Our Gambling Treatment Programs
Accredited, Trusted Gambling Addiction Treatment
Algamus is one of the only residential gambling treatment programs in the United States that has been treating gambling addiction and the unique issues related to it for over 30 years. Many of our staff are in recovery from gambling addiction and their experiences will make them well positioned to understand how gambling infiltrates every aspect of your life.
Our 5-week residential treatment programs are set in a beautiful home in the scenic desert in Goodyear, AZ and are tailored to meet the individual needs of each person. Our certified gambling counselors help guide you in making the behavioral adjustments necessary to create a fulfilling life free from gambling.
Algamus offers the only JCAHO-accredited, gambling-specific residential program in the US. We only treat gambling addiction and related disorders affecting our clients, and we're proud of our high staff-to-client ratio. A client's stay is typically 5 weeks, and is followed by an individualized aftercare program.
Our Treatment Programs Are Tailored to Your Needs
Residential Gambling Addiction Treatment
We believe that a gambling addiction should be treated with the same urgency as a substance use disorder or a physical health disease. You don’t have to have failed at Gamblers Anonymous or outpatient counseling before attending Algamus. Regardless of where you’re at in your struggle with gambling, we want to help get you on the right path.
We serve men and women across the country from all walks of life and all types of gambling addiction including (but not limited to):
- Sports betting
- Poker & Blackjack
- Slot machines
- Stock trading & cryptocurrency
- Online games
Our experienced therapists, psychiatrists, and certified gambling counselors work with clients to help them uncover the root causes of their gambling so that they can build their lives back up.
Beyond daily group sessions and individual therapy with a primary gambling therapist or counselor, clients will have the opportunity to participate in alternative therapies, and day trips to surrounding areas like Sedona. Learn more about our facility.
Taking the opportunity to get away from one's home environment can be extremely beneficial for the gambler. Removing oneself from the stressors of everyday life and having uninterrupted time to devote to their recovery can be crucial in the healing process.
Gambling Treatment for Women
At Algamus, we are committed to providing a safe space for women to address and heal from gambling disorder. Our mission is to create an environment where women can slow down and begin recovering from the effects of addictive gambling on themselves, their loved ones, friends, and employers.
The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a significant increase in women seeking help for addiction, with 3,005 women contacting the GamCare helpline in the past year. While both men and women can develop gambling problems, they often manifest differently.
Our co-ed program helps women tackle the challenges of gambling addiction and any underlying mental health issues they may be experiencing
Sports Betting & Young Adults
Over the last few years we’ve noticed an alarming increase in calls from parents looking for help for their college-aged kids. With the overwhelming accessibility and prevalence of sports betting, more and more young adults are getting sucked into problem gambling as a social activity with their peers. This compulsive gambling may start out innocently enough but as the stakes get higher, grades start slipping and the financial strain can be devastating.
Our 5 week program in Goodyear, Arizona equips college students with the tools they need to overcome any form of gambling addiction, from sports betting to online games. Our experienced team of therapists, psychiatrists, and counselors will guide you to uncover the root causes of your addiction and empower you to build a healthy future.
Taking time out of school to get help for sports betting isn’t ideal, but not addressing it is a risk you don’t want to take. Get help now, while going back to school next semester is still an option.
