Clarity Health Care
Psychologist
At Clarity Health Care, we provide compassionate, non-judgemental support for individuals experiencing gambling problems. Our experienced Malvern Psychologists and Fitzroy Psychologists work with you to understand the underlying drivers of gambling behaviours and to build practical strategies for change.
Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and relapse prevention planning, we help you regain control, rebuild financial and emotional wellbeing, and address the impacts of gambling on relationships, work, and mental health.
We recognise that gambling issues can often involve feelings of shame, secrecy, and isolation. At Clarity, you’ll find a supportive environment where recovery is possible and hope is restored.
Appointments are available both in-person and via telehealth, offering flexible options to access help when you're ready.

John Zavaglia (Mind LIfe)
Counsellor/Therapist, ACA Registered, PC Grad MHN & Neuro, MBA
Gambling can gradually take more control than you intended, affecting your finances, relationships, confidence and peace of mind. You may want to stop or regain control but find yourself caught in the same cycle. Together, we can understand what's driving the behaviour, recognise the patterns and develop practical ways to regain control, rebuild confidence and move forward.

Marc Donegan, Psychotherapist
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychodynamic Analysis & Transactional Analysis, PACFA, BACP, ITTA, EATA, UKATA
Compulsive gambling usually serves a psychological function, whether that’s escape, control, or managing underlying anxiety or stress. I work with clients to understand what the behaviour is doing for them and build sustainable alternatives, alongside addressing any financial or relational impact where relevant.

Dr George Booty. The PsychoTRAUMA Clinic (Convergence College of Psychotherapy)
Registered Psychotherapist, Dr, DPsych, MA Couns, MA Psych, PG Dip Spvn
The gamblers are often the victims of abuse or neglect and this addiction like any other is where the person tries to sublimate their personal needs to cope with life in general. We have ways to help that match the problem extent. Trauma can be at the root of it all, but a sense of instant gratification and the need (habit) for the adrenaline rush are all factors to be looked at.
