Todd Deutsch
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Gambling can quickly become tied to stress, secrecy, financial pressure, shame, or feeling out of control. I help clients better understand the patterns and triggers behind gambling behavior, strengthen healthier coping strategies, and work toward greater stability, accountability, and control in their lives.

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.

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.
