Williamsville Wellness...
Licensed, Scholarships, Individualized Treatment
You can't treat compulsive gambling in a better setting.
Williamsville Wellness is a unique residential treatment center designed exclusively for men and women suffering from the effects of compulsive gambling. It is our conviction that problem gambling started when it was used to seek relief from the many underlying issues in their lives. The problems needed a solution, and the “solution” itself became a problem. Our treatment philosophy is that the roots of the gambling problems require identification so that they can be treated leading to recovery. Abstinence from the grips of this gambling addiction and a wholeness of the person leads to serenity and an enhanced quality of life.For this process, a totally individualized treatment plan is developed for each Williamsville Wellness client. Each compulsive gambling client receives intensive, individualized therapy: as many as 65 or more one-on-one sessions during the course of a one-month program. The treatment plan is designed with the compulsive gambler and for the compulsive gambler, and of course, this includes family members. The client has the addiction, but the addiction hurts many others, especially family members. Williamsville Wellness treatment requires that significant family members also participate in the program. They have been hurt, may be angry, fearful of the future or suffer from depression. They may have enabled the gambling. They need to understand the illness, and they need to learn how to be part of the recovery effort. Family members will have individual therapy sessions with our treatment team as needed.Williamsville Wellness is proud of its comprehensive treatment team consisting of leaders and specialists in their fields: psychologists, family therapists, addictions counselors, and of course, those who’ve walked the line, the peer counselors. These counselors understand and they know how to treat this psychiatric disorder called compulsive gambling or gambling addiction.
