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.

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.

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.

Rita El Alaoui
Hypnotherapist, Hypnotherapy diploma, reiki master diploma.
I help the subconscious realize that gambling was being used as an escape, a stress release, or a search for a "high"and guide it toward healthy, natural alternatives using Ericksonian tools like fast-rewinding memories of winning or installing physical calming anchors to disrupt the automatic "chasing losses" loop so cravings lose their power.
