Gambling
Dr. Sharareh Namjoo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctor of Psychology
Problem gambling can affect finances, relationships, self-esteem, and emotional well-being. The cycle of urges, secrecy, losses, and attempts to recover money can create intense shame and distress, but these struggles do not define your character.
I provide compassionate, nonjudgmental support to help clients understand their triggers, interrupt harmful patterns, manage urges, and develop healthier ways of coping with stress and difficult emotions. Together, we create practical safeguards, rebuild trust, and work toward greater stability, accountability, and freedom.

Julien Moe
Hypnotherapist, Diploma in Clinical and Applied Hypnosis, Diploma in Life Coaching
Addiction destroys everybody. Research finds that losing can trigger a release of dopamine to almost the same extent as winning, which is why you may stay in the casino after dropping a few hands. Your body also produces adrenalin and pleasurable endorphins throughout the win/lose gambling cycle. All my clients with this disorder are getting resilient in no time due to Dicit hypnotherapy. Now it's your turn. I use Dicit hypnotherapy for your resilience and recovery. Get ready to quit gambling once and for all.

Gambling can quickly become tied to stress, secrecy, financial pressure, shame, or feeling out of control.
