What is the goal of counseling for video game addiction?

When you're struggling with a video game addiction, it can feel like you're in a digital cage. You're connected to a virtual world, but disconnected from your own life. The goal of counseling isn't just to get you offline. It's to help you reclaim your life and find a new sense of purpose. We'll work together to help you understand the "why" behind your reliance on video games and help you find new ways to connect to the world around you. You can live a life that is full and rewarding.

Can therapy help me stop my video game addiction?

Yes! Therapy is a powerful tool to help you stop the cycle of video game addiction. Think of it as a guide to help you find your way out of the maze. Therapy helps you identify the triggers that lead to your compulsive video game use and teaches you new coping skills. We’ll also help you find new ways to handle life’s stresses and difficult emotions without turning to video games. We believe you have the power to change and to find a new way to live.

What are some common signs of video game addiction?

It can be hard to know if you have a video game addiction. But if your video game use is impacting your relationships, work, or health, it might be a sign that you have a problem. You may be spending more time on video games than on other important things in your life. We understand that this is a difficult thing to admit. We'll provide a safe and supportive space for you to explore what’s happening and help you take the first step to a better life.

What's the difference between a healthy hobby and an addiction?

A healthy hobby is something you enjoy and can easily put down. Video game addiction is when the hobby becomes a compulsive need that you feel you can't control. It's when your video game use starts to negatively impact your life. We can work together to help you understand your unique experience and develop a plan to take control.
