Best Hypnosis To Quit Smoking Calgary Near Me

4worldlovers: Welcome! I’m Chris Barry and I’m a certified hypnotherapist and mental trainer. My goal is to help you to learn the power of your mind and in turn, help empower you to reach your goals, deal with negative experiences and make positive changes in your life. I specialize in helping clients deal with stress and anxiety but can also help with smoking cessation, insomnia, weight loss, improved sports performance, and so much more.

I have been a consulting hypnotist since mid-2009, when I moved to Calgary from Winnipeg. I have trained in various forms of hypnosis relating to therapy, originally as a graduate of the Calgary Hypnosis Academy. I have also trained in other hypnosis modalities, such as street and stage performance. I started my therapeutic hypnosis practice in 2010, had my first stage show in 2012, and started doing public street hypnosis in 2014.

For me, when you’re doing something you enjoy, the most important thing is to keep learning! There are many ways therapeutic hypnosis can be applied to a person’s situation; I’ve studied and consulted with other practitioners to be as well-educated as I can be so I can provide the most fitting help and assistance to my clients. I’m an executive member of the Hypnosis Society of Alberta, a regular attendee of the largest Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Hypnosis group in Calgary. I’m also a member in good standing of several hypnotist organizations, most notably the National Guild of Hypnotists (NGH) and I also enjoy being a street performer hypnotist. All of these have provided me with great learning experiences, training and of course, practice – all of which you will benefit from.

Hypnotherapy is an extremely versatile tool which specializes in dealing with problems that are ultimately rooted in the subconscious. Problems with memory, bad habits, harmful behaviors, self-improvement are all areas hypnosis is excellent at improving including:

She is also a certified Reiki Master, practitioner of Core Belief Engineering, Emotional Freedom Technique(EFT) and The Tapas Acupressure Technique.

Dr. Bob Levenson and his partner Kim have the special education and advanced hypnosis training to remove obstacles that are stopping you from achieving your goals.Their many happy clients are living proof that unlocking your inner mind power is the key to success. With more than 35 years of combined experience they have seen hundreds of lives literally transformed as their clients eliminate the barriers, fears, and weaknesses that deprive them of happiness and health.

Dr. Bob’s and Kim’s areas of special expertise are:

Developing good eating habits are essential for long-term weight loss. Hypnosis can get you to make healthier food choices and be satisfied with smaller portions. You will also learn how to stop eating when you’re stressed.

Smoking cessation aids such as champix, the patch, and nicorette gum may lessen your nicotine cravings but they do not affect the habit. Hypnosis is designed to eliminate the habit and neutralize common triggers such as having a drink or driving in your car.

If flying, encountering spiders or bees or being in an elevator terrifies you, the solution is changing the way you think at the subconscious level. Hypnosis can help you control intense fear and restore your confidence. Instead of panicking, you will be able to remain calm and composed.

“For my entire life, my life was ruled by food. I constantly thought about food 24/7 and had a voracious appetite that I couldn’t satisfy. After 1 or 2 hypnosis sessions with Dr. Levenson, my obsession with food was gone and I finally had control over my eating habits. The immediate results were astounding and after 3 months, I’m still enjoying the positive, enormous shift it has made in my life. I can’t thank Dr. Levenson enough.”

“When I visited Dr. Bob five years ago to help me quit smoking I was full of fear that I wouldn’t be able to be successful in quitting. After the session, I threw my cigarettes away and never looked back. I’m a non-smoker who has never experienced cravings. I’m free from the bondage of this addiction. No more ball and chain for me. I’ve referred Dr. Bob to several coaching clients and friends who have also experienced great success.”

“I was desperate to find some way to enjoy flying again. I tried anti-anxiety drugs, but I just felt dizzy and still afraid on the plane. I heard of hypnotherapy for weight loss or stop smoking, maybe it would work for my fear of flying. I met with Dr. Levenson who was so kind and made me feel comfortable right away. After 2 sessions I already felt different and when I was on the plane to Cuba, it was like I never had the fear. I would recommend going for hypnotherapy for any problem that haunts you. Dr. Levenson is amazing. I can’t wait to go on my next trip.”

Lynn Lambert specializes in the treatment of phobias and anxiety using a combination of therapies, including counseling, hypnotherapy, and EMDR. Anxiety works against us to prevent us from achieving our most important goals by feeding us a constant cycle of negative self-talk. When we are caught up inside of it, it is extremely difficult to find perspective and this is where speaking with an experienced professional can help you to regain control.


Smoking can be more than a habit. It can be an addiction that exposes you, and those around you, to the risk of life-threatening conditions. Quitting smoking can be extremely difficult for some people. This is because this addiction involves both physical and behavioral elements. The Be a Non-Smoker Now Program consists of important steps that are required to ensure the greatest degree of success. Lynn offers several options for the treatment of smoking addiction including counselling and hypnotherapy, small group seminars, and a Be a Nonsmoker Now audio recording.

Most athletes find hypnosis easy to relate to, as it is similar to commonly used imagery and relaxation techniques. Like all athletic training, it is highly structured and applies a series of specific techniques to achieve specific, measurable, and timely results. Hypnosis is also similar to physical training in the way it is specifically tailored to the individual; it can strengthen the techniques you already use to improve confidence, focus, and relaxation during competition.

"For 50 years of my life when I would self-sabotage I had no idea what I was doing and I thought that was me. But it's not me, it's a glitch.... What I really like is that I'm not held hostage to it anymore." — Kat F.

Kat's first visit to Lynn was motivated by her desire for a major lifestyle change. She wanted to be healthier and in better shape and knew what she had to do, but she couldn't overcome her aversion to stepping inside of a gym. Since going to see Lynn, she has dramatically changed her lifestyle. She says, "I feel younger now than I did probably 20 years ago, because I can get on a horse, I can jump out of an airplane, I can sea kayak and canoe and row and I know that my physical body is going to carry me through it, because I've been able to overcome that one little block that seemed so insignficant, but it's huge. I feel capable and I feel like there is nothing to hold me back, and that's the catharsis."

Watch Kat discuss her experience with Lynn in the video below:

Lynn is a gifted therapist with a superb ability to listen and feed back information in a way that helps me understand, makes me rethink, and helps me make changes. I most appreciate her ability to intuitively discern just what intervention I most need. She seems to have a large kit bag of techniques to draw on and seems to be able to pick just the right one that will help me get past the block I am facing. I came to Lynn for help with pain management but have received much more than that. I have been able not only to minimise pain but to rid myself of fears that were holding me back. I’d highly recommend Lynn’s work to anyone who wants to grow and improve. — Lyle L., Consultant

4worldlovers: "When I came in to see Meera for my consultation I told her simply that I was tired of being afraid, and because I was afraid I was stuck. I was afraid of everything, from social situations to taking any risks or taking advantage of opportunities at work. I had this negative tape recorder running in my head constantly telling me your not good enough, don't talk because what your going to say is not worth hearing, don't try because you can't do it. I asked her if she could help me, and she looked at me and said yes I can. I started to cry because I really didn't think it could happen. When you live in that constant flight mentality it takes such a toll on your emotional, and physical state. My hypnotherapy sessions have focused on self confidence, and visualizing myself as a confident, creative, intelligent woman. The sessions have been very successful. The negative tape recorder in my head has stopped and I feel a peace that I have never felt. That is priceless. I have also been blessed to connect with loved ones on the other side during my sessions. I felt a love from them that knows no bounds. I have a very hard time describing it, but it felt awesome. I will continue my sessions because now I have seen the power of the subconscious, and I want to tap into that. Meera you are an amazing, caring individual, and I believe you have been placed in my life to help me. There are no coincidences in life, and I am so happy we have been brought together. I would recommend to anyone to try hypnotherapy, for any type of issues you might be experiencing in your life. The only thing you need to bring is a open mind & a willingness to change. Thank you Meera."

“Sharing how Meera has and continues to help me is something I can't put into words. I feel like the fog has lifted and I'm excited about life again. She helps me work through grief and trauma, and identifies distorted and fear based thinking. She gives me tools and information that is profound on my healing journey. My friend who quit smoking with Meera's help referred me, and I am very grateful.”

"Meera has helped me overcome so many triggers in the last 2 years. I can not reccommend her enough. She is patient, helpful, and will always send you home with resources to use between your sessions to assist your mental health journey."

"I went to see Meera for anxiety issues. I was very interested in hypnotherapy and am very happy I decided to go through with it. I was a little bit nervous about it at first but Meera makes you feel so comfortable and explains everything so clearly, nothing to be nervous about at all! I am amazed at how easy and empowering the sessions are. I found that it has helped me immensely! Would highly recommend Meera and hypnotherapy to people with anxiety."

"Meera is very supportive and a great listener. It was nice to have a safe place to process my journey and look forward to future sessions with her. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a good counsellor."

"After 10+ years of being the go-to driver for all road trips, driving being something I truly enjoyed, things began to change. It was a very slow change, slow enough that I could easily sweep these growing issues under the rug. I started driving less and less. I felt extremely lost going from a confident driver to someone who was anxious hours before having to get into a vehicle. As soon as I met Meera, before I even knew what these sessions would look like, I felt hope. She has this aura about her that makes you feel safe and see things in a different perspective. After a few sessions I had a lot of confidence back when it came to my driving. I would say our sessions positively affected even more than my driving; it has improved my confidence in every other aspect of my life. Thank you Meera!"

"I've quit smoking many times but was always unable to stay quit. I went to Meera looking for a long term solution. I really appreciate she suggested we deal with a couple of things first to get into the right space - when I did quit, it went remarkably well. I'm now 1-year smoke-free and I can "feel in my bones" that I'll never go back. So liberating! I've now come back to Meera to deal with other issues. Hypnotherapy has been surprisingly effective and Meera is so patient and compassionate she makes it easy."
