What Kind of Help Is Available for Gambling Addicts?

There’s not a lot out there for gamblers. There are surprisingly few treatment centers in the United States that specialize in gambling. There are very few professionals, such as myself, who specialize in gambling and to be fully honest my experience with gamblers, even personally, hasn’t been so hot. Gamblers are notoriously difficult clients to treat. They tend to be often impulsive, tend to have little patience and the addiction often has a hold on them. Of course there’s Gambler’s Anonymous, GA, but beyond that there are virtually no self-help support groups I’d like to recommend Smart Recovery for those of you who’d like to try a cognative approach to gambling, It doesn’t specialize, per se in gambling, but the tools are the same for gambling as for alcohol and drug and will be welcome in a Smart Recovery meeting.
