John Zavaglia (Mind LIfe)

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.

Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns) Dist, Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
My focus is in supporting harm minimisation strategies that can feel practical for your circumstances. Problematic gambling can snowball to a range of other life difficulties and complications creating overwhelm and secretive isolation which is devastating to your happiness and how you feel about yourself. I can utilise various assessments to measure the severity of a specific problem, as well as determining your progress within therapy. I can provide a copy of these for your doctor or other treatment provider to assist you further where requested.
My aim is to assist you with your problem gambling creating your life difficulties to restore balance, happiness and inner peace with various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods, along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.

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.

Compulsive gambling usually serves a psychological function, whether that’s escape, control, or managing underlying anxiety or stress.
