Gambling addiction, sometimes called compulsive gambling or gambling disorder, is the inability to curb or stop gambling, in spite of the damage it causes. Similar to substance abuse, gambling can stimulate the reward center of the brain, leading to addiction. If you find yourself always thinking about gambling, including how to get more money to gamble with, using increasing amounts of money to feel the same thrill, being unable to cut back on gambling, gambling to relieve other feelings, or lying to others about what you're doing with your time, you may have a gambling addiction. A therapist trained in gambling addiction will strive to learn more about your gambling habits to understand the patterns that trigger a gambling episode. They will work to help you identify unhealthy or irrational beliefs that may be contributing to this behavior, and teach you tools to replace gambling with healthy behaviors. Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s gambling addiction specialists today.

Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.

I firmly believe that every one of us is born with inherent worth, strengths, and gifts. Sometimes what happens to us on life’s journey interferes with our ability to see those. Sometimes our self-worth seems elusive or lacking altogether. I have a passion for helping clients reclaim that self-worth and capitalize on those valuable strengths and gifts. Whether you have been struggling with addictions, compulsive behaviors, codependency, anxiety, depression, or more, I would be honored to help.

You are curious and insightful. You want to understand yourself at a deeper level and are willing to look in to your internal world. You want to address family of origin issues. You have past trauma that you are ready to acknowledge. You may be feeling stuck in an addictive pattern, moving through a life transition, or maybe you just know something is "off" inside and you want to feel better. You strive to live free from past hurts and beliefs in an authentic, connected, peaceful way.
My clients are surprised by the speed at which they receive relief once we begin our work. They deserve relief from the depression, anxiety and anger that has them seeking help. The fall out from Trauma can filter into every part of your life, destroying relationships and leading to behavior you wish you could change. My clients can "breathe" and move forward with lives they only previously dreamed of. You deserve that too.
