Meet the host of Fold em
Hi, I’m Adrienne
I’m Adrienne, the host and producer of Fold em: Help for Gambling Problems, a podcast for people who are struggling with gambling, as well as for their family, spouses and friends. I’ve worked as a counsellor specializing in gambling problems for more than fifteen years.
Over the years, I’ve been inspired by many people who have courageously moved away from a life controlled by gambling. On Fold em, you’ll hear from some of these people as they share honest stories about how they overcame gambling addiction and rebuilt their lives. It can be a powerful relief to hear that you are not alone, and that others have faced similar struggles and found a way forward.
The podcast also offers concrete, practical strategies to help you stop gambling and stay stopped. You’ll learn more about the causes of compulsive gambling, what keeps people stuck in the cycle, and what helps people break free. I speak with therapists, researchers, and people with lived experience to share hope, insight, and tools that can support recovery.
I work in private practice in Pitt Meadows, BC, where you are welcome to contact me directly for counselling support. Visit my website at adrienne.cossomtherapy.ca
