Certified Clinical Hypnotherapy
Many hypnotists work with every topic but practice only one technique, a relaxing "Trance." Frank Oden works with only one topic - smoking - and practices Ericksonian Hypnotherapy which can include (but doesn't require) trance as well as conversational, subliminal, indirect and "micro-trance" hypnotic techniques.
Mindfulness & Philosophical Psychology
Humans have the automatic ability to make instant and permanent decisions when outcomes are clearly aligned with deeply held beliefs. Frank Oden is a skilled communicator of Positive Psychology, Stoic Philosophy, Mindfulness-Based Contemplative Therapy and most personal faith traditions.
Peer Specialist Expertise
As a former heavy tobacco and marijuana smoker for 30 years, with countless failed attempts to quit, Frank Oden has a previous lifetime's worth of personal immersion in the smoker's experience - the mindset, stories, fears, attitudes, cravings and conflicts. We Speak Smoker.
"As human beings, our greatest weapon against stress
is the ability to choose one thought over another."

"Frank was warm and open as he greeted each nervous guest...(He) began speaking in a relaxed tone that was effortless and organic, not put on for any “hip hypnotist” affect. Expert in his subject and learned in his craft, Frank’s wry humor peppered his story as he gently led us down the garden path of our own addiction, revealing what an absolutely absurd mind game we’d been playing on ourselves. He was logical. He was truthful. And he was an engaging myth-buster speaking to each one of us personally, guiding us back to our power. -- Tracy Shaffer, Telluride Inside

HypNoSmoke is primarily a drug-free approach to stopping nicotine or THC, though clients who wish to use cessation medications and/or NRT can still find benefit from the coaching. Many clients have used the HypNoSmoke process to stop vaping, e-cigs, nicotine gum and/or patch as well as immediate cessation and complete abstinence for Cannabis/THC.
That smoker who "just quit" one day, and said it was easy?
They did it with one or more (maybe all) of these tools.
Smokers tend to assume that aversive ideas and images about smoking are the best motivations to quit. But negative motivators like fear will quickly fade once a change has been made. Use valid strategies for creating long term self-motivation.
We prefer ideas that support existing views. As smokers we collected "proof" of need and desire (addiction, craving, failure). A nonsmoker rejects those false ideas and acts on facts that support nonsmoking. Choose your information policy wisely.
A smoker who is trying to quit thinks, "I want to smoke but I can't." Smokers are so familiar with that feeling they imagine nonsmoking as a lifetime of deprivation. A nonsmoker thinks, "I could smoke anytime I want to, but I don't want to."
Optimist / Pessimist choices may reflect situation over character. Were you thirsty or drowning when you saw the glass of water? Bad experiences can create pessimistic views and vice versa. Applied optimism is the strategic antidote.
Constantly reminding and scolding yourself and picking "Willpower" battles is an ineffective, punishing grind. But we never struggle at all when we're getting what we want. Know what you want and why and how to get it. Be certain that you will.
With the other five concepts in place, there's no battle to fight, no need for strength or resistance. When you know that something is easily done with simple skills you already possess, you do it with a relaxed and positive expectation of success.
"The basic tools and methods I teach rely on simple, common sense mental skills possessed by nearly every person. It costs you nothing to apply such techniques in your own mind, your own life - in fact, most of these mental tools have been in common use by humans for over 2000 years.” -- Frank Oden
With a 30 year past as a heavy tobacco and marijuana smoker, 13 years as a stop-smoking clinician and hypnotherapist, a life's career in public speaking and 15,000 hours coaching individual smokers and groups of all sizes, Denver psychotherapist, tobacco cessation expert and NLP master trainer Frank Oden combines Neuro-Linguistic persuasion skills with proven cognitive behavioral techniques in a compelling single-session process that has guided thousands of former nicotine and THC users to rapid and lasting success.
As clinician, speaker, author and coach, Oden is skilled communicator of the true nature of smoking, the intricacies of "the smoker mindset," and the role of language in self-directed behavior change.
