included. The cost of the group is $125.00 for all sessions and the one year of follow-up.
Anyone interested in quitting any form of tobacco may join. Group or individual counseling along with one of the seven FDA approved quit aids has been proven to be most effective in staying quit in the long term.
If group number is not sufficient or the group day or time can not be met, Ms. Preston Rahim can also meet individually. The price is comparable to the group rate however may change depending on the number of sessions needed.
