The aim of problem gambling counselling at Breakeven is to provide an opportunity for you to work toward increasing your well-being by becoming free of problem gambling.
In order to work towards this, your Breakeven counsellor is able to offer you strategies and interventions that may help to limit your ability to gamble. However, your counsellor will not give you advice or suggestions on other life issues, but will work with you to come to your own decisions. Your Breakeven counsellor's role is to facilitate you and they will respect your values and any choices you make for yourself.
Your Breakeven counsellor will work with you according to your particular needs. ln order for you to understand what triggers your gambling, it may be valuable for you to work with your counsellor on better understanding how your life experiences have influenced you. In order to become and remain free of problem gambling you may discover that it will benefit you to address and resolve specific problems such as decision making, coping with a crisis, developing personal insight and knowledge, improving interpersonal relationships or working through confusing thoughts and feelings.
The counselling offered by Breakeven is a valuable support in the journey to becoming free of a gambling problem. Having a good working relationship with your Breakeven counsellor is a key part of that journey. Your counsellor will remain open to any questions or concerns that you have about the counselling process.
We understand that it's not always easy to take the first step, so let's make it
as easy as possible. To begin the process, all you need to do is get in touch.
We offer you an initial assessment appointment with one of our experienced counsellors.
Like the rest of our service, this is free.
At your assessment we will discuss your situation with you and suggest ways in which
you might begin to address your problem. We can then offer you a series of counselling
sessions which can be arranged for a regular time and location to suit you.
You can apply online, or contact us by telephone or email
if you prefer.
