 Sierra
Tucson's comprehensive
treatment, skilled staff address a
wide range of financial disorders
including compulsive gambling and
spending.
A
compulsive gambler is defined as an
individual who suffers from a disorder
in which he/she has a psychologically
uncontrollable preoccupation or urge
to gamble. As in other compulsive
behavioral disorders, tolerance develops
and greater and more frequent gambling
risks are required to maintain mood
elevation. As the compulsion progresses,
the urge to gamble intensifies, making
it more difficult to resist. Left
untreated, compulsive gambling will
eventually interfere with almost every
aspect of one's life. The range of
compulsive gambling behaviors addressed
in treatment includes sports betting,
casino gambling, racetrack betting,
manipulation of stocks and bonds and
futures commodities, and speculative
investments. Their treatment model
focuses on feelings work, shame reduction,
understanding the basic addictive
disease concept, family therapy, and
recovery through the 12 Steps.
Treatment
emphasizes non-judgmental and non-blaming
therapy designed to assist the individual
in breaking through denial while experiencing
unconditional acceptance and guidance.

 Rimrock
Foundation - Compulsive
Gambling is a progressive behavior
disorder in which an individual has
an uncontrollable preoccupation and
urge to gamble despite negative consequences.
Gamblers
gamble because they love to gamble.
They love it more than spouse, child,
mother, or material gain. They are
addicted to the excitement and risk
created by the gambling situation.
So strong is the attachment to gambling
that the urge to gamble becomes stronger
than the desire for food, sex, or
social esteem.
Compulsive
gambling is driven by an uncontrollable
impulse to take risks that eventually
undermines everything else in the
gambler's life. Playing for ever-increasing
stakes, the compulsive gambler often
will resort to illegal activities
to obtain money, and is more likely
than any other addict to become suicidal.
The
very nature of the high tension associated
with constant risk-taking leads to
physical illness. Their program is
tailored to meet the special needs
of compulsive gamblers and their families.
They provide a warm, caring, non-judgmental
approach to treatment in a safe environment.
