Wholeview Unveils New Statewide Virtual Program to Tackle Growing Gambling Addiction Crisis in New York
In response to the escalating crisis of gambling addiction in New York State, Wholeview announces the launch of Wholeview RESET, a comprehensive, fully virtual treatment program for individuals and families affected by problem gambling. This expansion follows Wholeview's recent designation by the NYS Office of Addiction Services and Supports (OASAS) to provide specialized care for gambling disorders as part of its comprehensive outpatient program.
NEW YORK, April 22, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Gambling addiction is on the rise, impacting thousands of New Yorkers and their loved ones. Wholeview RESET is designed to meet this urgent need by offering accessible, evidence-based care, no matter where you are in the state. "We are thrilled to expand our services with the NYS OASAS Problem Gambling designation, which enables us to address the growing need for specialized care for people struggling with problematic gambling and gambling disorders," said Dr. Sarah Church, CEO and Founder of Wholeview.
What Sets Wholeview RESET Apart?
-- Integrated, Evidence-Based Treatment: The program's foundation is
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), proven to help individuals identify
and change the thoughts and behaviors that fuel gambling. Motivational
Interviewing (MI) further supports patients in building motivation for
lasting change.
-- Medication and Mental Health Support: While no medication is
FDA-approved specifically for gambling disorder, Wholeview RESET
clinicians evaluate and, when appropriate, prescribe medications like
naltrexone or antidepressants to address urges and co-occurring mental
health conditions such as depression or anxiety.
-- Financial Counseling: Recognizing the financial devastation gambling can
cause, the program offers practical support to help individuals regain
stability and rebuild their lives.
-- Family Empowerment: Through CRAFT family training, loved ones learn
effective strategies to support recovery and restore healthy
relationships, reducing conflict and fostering hope.
-- Peer and Group Support: Patients are encouraged to join group therapy
and mutual aid organizations like Gamblers Anonymous, building community
and accountability throughout recovery.
