This 6-hour program offers advanced competency in working with Compulsive Gambling Disorder (Gambling Disorder), the sole non-substance addictive disorder in the DSM-5. The course starts with the disorder's neurobiological and psychological foundations, progresses through comprehensive screening and assessment protocols, and culminates in advanced systemic treatment modalities. Participants will master evidence-based strategies from Motivational Interviewing (MI) and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and explore the critical integration of family therapy, pharmacotherapy, and long-term recovery support, specifically emphasizing the role of the addiction specialist in addressing this frequently under-diagnosed population.
