We take a wide-ranging approach to treatment, acknowledging that research from both the ‘medical model’ and ‘behavioural model’ does not support a ‘one fits all’ approach. There is, however, research supporting the need to upskill Gambling Counsellors in a range of theoretical models to:

  • identify the process variable that can most consistently predict a positive outcome
  • equip counsellors with a combination of techniques that can bring about higher rates of problem resolution
  • implement change assessment
  • understand that client participation in setting realistic, timely and achievable goals is essential
  • ensure that decisions derived from initial assessments are defined by the client.
