Behavioral Addictions:
Comprehensive Addiction Treatment for Lasting Change
Our addiction treatment services support behavioural addictions and problematic use patterns, combining psychotherapy, relapse-prevention planning and, when needed, referral to specialised addiction treatment centres to promote long-term recovery and restored autonomy.
About Lavora’s Behavioral Addictions Services
At Lavora’s Behavioral Addictions Services, we focus on patterns that feel out of control even without substances. Behavioural addictions can include gambling, gaming, online use, shopping or other activities that start to dominate time, attention and resources at the expense of health, work or relationships.
Our team conducts careful assessment of behavioural addictions, looking at triggers, emotional states, underlying mental health and any links to alcohol addiction treatment or other substance use. We then design addiction treatment that may draw on individual psychotherapy, relapse prevention planning and, when appropriate, coordination with an addiction treatment centre.
Therapy focuses on understanding cravings, reducing compulsive use, building alternative routines and repairing the areas of life that have been affected.
We also explore support networks and practical safeguards to make change more sustainable.
Our purpose is simple: to provide structured, confidential support for behavioural addictions so you can regain control, rebuild trust and move toward a more balanced, self-directed life.

Frequently Asked Behavioral Addictions Questions
What are behavioural addictions?
Behavioural addictions involve compulsive engagement in activities such as gambling, gaming, internet use, shopping or other behaviours even when they cause harm to health, finances, work or relationships.
How are behavioural addictions different from substance addictions?
The core pattern is similar: a loss of control, cravings, continued behaviour despite harm and withdrawal like feelings when stopping. The difference is that the addiction centres on a behaviour rather than a substance.
What are common signs of a behavioural addiction?
Signs can include spending increasing time on the behaviour, difficulty cutting back, lying or hiding use, financial or academic problems, irritability when unable to engage and neglect of other responsibilities.
How are behavioural addictions assessed?
An assessment explores the type of behaviour, frequency, triggers, emotional drivers, impact on life and any links with other mental health issues such as anxiety, depression or trauma.
What treatment options are available for behavioural addictions?
Treatment may include individual psychotherapy, addiction treatment strategies, relapse prevention planning and when needed coordination with an addiction treatment centre or group programs.
How does therapy help with behavioural addictions?
Therapy helps you identify triggers, understand what the behaviour is helping you avoid or manage, build alternative coping strategies and set realistic limits that support recovery.
What is the role of alcohol addiction treatment in behavioural addiction work?
Some people have both behavioural addictions and difficulties with alcohol. In these cases alcohol addiction treatment and behavioural addiction treatment are integrated to address all parts of the pattern.
How long does behavioural addiction treatment usually take?
Timeframes vary. Some people respond well to structured treatment over a few months. Others with more severe or long standing addictions may need longer term support to maintain change.
When should I seek help for a behavioural addiction?
You should seek help if attempts to cut back keep failing, if the behaviour is harming your health, finances or relationships or if you feel your life is increasingly organised around the addiction.
Can family or partners be involved in behavioural addiction treatment?
Yes. Involving close others can help them understand addiction patterns, reduce blame and support practical changes that make recovery more sustainable.
