    Taking care of yourself

    Being concerned about someone you care about’s gambling can be stressful and isolating. It can affect trust, relationships, self-esteem, health and finances. Helping yourself is as important as helping the person you’re concerned about.

    Our counsellors are here to support you and we provide individual, couple and group counselling. Free, confidential and provided by qualified staff. Find out more.

    Hear from others

    Sometimes hearing real stories from people who’ve been there and got through it can be helpful. Check out the Not a Dollar More podcast and here from affected others share their stories.
