John Zavaglia (Mind LIfe)
Counsellor/Therapist, ACA Registered, PC Grad MHN & Neuro, MBA
Gambling can gradually take more control than you intended, affecting your finances, relationships, confidence and peace of mind. You may want to stop or regain control but find yourself caught in the same cycle. Together, we can understand what's driving the behaviour, recognise the patterns and develop practical ways to regain control, rebuild confidence and move forward.

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.

Gambling can quickly become tied to stress, shame, secrecy or feeling out of control. I support clients to understand their triggers, reduce harm and build practical steps toward healthier choices.
