Toronto Psychologist Donna Ferguson has used strength-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address gambling addictions in the past.Other psychologists in Toronto use other methods such as psychoanalysis to get to the root of the problem, or perhaps even prescribe drugs to treat impulsiveness.CBT attempts to get to the logical foundation of the behavioral pattern, to assess the motivations and compulsions that drive one to gamble in the first place. Through thorough analysis, it is possible to identify the core, intrinsic mental patterns that lead to problem gambling and isolate them so that they can be addressed specifically.To find out more about how Donna Ferguson can treat this dangerous addiction, please visit: Toronto psychologist link.
