Gambling Addiction Counselling in Brussels

Philippe Jacquet & Associates offers specialist gambling addiction counselling in Brussels. Sessions are conducted in English and French, for clients in Belgium and across Europe.

Gambling addiction is rarely about gambling. It is typically about the relationship between risk, control, and relief — and the psychological function that the behaviour has come to serve. Understanding that function, rather than simply addressing the behaviour, is what makes sustained recovery possible. Dr Jacquet is a Hazelden-trained addiction specialist with over 25 years of clinical experience working with compulsive and behavioural addictions, including gambling, sports betting, and financial risk-taking.

The approach is depth-oriented and integrative, drawing on psychodynamic and Jungian frameworks to understand the history and structure of the compulsion. Where trauma underlies the addiction, EMDR is available — Dr Jacquet is an EMDR practitioner with over 20 years of experience. The Brussels practice offers the same clinical depth as the Harley Street and Central London rooms, with sessions available in person and online.
