Gambling
Gary D. Alexander
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, MFT, NCC
Problem gambling often develops gradually, becoming a way of coping with stress, emotional pain, or a desire to escape difficult feelings. Rather than focusing solely only on stopping the behavior itself, our work explores the emotional and relational patterns that may be fueling the urge to gamble. As these patterns become more understood and new ways of responding take shape, many people begin to regain a sense of control, stability, and balance in their lives.

Dr. Cara Bussell, PhD, LLC
Psychologist
Gambling can start as entertainment but may grow into a source of stress, financial strain, and emotional distress. I work with adults who are concerned about their gambling habits or are struggling to regain a sense of stability and control. Using evidence-based approaches such as motivational interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and psychoeducation, I help clients explore their behaviors, build healthier coping strategies, and reconnect with what matters most. If gambling is interfering with your well-being or relationships, I invite you to reach out for a free consultation.
