Jim Mason
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, ICADC, CCAC
Problem gambling is not just about losing money. Gambling problems can affect a person’s whole life. Gambling is a problem when it gets in the way of work, school or other activities, harms your mental or physical health, hurts you financially, damages the person’s reputation, or causes problems with family or friends.
As a Canadian Certified Addiction Counsellor, I offer specialized therapy to help individuals address addictive behaviours. I emphasize a compassionate approach through various cognitive therapies, including CBT. CBT focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns and behaviours that contribute to problem gambling. If you're ready, I invite you to book a free 15-minute phone consultation to explore how I can support you.

With the psychodynamic approach, the client will know the causes and roots that led him to his problem; for what it is necessary an in-depth analysis of the personality by putting greater focus on the current and past experiences. This will give the client the opportunity to build a new present and future understanding and identifying triggers and own emotions.

Kevin Jones
Psychologist, MACP
My approach to treating problem gambling is grounded in evidence-based practices that address both the underlying drivers and the behavioural patterns that keep individuals stuck in the cycle. I begin by helping clients understand the emotional, cognitive, and situational triggers that lead to gambling urges, while teaching practical skills to reduce impulsivity and regain control. Using a blend of cognitive-behavioural strategies, motivational enhancement, and harm-reduction techniques, I supports clients in rebuilding healthier coping mechanisms, repairing financial or relational impacts, and strengthening long-term resilience. My work is collaborative, non-judgmental, and focused on empowering clients to create sustainable change at a pace that feels safe and achievable.

Edmonton's northern location and long, dark winters contribute significantly to seasonal depression and mood challenges, making therapists with expertise in SAD and mood disorders particularly sought after. The city's economy is closely tied to the energy sector, and residents face the psychological ripple effects of boom-bust economic cycles including job instability and financial anxiety. Edmonton has a large Indigenous population, and therapists offering trauma-informed, culturally grounded care for First Nations, Métis, and Inuit clients are especially valued here. Alberta Health Services provides public mental health access, with a growing private practice community serving the city's expanding southern and west-end neighbourhoods.
