Wellspring Healing and Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CMHC, LCSW
We understand gambling behaviors as attempts by parts to manage pain, stress, or disconnection. Rather than focusing solely on stopping the behavior, we work to build compassionate awareness of the underlying needs driving it. This approach supports greater self-control, internal trust, and long-term change.

Finding Freedom from Gambling: A Compassionate, Internal Approach
Are you or a loved one trapped in a cycle of gambling, chasing losses, or struggling with the shame and secrecy that comes with it? As a therapist trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), I help you move beyond shame to understand the "why" behind the behavior. With IFS, we will compassionately unburden the parts of you that turn to gambling for comfort, distraction, or excitement. Instead of fighting these urges, we will explore their protective roles, healing the underlying pain that drives them. With EFT, we will repair the relational injuries that gambling often creates, helping you and your loved ones break the cycle of fear and blame to rebuild trust and emotional connection. You are more than your compulsion. Let’s work together to bring harmony to your internal world and safety to your relationships.

Dina Hijazi
Psychologist, PhD, CSAT
Struggles with gambling can affect not just finances, but self-esteem, relationships, and overall well-being. I provide a supportive, judgment-free environment to help individuals understand the emotional and behavioral drivers behind compulsive gambling. Using evidence-based approaches like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), relapse prevention strategies, and emotional regulation tools, we work together to regain control, rebuild trust, and create healthier coping mechanisms. Recovery is possible—with the right support, change can start today.

Provo is home to Brigham Young University (BYU), the flagship university of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and the city's mental health landscape is shaped in profound ways by LDS religious culture—perfectionism, gender role expectations, honor code pressure, LGBTQ+ identity in a context where same-sex relationships are prohibited by church policy, and the mental health challenges common in communities with high standards of behavior and limited space for vulnerability. BYU's counseling center provides mental health services for enrolled students within the constraints of university honor code policies, and a number of private practitioners in the area specialize in faith-sensitive therapy or working with clients navigating transitions in their relationship with LDS beliefs. Common therapy concerns include faith and doubt, religious deconstruction and identity, LGBTQ+ identity in an LDS context, perfectionism and anxiety, and the challenges of mental health in a community where disclosure of struggle can feel threatening to one's social and spiritual standing. Utah County's mental health needs are significant across the board, and Provo is an important service hub for the surrounding region.
