We usually provide sessions at our venue, but on request we can come to a venue of your choice (travel and accommodation costs will be additional). We cater for one-on-one and group sessions for individuals and corporate clients. Group sessions accommodate 8-15 people, run from 9 am until 3 pm and cost $550 (incl. GST and payable two weeks in advance). Most smokers need only one session to become a happy non-smoker, however booster sessions are available if required at no additional cost. Refreshments are provided. You need to bring your cigarettes because there are smoking breaks throughout the session – and, bring an open mind! Directions on how to get there and payment details are provided when you make your booking. Visit our web site allencarr.com.au for more details about the Queensland clinics and search You Tube for Allen Carr to view a range of video clips about the method, the clinic sessions and Allen Carr himself.

Allen Carr was a chain smoker for thirty years. After countless failed attempts to quit using willpower and other methods, he went from a hundred-cigarette-a-day addiction to zero without the slightest ill effects. He even enjoyed the process. To Allen, this was a revelation. He then analysed why it seemed so difficult to quit smoking previously and by this analytical process, generated ingenious insights into the “nicotine trap”. He made it his purpose in life to use these insights to help other smokers to quit. After commencing his clinic in London in 1983 and publishing his book ALLEN CARR’S EASY WAY TO STOP SMOKING, his reputation grew rapidly and people began flying to London from all over the world to attend his clinics. Today, his network of clinics spans the globe with 100 locations in 38 countries. His book has been a best seller every year since publication in 1987, selling more than 10 million copies and is translated into 27 languages - visit allencarr.com.au for more info.

THREE DIFFERENT WAYS TO EXPERIENCE THE ALLEN CARR METHOD This question boils down to the fact that science has shown people learn, absorb information (and alter their beliefs as a result) in a variety of different ways. Some need the real-time interaction with other people and need to ask questions and have them answered authoritatively so any doubts or misunderstandings can be eliminated (the 5-6 hour clinic session). Others can glean sufficient information by reading the book (or listening to the audio book) and need no further stimulus. Others prefer the concise audio visual stimulus when watching the TV (watching Allen Carr’s DVD). So in a nutshell, they are all just different ways to explain Allen Carr's method and each is effective in it's own right. You are free to choose which suits you best! They are all easy!

When smokers try to stop smoking (with or without the use of aids such as nicotine patches, gum or acupuncture) most feel a sense of anxiety and trepidation. This is because, when they try to stop, smokers feel deprived of their crutch or pleasure. In this state of mind smokers invariably experience difficult withdrawal pangs, become miserable and even depressed. This eventually leads smokers back to their crutch – to start smoking again. The phenomenal success of Allen Carr’s method comes from the ability of professionally trained therapists to remove the fears which lie at the heart of a smoker’s resistance to quitting. It is the fear that life will not be as enjoyable or that smokers won’t be able to cope with stressful or demanding situations without cigarettes or the fear that you have to suffer a terrible trauma to get free. Using Allen Carr’s ingenious insight therapists explain exactly how the nicotine trap works and so remove the psychological dependency, making it easy!
