Dr George Booty. The PsychoTRAUMA Clinic (Convergence College of Psychotherapy)
Registered Psychotherapist, Dr, DPsych, MA Couns, MA Psych, PG Dip Spvn
The gamblers are often the victims of abuse or neglect and this addiction like any other is where the person tries to sublimate their personal needs to cope with life in general. We have ways to help that match the problem extent. Trauma can be at the root of it all, but a sense of instant gratification and the need (habit) for the adrenaline rush are all factors to be looked at.

Jonathan Livingstone Therapy & Coaching
Psychologist, MSc, MA, PGCE, GMBPsS
Like all addictions, gambling is a symptom of the problem, and was once regarded as a solution to the problem. The ritual and experience of gambling overwhelms the bad feelings. I will help you to uncover and resolve the causes of the bad feelings that underlie the problem of gambling, so that you regain your freedom of action.

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.

Jason Fletcher Hypnotherapy and Coaching
Hypnotherapist, FNCIP SQHP
Gambling work focuses on understanding the emotional needs or stress responses that sit behind gambling behaviours. I support people in exploring what gambling provides emotionally and how those needs might be met in safer and more stable ways. Sessions are non-judgemental and structured, supporting greater self-awareness and regulation.

Liverpool's identity is shaped by its working-class heritage, maritime history, and strong community bonds — a culture that values directness and solidarity, and where therapists who meet clients without pretension find a ready welcome. The city has experienced significant economic hardship since deindustrialisation, and therapists frequently address depression, economic stress, and intergenerational trauma in communities that have carried these burdens for generations. Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust provides substantial public mental health services, with a private therapy community concentrated in the city centre and the leafy south of the city around Allerton and Woolton. Liverpool's cultural richness — anchored by its music, art, and sporting identity — supports a creative community with its own distinct mental health needs.
