Changing habits

Dr. Irwin can help individuals change bad habits by using a variety of therapeutic techniques and approaches. Habits are automatic behaviors that can be difficult to change, especially when they have been ingrained over a long period of time. However, with the right support and guidance, it is possible to change these habits and develop healthier behaviors.

​

One approach that Dr. Irwin may use is cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). CBT involves identifying negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to the habit and developing more positive and adaptive ways of thinking and behaving. This may involve breaking the habit down into smaller, more manageable steps, and developing a plan to gradually replace the habit with a healthier behavior.

​

Dr. Irwin may also use motivational interviewing techniques to help individuals identify their reasons for wanting to change the habit and develop their motivation to do so. This may involve exploring the benefits of changing the habit, as well as the potential consequences of continuing with the habit.

​

In addition to these approaches, Dr. Irwin may help individuals to identify triggers that lead to the bad habit and develop strategies to avoid or manage these triggers. This may involve developing alternative behaviors or engaging in activities that provide a sense of reward or satisfaction without relying on the habit.
