Kevin Jones
Psychologist, MACP
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.

Bipolar Disorder Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist
Greg Rennie has over 10 years experience working as an addiction specialist in top addiction treatment centres in Ontario, Canada. He utilizes the same approaches as "rehabs" do but in an outpatient, one to one environment. I have helped many clients overcome why they go back again and again to the destructive behaviour of gambling but can't seem to stay away from it. Greg is in recovery himself (30 years) and has been challenged with the why of addiction and why we use an external means to escape from our core issues. Contact him at greg@bipolar-addiction.com
