For many people who suffer from gambling addiction, gambling rehab can provide vital support and space away from gambling without the pressures, triggers, and temptations of daily life.
Delamere is the UK’s only purpose-built addiction rehabilitation centre and behavioural health clinic. Our approach to gambling addiction rehab is to blend traditional and evidence-based therapies with more innovative holistic treatments not available at other rehabs, to ensure that every guest experiences an immersive and tailored treatment.
Delamere is a luxury, private rehab located in rural Cheshire. Our multi-disciplinary team of medical professionals, therapists, and lived experience practitioners provide exemplary, regulated care that leaves our guests feeling safe and supported.
Gambling rehab at Delamere generally begins with a psychological assessment as gambling disorders have a serious effect on a person’s brain.
Guests may be prescribed medication by our qualified 24-hour on-site medical team, such as antidepressants and anti-anxiety tablets, to treat some of the psychological impacts of gambling addiction. At Delamere, we understand that everyone is different and what works for one person, will be different for another. This is why our recognised addiction specialists co-create individualised gambling addiction treatment programmes with our guests.
The next step of gambling rehab addresses the root causes of the addiction through a variety of individual and group therapies. Guests will learn how to prevent relapse, will be encouraged to take part in our regular mentoring sessions post-residential treatment, and find rehab aftercare services local to them such as GamCare or Gamblers Anonymous to support their continued recovery.
“The 28 days recovery I completed has changed my life and put a whole new perspective on my life and I can’t thank the lovely staff for all the support they provided me on my down days. Staff that you really do connect with and have respect for you. Highly recommended. Will always hold my journey in Delamere in my heart as it’s changed my whole outlook and perspective on my future.” – Former Delamere Guest
Financial difficulty is an obvious, and unavoidable, product of gambling addiction. However, the stress, regret and guilt that come with compulsive gambling can also cause serious emotional disorders. These feelings can build up over time leading to anxiety and depression as well as behavioural problems such as irritability, low self-esteem, extreme reactions or lack of self-control. This is because the neural pathways that control decision-making, impulses and cognition are weakened as the addiction develops.
Gambling rehab provides you or a loved one with the chance to address the underlying causes of the addiction and take steps to overcome it. Delamere is a private rehab for gambling addiction that specialises in treating addiction on a residential basis. We provide a safe and supportive environment where guests meet others on similar journeys to recovery, taking away any shame and stigma surrounding their addiction.
“We all need to get away from time to time from problems we have. Whether that’s addiction problems, work-life balance issues, or excessive pressure on you. This is the perfect facility for that purpose.”
An inpatient stay at Delamere is a deliberately intensive 4-phase gambling rehab programme, one which we have crafted over time and has helped many participants recover. Our emphasis is on holistic care to treat addiction and associated issues. This means that we treat the whole person rather than just the symptoms they present with. We believe that successful treatment runs far deeper than simply stopping the addictive substance or behaviour.
Our approach at Delamere comprises 4 core phases: Stop, Start, Grow, & Bloom. Everything we offer at Delamere aims at effective and lasting outcomes in addiction treatment:
This phase addresses any physical aspects of your addiction. Our medical team is on hand 24/7.
During ‘Start’ we help identify the psychological underpinnings of your dependency as you participate in a variety of addiction treatment therapies.
Our ‘Grow’ phase is the process of integrating the Delamere learning experience into life after treatment.
Our ‘Bloom’ phase offers intensive support on a weekly basis for the first three months of recovery once guests return home.
If you are looking for help for a friend, working with someone, or living alongside someone who is displaying signs of gambling addiction, you’re not alone and we’re here to help. We find that it helps to broach the subject of going to gambling rehab from a place of concern, rather than judgement. At Delamere, we offer family support services and intervention services to support you in getting the help your loved one needs. If you are considering organising an intervention for your loved one, friend, or colleague, or just need some general guidance about how you can help, contact Delamere today.
Room rates at Delamere vary depending on the type of room and the length of stay. At a minimum, guests stay with us for 28 days. An executive room for a 28-day stay costs £18,000 and rates include comprehensive private medical care, an intensive therapy programme, delicious home-cooked meals, and luxury accommodation in ensuite rooms.
Everything we do here at Delamere is about outcomes. Focusing on getting you back to yourself again in the short term, but then growing beyond that when you leave Delamere, we pride ourselves on helping you create the foundations for long-term recovery and growth. There’s no one-size-fits-all here at Delamere. We listen, learn, and tailor our programmes to meet your needs, whatever they may be. Your journey to recovery is yours, so we design our programmes with you in mind.
