Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Gambling addiction and its offshoots such as crypto trading and sports betting are one of the hardest addiction to break. To get free from addiction an addict has to tell themselves and others the truth. By the time an addict has brought themselves to be truthful about their Gambling addiction, they have gambled away the family house, the family 401k, etc. Telling the truth is so excruciating that many never do it and therefore never recover.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP
I work with adults affected by gambling, both those who gamble themselves and those living alongside a partner or family member’s gambling. Gambling can organise relationships around secrecy, volatility, financial strain, and repeated cycles of hope and disappointment, often leaving people unsure how to respond or where responsibility lies.
My work draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to understand how gambling functions within an individual or family system, and what roles different people may have been pulled into over time. Sessions focus on clarity, boundaries, and the emotional impact of gambling, rather than quick solutions or pressure toward change. We may work through conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both, depending on what feels most useful.

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.

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.
