Dr. Sharareh Namjoo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctor of Psychology
Problem gambling can affect finances, relationships, self-esteem, and emotional well-being. The cycle of urges, secrecy, losses, and attempts to recover money can create intense shame and distress, but these struggles do not define your character.
I provide compassionate, nonjudgmental support to help clients understand their triggers, interrupt harmful patterns, manage urges, and develop healthier ways of coping with stress and difficult emotions. Together, we create practical safeguards, rebuild trust, and work toward greater stability, accountability, and freedom.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Gambling addiction and its offshoots such as crypto trading and sports betting are one of the hardest addiction to break. To get free from addiction an addict has to tell themselves and others the truth. By the time an addict has brought themselves to be truthful about their Gambling addiction, they have gambled away the family house, the family 401k, etc. Telling the truth is so excruciating that many never do it and therefore never recover.
