Roderic Burks - Integrative Mental Health
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MS, MS HSc, MA, LMHC, LPC
Gambling can become a way to cope with stress, emotional pain, or unmet needs. I help clients explore the underlying patterns and emotions driving this behavior, rather than focusing only on the habit itself. Together, we build healthier coping strategies, self-awareness, and a more balanced, purposeful life.

Marc Donegan, Psychotherapist
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychodynamic Analysis & Transactional Analysis, PACFA, BACP, ITTA, EATA, UKATA
Compulsive gambling usually serves a psychological function, whether that’s escape, control, or managing underlying anxiety or stress. I work with clients to understand what the behaviour is doing for them and build sustainable alternatives, alongside addressing any financial or relational impact where relevant.
