United Kingdom only. Content is written for adults in England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. We do not target other countries or seek to operate as a multi-jurisdiction gambling or healthcare service.

18+. Material addresses gambling harm and recovery—not children.

No gambling promotion. No bonuses, odds, sign-up offers, or affiliate links to operators in articles.

No regulated services from us. We do not provide therapy, counselling, or healthcare; we do not accept patients or clients. We do not hold a Gambling Commission operating licence because we are not a gambling business.

Third-party services. GamStop, GamCare, Gambling Therapy, and similar links are independent; we are not their agent and do not earn commission.

Advertisers. Campaigns must follow Google Ads policies and UK law. This destination is informational (harm reduction / help-seeking), not real-money gambling. We do not give legal advice.

No cloaking. We do not detect crawlers or bots to serve different substantive content, and we do not hide text or links intended only for machines. Pages are server-rendered; scripts only improve usability (menus, consent, in-page navigation)—they do not replace the editorial content.

Gambling Therapy: online support—what to expect

A non-profit international service—chat, groups, and resources—without confusing it with NHS therapy.

Editorial article—not sponsored, not a substitute for professional advice. We do not sell services or earn commission from organisations mentioned.

Gambling Therapy is an international charity-led service offering information, forums, and often live chat or groups. We are not affiliated; this link is signposting only.

When it can help

If you prefer typing to calling.
If local services are closed.
If you want to read before speaking to someone face-to-face.

Limits

It is not a substitute for 999 or emergency mental health services. In England, the NHS may offer talking therapies via your GP or NHS mental health services—eligibility and waiting times vary.

GamStop

If you gamble with UK-licensed online operators, read our article on GamStop as well—another tool, different purpose.
