Problem Gambling - Applications of Case Studies

Problem Gambling - Applications of Case Studies

This training outlines a series of case studies for training therapists in treating gambling disorders. The case studies cover diverse demographics such as adolescents, older adults, women, cultural minorities, trauma survivors, individuals with chronic illnesses, and those involved in the criminal justice or military systems. Each case study includes sections on background, presenting problem, DSM criteria, other assessments, and treatment plans. 

Learners are asked to identify DSM criteria and treatment plan options based on their knowledge. A comprehensive summary of the case is then provided, followed by reflection questions for discussion based on the student’s own expertise and training. The training emphasizes the importance of understanding the unique needs and challenges of each individual when developing a treatment plan and providing treatment.
