Contact the gambling intake worker to engage in services or for information. Individual sessions are booked for the first available appointment with a gambling counselor to begin the intake process. Services are available for anyone age 5 or over, who is experiencing problems related to gambling or who is concerned about someone else's gambling.
The assessment explores the impact of the gambling, the individual's strengths and potential for change. Upon completion of the assessment individuals are assisted in establishing a treatment plan that is based upon personal goals and needs.
Individual sessions are available. This is available for the gambler and for family members who are experiencing problems as a result of someone else's gambling.
