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.
In my practice, I offer a compassionate approach to individuals grappling with gambling issues, focusing on the emotional and psychological underpinnings of this challenge. Utilizing a blend of holistic strategies, including the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Mindfulness, I create a personalized plan to address the complexities of gambling behavior. Our journey together involves uncovering the triggers and underlying emotional states that contribute to gambling, while also developing healthier coping mechanisms and decision-making skills. Through this supportive process, clients learn to regain control over their actions, rebuild their lives, and foster a sense of balance and well-being. My aim is to provide a pathway out of the cycle of gambling, offering tools and insights that empower individuals to make lasting changes and embrace a more fulfilling life.
As a Certified Gambling Counsellor by CCPC Global, I assist persons struggling with gambling addiction, including online gambling, gaming, and sports betting. If gambling is providing a short-term escape at a long-term cost, we can work together to help you regain control and start taking action toward things that matter.
It can be hard to know where to begin when dealing with addiction because its roots can run deep into the fabric of our lives. When working with individuals who experience addictions, I first seek to understand and appreciate each person’s story and work to provide a safe, supportive and non-judgemental space where healing can begin. My own experiences with addiction and recovery have helped
As a therapist, I know how challenging it can be to manage addiction. Addiction can impact the quality of our lives, our relationships, and our connection to ourselves. Therapy can provide a safe space to navigate addiction and explore what you wish for in relation to the substance or behaviour. Discussing the addiction can also provide us useful clues as to what roots the addiction, allowing us to navigate the core issue at hand and explore preferred coping strategies.

While gambling typically begins as recreational activity it can become habit forming and often develops addictive behaviors interfering with other areas of our lives, such as relationships, jobs, and finances. To increase awareness and insight into the reasons for using, I offer evidence-based treatment while providing you with options along the continuum of the Harm Reduction approach towards abstinence. We will explore any underlying emotional needs and relationships. By gaining insight to any ambivalent thoughts and feelings around changing patterns surrounding gambling I will support you in the setting and achieving of personal goals.
