The supplier of player protection software Mindway AI announced a new deal with the leader in gambling addiction treatment AnonyMind. With the ultimate goal to generate solutions that effectively identify players who are at risk and assist them in addressing their addiction before it is a serious issue.
Both companies will combine their player protection technologies and expertise in treating problem gambling with premium treatments to provide top-notch solutions for operators.
Mindway AI announced earlier in the month a similar partnership DouraSchawohl Consultancy, which the chief executive officer of the former called “a fantastic start to something awesome”.
Early signs of problem gambling behaviors
Mindway AI uses its advanced software, which relies on machine-learning algorithms as well as assessments by human psychologists in order to identify risky gambling behaviors.
Mindway AI software detects early warning signs of problematic behavior with the help of advanced data analytics based on player data from neuroimaging and neuroscience .
Operators will be able to gain the insight they need to successfully combat gambling addiction. Mindway AI’s revolutionary technology is already being used by many online gambling platforms in 21 different countries. The software is used by over 6 million active players on a monthly basis.
All operators that choose to integrate Mindway AI’s software will have the option to provide their players with direct access to AnonyMind’s expert counseling solutions. This will allow them to be proactive in preventing gambling addictions and treating them.
AnonyMind CarePlus Services
AnonyMind focuses on providing psychological treatment based on scientific evidence and tailored needs for individuals who are struggling with addiction. This will be achieved through CarePlus Services, which will be provided fully regulated and accredited clinical psychologists.
Lists will include such treatment schemes as Third Wave Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy models, high intensity cognitive-behavioral therapies, dialectical behavioral-based therapies, and eye-movement desensitization-and-reprocessing therapy.
Third Wave Cognitive-Behavioral Therapies place the emphasis on holistic promotion of psychological processes and behavioral patterns tied to health and well-being, rather than the reduction or elimination of emotional and mental symptoms.
These therapies typically incorporate concepts such as acceptance, spirituality and mindfulness.
Dialectical behavioral-informed therapiesteach the patient how to be more mindful, and concentrate all of their attention and thoughts in order to achieve effective results.
The same therapy focuses on increasing tolerance and acceptance of stressful situations and finding ways to survive and tolerate problems, without engaging in any problematic behavior.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapies are comprehensive forms of therapy that help patients recover from their past experiences with the aid of structured eye movements and talk therapy.
AnonyMind matches individuals with the best therapists, who then create fully tailored treatments using a clinical formula that is specific to their needs. AnonyMind can also help the families of problem gamblers.
