Compulsive Gambling Treatment
Get the tools and support you need to overcome an addiction to gambling.
Also known as gambling disorder, compulsive gambling is the uncontrollable urge to continue gambling despite the negative impact it has on your life. Gambling stimulates the brain’s reward system, just like drugs and alcohol can. This leads to addiction.
If you’re looking for help with gambler’s addiction, we are here for you. At KeyStone Center, we offer inpatient and outpatient services to help people 18 and up who are experiencing compulsive gambling. We also provide treatment for co-occurring psychiatric issues, such as depression, anxiety or substance use disorders.
