At the bottom of this page read the Steps to End Your Gambling Habit on your own, if you are not able to see me for some reason.
The Gambling Habit
If you find yourself gambling more frequently, or if you struggle to control your gambling urges, you may be experiencing a gambling addiction.
Hypnosis can be a safe and effective method to help break the cycle of gambling.
It helps you relax and access your subconscious mind, where the thoughts and beliefs that contribute to your gambling behaviour are stored.
Through hypnosis, you can also develop new coping mechanisms and healthier behaviours.
Hypnotherapy is a powerful combination of science and art, and Gregory is a master in this field.
By blending therapeutic precision with creative insight, he offers a professional, empathetic solution for overcoming gambling addiction.
Each person’s journey is uniqueGregory personalises each session to suit your specific needs and history.

Research and EvidenceNumerous studies featured in the Journal of Gambling Studies have examined how hypnosis can help treat gambling addiction.
Study from 2004One 2004 study showed that hypnotherapy reduced the frequency and severity of gambling among participants with addiction.
In the study, participants were split into two groups: one received six weekly hypnotherapy sessions, while the other was placed on a waitlist.
By the end of the study, those who had received hypnotherapy had significantly reduced their gambling behaviour compared to the control group.
Study from 2010A 2010 study explored the combination of hypnotherapy and cognitive-behavioural therapy across 36 participants.
The treatment group received 12 weeks of therapy: six sessions of hypnotherapy and six of CBT.
Results showed the treatment group experienced a marked decline in gambling behaviour compared to the control group.
Literature Review 2013A 2013 review of hypnotherapy for gambling addiction concluded that although research is still limited, early findings are promising.
The review suggested that hypnotherapy is particularly useful for addressing emotional and cognitive factors tied to gambling behaviour.
Overall, hypnosis shows potential as an effective method to help treat gambling addiction.
Professional Guidance is EssentialMore research is needed to fully validate these findings and establish the most effective treatment frameworks.
If you are considering hypnotherapy for gambling addiction, seek out a qualified, experienced hypnotherapist who understands this complex issue.

The Truth Is, You Will Do Most of the Work
Hypnosis cannot change you if you’re not prepared to change. It’s also important to understand that hypnotherapy is not a quick fix, and achieving results may require multiple sessions.
For example, if someone struggling with gambling believes they can’t control their urges, hypnosis can help change that belief.
The therapist may use positive affirmations or visualisation techniques to help you see yourself as someone in control of your habits.
Hypnosis is a safe and effective approach to managing problem gambling. However, it’s not a magic solution and may not work for everyone.
It can be a helpful tool for people who are truly committed to changing their behaviour.

Put Yourself First and Take Back Your Life
Gambling can consume you and lead to actions you never thought you’d take.
It becomes your priority — you lie, plan, steal, or do whatever it takes to get that rush.
You win, then lose, then lose again.
Each loss chips away at your confidence, deepening the despair.
Even when you promise yourself to stop, you keep going back.
It’s not about money — it’s the adrenaline you’re addicted to.
But that feeling is fleeting.
When you pause to think of everything you’ve lost, despair returns.
It’s time to break the cycle — for good.

Five Tips
The first thing to do is to go to all your friends, family and other loved ones, and admit to your problem.
You’ve likely lied to these people ever since your problem started.
You might have actually stolen from some of them, or borrowed money and took too long to pay it back.
It’s time to mend these fences and admit to your mistake.
Getting this off your chest and talking about it with the ones you trust and love is the first step in getting past this issue.
Sometimes the best thing to do is simply talk about it.
2. Find a support group.There are plenty of avenues to pursue when it comes to needing an outlet for your frustration.
You can join a support group, or go it alone with a counsellor.
However, whatever you do, just make sure you put yourself first and set aside the time to sit down once or twice a week to get things off your chest.
To make it easier on those around you, make sure to speak with someone who’ll have no preconceived notions, and won’t sit in judgment.
Make sure it’s someone you don’t know who will help you find a solution, and not remind you of the costs of your mistakes.
3. Eliminate all access to cash of any kind.This is an essential step.
You must realise that your inability to control your urges is directly attributed to your access to available cash and credit.
Take all your credit cards and cut them up.
Do this in front of someone to make sure all of them are destroyed.
You’ll still be paying these cards down, but you won’t have the ability to withdraw any money from them.
Or give your card to your wife or someone special.
If you don’t have someone to hold it for you, then destroy it.
At the beginning of each week, have this person come with you to withdraw the money you’ll need for the remainder of the week.
Make sure to account for petrol or any other item you’ll need.
This money will be yours to spend as you wish. If you succumb and gamble, then you’ll limit your losses and won’t make a bad situation worse.
Allow your special someone to have access to your bank accounts.
If you have internet banking, provide them with access to your information online.
The deterrent will be your concern of being found out.
If you think of gambling again, you’ll be reminded that someone will be watching your banking transactions.
You must be cognisant that if you make a mistake and slip, you’ll likely have to explain yourself.
Having to explain you’ve done it again can be very uncomfortable.
4. Set up a weekly schedule of when you’ll be home and what you’ll be doing.Your biggest issue is your lack of control over your gambling problem.
Giving up this control won’t be easy, but it’s absolutely necessary. While you can’t control your urges, you have been in control of your access to cash.
After step 3, this will no longer be the case. With step 4, you’ll take it a step further by limiting your available free time.
The two biggest factors contributing to your gambling are your free time and available cash.
Once you’ve eliminated your access to money, you’ll then have to eliminate your free time. This doesn’t imply that you live in a box or under house arrest.
What it does mean is that you have a set time when you’ll be coming home.
5. Find a new outlet for your habit.You’ll now devote this compulsion of yours to something new. You are going to look within yourself to find something to take the place of your gambling habit.
This doesn’t mean you find a new and equally dangerous one, but it does mean that you find something that you can devote your time to.
According to some experts, it usually takes three weeks or 21 days to end a bad habit. However, this is unlike any bad habit you’ve ever developed before, so you’ll need more time to get this out of your system.
What about bowling, reading, writing, fishing, golfing, touch football or anything else where your energies could be put to better use?
Find that activity that will occupy your time. It’s never easy to admit you have a problem. It takes a lot of courage to admit you’ve lost control and need help.
However, you can get past this and you will. It’s not going to be easy, but as time passes, you’ll begin to appreciate everything you once forgot.
Your new habit will be spending time with family, friends and loved ones. You’ll no longer be burdened by the allure of gambling, and you will regain your independence.
