The Advanced Training, Treating the Family for Gambling, focuses on the critical role families play in both the development and recovery of gambling-related problems. This session explores how gambling impacts family systems, including relationships, communication patterns, and overall well-being. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of family dynamics affected by gambling and learn practical, evidence-informed strategies to engage and support family members in the treatment and recovery process.

Designed for clinicians and professionals, this training emphasizes building skills to assess family needs, strengthen support systems, and incorporate family-centered approaches into prevention and treatment efforts.
