Gambling
Rita El Alaoui
Hypnotherapist, Hypnotherapy diploma, reiki master diploma.
I help the subconscious realize that gambling was being used as an escape, a stress release, or a search for a "high"and guide it toward healthy, natural alternatives using Ericksonian tools like fast-rewinding memories of winning or installing physical calming anchors to disrupt the automatic "chasing losses" loop so cravings lose their power.

Rob McClintock Counselling
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Dip Counselling ACA, Clinical Hypnotherapist ASCH,
Gambling addiction can destroy relationships, finances, and self-worth, trapping you in a cycle of shame, lies, and the desperate hope that the next bet will fix everything. The secrecy and isolation make it even harder to break free. As someone who understands addiction intimately, I know that willpower alone isn't enough to overcome the compulsive urges that drive gambling behaviour. My approach to gambling addiction uses Subconscious Dynamics™ to address the underlying emotional triggers, unresolved trauma, and psychological patterns that fuel the need to gamble. We work to rewire the neural pathways that create the rush and escapism gambling provides, replacing them with healthier coping mechanisms and genuine fulfilment. This holistic, medication-free method helps you reclaim control over your life and rebuild the trust and stability that gambling has taken away.

Canberra is Australia's purpose-built capital city and home to the federal public service, creating a therapy landscape shaped by the particular stresses of government work — including burnout, moral injury, and careers lived in close proximity to political power. The city has the highest median income and education level of any Australian capital, with a population generally comfortable seeking therapy and willing to engage in longer-term work. Canberra Hospital provides institutional mental health services alongside a well-established private practice community serving the inner south, Belconnen, and Tuggeranong. A recurring theme across many Canberra practices is the tension between personal values and the constraints of institutional work — a dynamic that cuts across much of the city's therapy culture.
