Beat your addiction to gambling
I just wanted to say a very deep thank you for all your help and support – Mr NP, Stevenage.
Cognitive behaviour therapy and clinical hypnotherapy – The proven treatment to beat your addiction to gambling
Your recovery commences when you attend for your pre-treatment comprehensive assessment. At this session we will examine and discuss all the factors that may have led to your gambling addiction. We will examine family issues, alcohol dependency, relationship problems, employment difficulties and other social factors. We of course understand how debilitating this condition is and therefore we ensure that you are treated in a sympathetic, sensitive and caring manner in total confidence.
We will then prepare a therapy programme that will bring about your recovery so that you become less dependent on gambling in order to give it up completely. Your treatment will be based upon cognitive behaviour hypnotherapy. These sessions will be at regular weekly intervals.
Why is cognitive behaviour hypnotherapy successful in treating gambling addiction?
CBH will encourage you to start thinking more positively about yourself, others and life in general. Consequently your thoughts will become healthier and more rational, your emotions will become positive, influencing your behaviours as well. The clinical hypnotherapy element of your treatment will address deeper underlying issues that are lodged within your sub-conscious mind. Treatments will include ego strengthening, relaxation, confidence building and self hypnosis.
About Gambling Addiction
The anticipation and thrill of the risk associated with gambling creates a natural high that can become addictive. The exciting gambling environment can also be attractive. There is also a link with alcohol abuse. Depression and attempted suicide amongst gambling addicts is at least double the national average.
