JCS
Addictions Clinic
The Stop Smoking Program
Free consultation and assessment
Each
client will be scheduled for an individual consultation and assessment
session prior to participating in the program. Information obtained
during this session will be used to develop a treatment plan for the
client based on the client's individual strengths, needs and smoking
history.
Education
Each client will participate in addiction education sessions. Addiction
education will consist of: Signs and symptoms of nicotine addiction,
the physiological and psychological aspects of nicotine addiction, cravings
intervention, the identification of smoking triggers and effective interventions
and weight management. A very intense focus will be placed on relapse
prevention.
