Rob McClintock Counselling
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Dip Counselling ACA, Clinical Hypnotherapist ASCH,
Gambling addiction can destroy relationships, finances, and self-worth, trapping you in a cycle of shame, lies, and the desperate hope that the next bet will fix everything. The secrecy and isolation make it even harder to break free. As someone who understands addiction intimately, I know that willpower alone isn't enough to overcome the compulsive urges that drive gambling behaviour. My approach to gambling addiction uses Subconscious Dynamics™ to address the underlying emotional triggers, unresolved trauma, and psychological patterns that fuel the need to gamble. We work to rewire the neural pathways that create the rush and escapism gambling provides, replacing them with healthier coping mechanisms and genuine fulfilment. This holistic, medication-free method helps you reclaim control over your life and rebuild the trust and stability that gambling has taken away.

Adam Kreuzer
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Diploma of Counselling, Professional Certificate of Adolescent Counselling
Gambling problems and addiction seems to be on the rise in Australia. Often, one succumbs to an unhealthy relationship with gambling to cover up major issues, problems or challenges in their life. It's a way for someone to escape from their life. It can also be a trauma response. work with clients in a sensitive, caring and respectful way to uncover the root of the trauma and process these feelings effectively. I have achieved great results in this area.

Townsville is the largest city in tropical North Queensland — a military, agricultural, and mining hub built around Lavarack Barracks (home to the Army's 3rd Brigade), James Cook University, and a regional healthcare system serving a vast geographic area. The city's significant Australian Army presence creates therapy demand from military families navigating deployment stress and the emotional challenges of service life, while the broader civilian population navigates the economic cycles of mining and agriculture. Townsville University Hospital provides institutional mental health resources, while James Cook University's psychology programs supply clinical training to the local and regional community. Townsville's tropical climate and geographic isolation — it is the largest city between Brisbane and Darwin — mean therapists serve clients from a very wide catchment, and telehealth plays an important role in extending care across North Queensland.
