What is a Gambling Addiction?
If you are reading this, chances are that you or someone you care about has a problem with gambling. Some of the most common warning signs include:
- Being unable to control the urge to gamble, despite the harm it causes
- Losing track of time and gambling for longer than you meant to
- Spending more money than you planned, or more than you can afford
- “Chasing your losses” to try to win back your money
- Using gambling to escape from personal or work problems, and to get relief from anxiety and depression
- Feeling hopeless, helpless, guilty and ashamed of your gambling
What Causes A Gambling or Casino Addiction?
It is generally accepted that addiction to gambling or an addiction to the casino, is not caused by a single factor, but rather by a combination of genetic and environmental influences.
An increase in gambling can be triggered by a variety of factors including stress, mental health issues, problems at work, relationship difficulties, loss, and so on. The bottom line is, if there are problems or stress in your life – or your loved one’s life – due to gambling, there is a gambling problem. Now is the time to act.

How Our Gambling Rehab Program Works
At Newgate 180, we know each client is unique and we do not use a “one size fits all” approach in our rehabilitation programs. To start, you will undergo a comprehensive assessment and your dedicated counsellor will develop a treatment plan that’s right for you.
We offer a minimum of 2-3 individual counselling sessions per week in which you can share whatever’s on your mind. In these sessions, we will also help you address factors that contribute to your gambling. Did you know that a gambling addiction or problem is often associated with substance abuse issues, unmanaged ADHD, stress, depression, anxiety, or bipolar disorder? Your individualized treatment plan will help you address such co-occurring issues. Moreover, we will help you put your finances in order, start healing and rebuilding family relationships, and deal with other life problems.
Through our holistic program that includes individual and group counselling, art therapy, AA, yoga, fitness training, leisure/recreation, and proper nutrition, you will learn how to create a life worth living without gambling.
You will work with a Relapse Prevention Counsellor to develop your own Recovery Plan that will be your personalized “road map” for when you leave Newgate 180. As you learn, heal and grow, you will become empowered to take control of your recovery. You will learn to believe in yourself.
At Newgate 180, you will rediscover your values and renew your sense of worth. As you become increasingly well mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually, you will discover a renewed sense of meaning and purpose. We don’t just want you to heal – we want you to thrive.
