Finding Freedom from Gambling: A Compassionate, Internal Approach
Are you or a loved one trapped in a cycle of gambling, chasing losses, or struggling with the shame and secrecy that comes with it? As a therapist trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), I help you move beyond shame to understand the "why" behind the behavior. With IFS, we will compassionately unburden the parts of you that turn to gambling for comfort, distraction, or excitement. Instead of fighting these urges, we will explore their protective roles, healing the underlying pain that drives them. With EFT, we will repair the relational injuries that gambling often creates, helping you and your loved ones break the cycle of fear and blame to rebuild trust and emotional connection. You are more than your compulsion. Let’s work together to bring harmony to your internal world and safety to your relationships.

Dina Hijazi
Psychologist, PhD, CSAT
Struggles with gambling can affect not just finances, but self-esteem, relationships, and overall well-being. I provide a supportive, judgment-free environment to help individuals understand the emotional and behavioral drivers behind compulsive gambling. Using evidence-based approaches like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), relapse prevention strategies, and emotional regulation tools, we work together to regain control, rebuild trust, and create healthier coping mechanisms. Recovery is possible—with the right support, change can start today.

Dr. Cara Bussell, PhD, LLC
Psychologist
Gambling can start as entertainment but may grow into a source of stress, financial strain, and emotional distress. I work with adults who are concerned about their gambling habits or are struggling to regain a sense of stability and control. Using evidence-based approaches such as motivational interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and psychoeducation, I help clients explore their behaviors, build healthier coping strategies, and reconnect with what matters most. If gambling is interfering with your well-being or relationships, I invite you to reach out for a free consultation.
