Abstract	This project provides a comprehensive overview of the research literature on problem gambling in adults and includes a detailed mindfulness-based psychoeducational group manual for problem gambling, complete with an extensive group counselling consent form, assessment and screening protocols, 10 user-friendly lesson plans, templates for a marketing poster and session notes, ample client handouts, and facilitator notes. The literature review commences with the definition of problem gambling and continues with a discussion regarding the maintenance, prevalence, psychosocial costs, and consequences of problem gambling. The literature review concludes highlighting the definition of mindfulness, its effectiveness, the relevance and effectiveness of mindfulness-based therapy for problem gambling, and the effectiveness of group therapy for problem gambling. The project devotes substantial consideration to the treatment of problem gambling using mindfulness-based cognitive therapy. One of the strengths of this project is it addressed the lack of resources in rural areas for problem gamblers.
