Family Recovery
Gambling doesn't happen in isolation. It damages the entire family system: partners live with betrayal and financial trauma, children absorb the tension, parents watch helplessly, and siblings lose their trust. Recovery that focuses only on the gambler is incomplete. This course addresses the family as a unit, repairing communication, rebuilding trust, addressing co-dependency patterns, supporting children affected by gambling, and creating a family recovery plan that heals everyone, not just the person who gambled.
