What is
Problem Gambling?

Problem gambling, also known as gambling addiction or gambling disorder, occurs when a person is unable to resist impulses to gamble and continues to gamble despite harmful consequences. Gambling disorder is classified as an addiction and its essential features include loss of control over gambling, preoccupation with gambling, increasing need to bet more money and an inability to stop or cut back gambling. In severe cases, gambling disorder can result in financial ruin, legal problems, loss of career or family, and even suicide.

New Time Recovery partners with the California Department of Public Health to help you or a loved one with gambling problems.  The California Department of Public Health works with the CalGETS program, which is a treatment program for individuals with a gambling disorder and those who are negatively impacted by problem gambling behavior.

Therapists and counselors at New Time Recovery are specially trained in optimizing the Matrix model to the needs of each individual client, creating a highly personalized path to recovery. The Matrix helps both clients and and their families understand addiction while taking steps to create a lifestyle of recovery. These are the key principles that make the Matrix model a success.

Based heavily on the relationship between the therapist and the client, the Matrix model aids an individual in more positively defining their sense of self and self-confidence. This therapeutic approach is a non-confrontational and collaborative partnership as the therapist becomes an advocate for the client as they progress through recovery.
