Mandy Randall-Gavin MBACP, UKATA
Counsellor/Therapist, BA Hons, Dip TA Prac: UKATA
I've noticed that when clients come to therapy disclosing a gambling problem, they often minimise their negative feelings. They seem to have become hard-wired to seek out the pleasure of the bet. Gamblers often hide their feelings of loss, anxiety and depression with another addiction and say they cannot press the 'off' button. I would work alongside you to discover what the triggers are to actually making the bet. How you are feeling before the bet, what mood you're in, whether you're on your own or with others and where it takes place. This is when you the client and me the counsellor, can draw up an action plan and agree about what you are going to do and how you're going to do it. It is also important to know the size of the debt you've accumulated and identify if any money is owed and to whom.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP BAAT
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.

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.

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.
