Read MoreAlgamus is one of the only gambling-specific treatment programs in the United States, and has been treating gamblers for 30 years.
We offer a 5-week stay at our mountain lodge, where our certified gambling counselors help guide you in making the behavioral changes needed to create a life of fulfilment, free from gambling.
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):
We recognize that treatment is not a one-size-fits-all, and that individuals respond to treatment methods differently. That’s why we offer a variety of treatment methods, including:
Recovery is an ongoing process, and returning to your regular life after treatment can be a difficult adjustment, but you are not alone.
During your time at Algamus, our staff will develop an individualized aftercare treatment plan for you to help you navigate your daily life and manage your triggers when you return home. We keep in contact with you even after you have left Algamus by having consistent check-in calls.
Individuals who complete our gambling-specific program find greater success when followed up with gambling-informed aftercare.
I didn't take ownership of having a problem until I went to my first Algamus meeting...When they went around the room and each person described what their game of choice was and how they processed it emotionally and mentally, it was only at that moment that I said, “wow, they are like me.”
Algamus Client in Recovery
Algamus provided the information, support, and ongoing guidance necessary for me to successfully recover from my addiction. Without them I don’t know if I would be where I am today; 8 months later, free from my addiction for the first time in almost 20 years of struggle.

Algamus provided me the foundation needed to jump start my road to recovery. The programs, interactions with staff and group bonding put me on the path to a better way of life. The program truly saved my life!
Algamus Client in Recovery
Algamus saved my life and my family. It has taken a few years to earn back the trust and respect I had lost, but I am blessed to be healthier and happier than I would have believed possible.
A special "Thank you" to Rick Benson and crew. I'm humbled by the work that you do.
Algamus Client in Recovery
If you are struggling. If you are out of control. If you just want all the craziness of chasing money and falling further and further behind, to stop, let these good people help you! They are so well trained, many former gambling addicts themselves. They know what they're doing. All of my fellows in recovery had different patterns, styles and games and yet the staff worked wonders with them all. They knew the different types we were and how to maximize treatment effectiveness. Last I heard, we were all doing great post-rehab. I know I have placed my last bet in this lifetime."
