7. Was there anything else different about your lifestyle then? It doesn’t have the same effect it used to, but I guess that’s because of a tolerance I have formed maybe.. It sounds like you’ve had some success stopping in the past I studied harder at uni.. Maybe went out a little more. But having no access was definitely the big one. Now uni has gone downhill, I don’t go out anymore 10:15 AM 10:09 AM 10:12 AM 10:06 AM

Editor's Notes
Gambling Help Online is an initiative of the Ministerial Council on Gambling (MCG) and is funded as part of an agreement between all State and Territory Governments and the Australian Government Attract a new cohort of clients who may not otherwise access face-to-face services Extend the availability of counselling and support by addressing issues around remoteness, anonymity and after-hours availability
We built a program with multiple components. There are self-assessment pages to measure risk of a problem, money spent and a descriptor of signs of a problem. Within the website there are 30,000 words of content written by our counsellors. This includes self-help information on how to cut down or quit and an interactive quiz on faulty cognitions that develop around winning. As part of the development we conducted focus groups across Australia and content such as managing finances was derived from these groups. Each jurisdiction signed off on the content and provided local service information housed on specific state information pages.
Immediate No appointment Available 24/7 Usually different counsellor each time Not the same as internet therapy – self-help with or without therapist assistance It works similarly to instant messaging where counsellor and client type in a secure environment. While there are no physical cues, the speed of typing, errors in text, punctuation and smoothness of session provide information. A client who has recently gambled will often type quickly and not wait for a response from the counsellor. There will be short incomplete sentences without punctuation and full of typos. The amount of content covered in an online session is about half of that in a face-to-face or telephone session, so we use push-page technology to introduce previously developed content which then becomes a source of discussion within the counselling session.

Exit survey indicates 9/10 people would recommend the service to a friend For some people it is easier to disclose because of the lack of visual and social cues. Greater sense of safety and more control over self-presentation and what others see. This may particularly be the case for those talking to someone for the first time. The service also provides a pathway into services.
Where people said that they had previously spoken to a counsellor, the most common method was face-to-face. Interestingly, the rest of the population of previous treatment seekers stated that their treatment was distance based as via telephone or online through GHO or another website. This suggests that peoples views of what constitutes counselling may be shifting.
