Gambling Therapists in Moncton, NB

I treat gambling and online gambling using hypnotherapy and CBT.

If and when gambling becomes problematic, it is nearly always a coping mechanism for deeper emotional struggles. Healing involves uncovering the underlying roots, cultivating supportive connections, and approaching oneself with patience and compassion instead of judgment.

Gambling behaviours often develop as a way of coping with stress or emotional discomfort. Therapy focuses on identifying the triggers behind these behaviours while helping individuals develop healthier coping strategies and regain control.

We help men struggling with problematic gambling. Our clinicians can help you better understand the roots of your gambling addiction, and work on tools and resources that can help you move past problematic gambling.

My approach to treating problem gambling is grounded in evidence-based practices that address both the underlying drivers and the behavioural patterns that keep individuals stuck in the cycle. I begin by helping clients understand the emotional, cognitive, and situational triggers that lead to gambling urges, while teaching practical skills to reduce impulsivity and regain control. Using a blend of cognitive-behavioural strategies, motivational enhancement, and harm-reduction techniques, I supports clients in rebuilding healthier coping mechanisms, repairing financial or relational impacts, and strengthening long-term resilience. My work is collaborative, non-judgmental, and focused on empowering clients to create sustainable change at a pace that feels safe and achievable.

Moncton is New Brunswick's largest city and a bilingual hub for Atlantic Canada, officially bilingual with roughly a third of residents francophone, a mix that gives the city a distinctive dual cultural character and creates important considerations for language access in mental health services—many residents prefer therapy in their first language, and bilingual practitioners are an important asset in the local landscape. Université de Moncton is the largest French-language university outside Quebec and contributes trained mental health professionals and student mental health demand to the community. Horizon Health Network provides mental health services in English, and Vitalité Health Network serves the Francophone population. Common therapy concerns include bilingual and bicultural identity stress, student mental health, seasonal depression in long Atlantic winters, and the adjustment challenges of a growing city drawing young professionals from across the Maritime provinces.
