Support
Are you or a whānau member experiencing gambling and or other addictions?
A supportive practitioner can encourage and motivate you or someone you know to take all the steps required to regain self control and direction in your life.
Our face-to-face support is free, professional and confidential. Support is available throughout Te Tai Tokerau for individuals, couples, whānau and groups so you can get the help and support you need and it won’t cost you anything. We also offer support by telephone or zoom for people in remote areas or who are housebound.
