NHS Northern Gambling Service

The NHS Northern Gambling Service (also known as the Northern Gambling Clinic) provides specialist addiction therapy and recovery to people affected by gambling addiction, as well as those with mental health problems such as depression, anxiety, trauma, and suicidal feelings. We also provide help to people close to those with gambling addiction, such as family, partners, and carers.

We’re a clinical team made up of psychologists, therapists, psychiatrists, and mental health nurses. We also have experts by experience – people who have recovered from gambling addiction.

Who can we help?

• People with severe gambling addictions
• Long-term gambling problems
• Adverse experiences in childhood that may underlie the gambling problem
• Family members of those with a gambling addiction.
