A 12-session online therapeutic programme to understand what it means to have a problem with gambling, identify your gambling harms and find effective strategies to stop gambling and to set yourself free.

The sessions will enhance your knowledge and understanding of what it means to be a problem or compulsive gambler and what harm your gambling has done to you, your life, your family and other important areas of your life. This includes a thorough cost-benefit analysis of the benefits and disadvantages of gambling and the effects and consequences on your physical, mental, spiritual and emotional health, relationships, and other affected areas (bio-psycho-social).

Working through this will enable you to understand your gambling triggers better, the challenges and high-risk situations and how to effectively manage them by learning new coping strategies.

You’ll explore:

• How the problem of gambling began for you

• What gambling does for you (excitement, escape, etc)

• How to meet those same needs in healthier ways

• Understand your gambling harms

• Understand the lies gambling tells you & break the mental loop that keeps pulling you back

• Understand how chasing losses often leads to more losses

• What new habits can you start building now

• Blocking apps and websites

• Setting up financial safeguards

• Avoiding high-risk environments and situations

• Start seeing how your urges follow a predictable cycle — once you can see the pattern, you can start breaking it.

The twelve sessions are each an hour long and can be conducted weekly, twice, or three times a week, depending on your needs. Once the booking is confirmed, I will contact you to discuss your requirements and schedule at your convenience.
