Gambling Disorders Program

Gambling Disorder

Betting no longer looks like a trip to a casino. Legal sports betting, round-the-clock online casinos, daily fantasy contests and the rise of prediction markets have made gambling more accessible than ever. Casual betting can quickly transition to regular betting, and eventually to a pattern of loss chasing, escalating stakes and loss of control. Disordered gambling can take hold across many forms of play, including sports and fantasy betting, online casinos and slots, poker and card rooms, prediction markets and lottery or scratch-off games.

Dangers of Disordered Gambling

Left untreated, gambling disorder tends to escalate rather than resolve on its own. Continued gambling commonly leads to significant debt, damaged relationships and family trust, and job loss, and it frequently co-occurs with depression, anxiety and substance use. Timely intervention can interrupt the cycle before financial and personal consequences deepen and can significantly improve the likelihood of a durable recovery. 

Gambling Disorders Program

The Gambling Disorders Program is a service led by expert psychiatrists who specialize in addictive disorders and have direct clinical experience with gambling's financial and behavioral complications. Care begins with a full diagnostic evaluation of gambling patterns, severity and any co-occurring conditions, followed by an individualized treatment plan. Services are office-based and include psychotherapy, medication management for co-occurring mood, anxiety or substance use conditions where clinically indicated, family-inclusive support for partners and loved ones, and relapse prevention strategies built around betting apps, casino accounts and access to funds.
