The compulsive gambling program at ALGAMUS acknowledges the seriousness of gambling addiction.  This gambling specific program allows our patients to experience and practice important skills needed in order to achieve a successful recovery from a gambling addiction.

We believe that recovery from gambling addiction is possible and that it requires an interdisciplinary approach.  Therefore, we offer a variety of therapy designed to address specific issues and concerns of our patients.  Gambling addicts attend gambling specific groups, work with a team of Nationally Certified Gambling Counselors, financial pressure relief counselors, and Addiction Psychologist to address both the emotional and practical issues of gambling addiction.

Our program is highly individualized, has a low client to therapist ratio, and is designed to address specific issues as they arise.  We believe this approach, accompanied with mutual support and the introduction to the twelve-step program of Gamblers Anonymous (GA) will bring about a transformation that will allow the patient to resume life with a renewed sense of well-being, responsibility and purpose.
