Gambling Addiction Treatment

About Our Program

Algamus is one of the only gambling-specific treatment programs in the United States, and has been treating gamblers for 30 years.

We offer a 5-6 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.

Who Should Attend Algamus?

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

Types of Treatment

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: 

 

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy: You will work with one of our Internationally Certified Gambling Counselors to help get to the root of your compulsive gambling disorder and learn practical steps to overcoming it.
  • 12-Step Programs: We introduce our clients to the 12 Step Program of Gamblers Anonymous which enables the gambler to take responsibility for their past behavior, and provide a new perspective that allows them to move forward.

  • Enneagram: Our therapists will guide you in how to use the Enneagram for self-exploration, healing, personal transformation and growth.
  • Group Therapy: You will meet daily with the rest of the group for a group therapy session. This is where you will get to hear the experiences of others, and share your own journey as a method of healing.
  • Aftercare Support: You are not alone, even after leaving the Algamus treatment facility.


Aftercare Program

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 for 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.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Testimonials
"

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."

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 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 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.
