With the psychodynamic approach, the client will know the causes and roots that led him to his problem; for what it is necessary an in-depth analysis of the personality by putting greater focus on the current and past experiences. This will give the client the opportunity to build a new present and future understanding and identifying triggers and own emotions.
As a Certified Gambling Counsellor by CCPC Global, I assist persons struggling with gambling addiction, including online gambling, gaming, and sports betting. If gambling is providing a short-term escape at a long-term cost, we can work together to help you regain control and start taking action toward things that matter.
At Reflection Centre, we provide compassionate and non-judgmental support for individuals who struggle with gambling addiction. Our experienced therapists offer evidence-based treatment approaches to help clients break free from the cycle of compulsive gambling and regain control over their lives. We understand the devastating effects that gambling addiction can have on individuals and their loved ones, and we are here to provide support and guidance every step of the way.
No matter what stage you are at with your gambling addiction, we work with you on harm reduction approaches, stages of change and goal setting, as well as exploring underlying factors that result in addiction behaviour. We work with you to identify the root cause of the gambling and/or addictive behaviour, and provide strategies to help you cope better. You may be in the contemplation stage (unsure if you want to stop gambling) or you may have been in recovery for some time and would like to explore more deeply the root causes or ongoing challenges you experience.
As a therapist, I know how challenging it can be to manage addiction. Addiction can impact the quality of our lives, our relationships, and our connection to ourselves. Therapy can provide a safe space to navigate addiction and explore what you wish for in relation to the substance or behaviour. Discussing the addiction can also provide us useful clues as to what roots the addiction, allowing us to navigate the core issue at hand and explore preferred coping strategies.
