The Gambling Clinic
The Gambling Clinic
Our clinic is the oldest clinic in the US that focuses exclusively on gambling problems. Over 1,500 individuals have partnered with us to make big changes in their lives.
Our success is based on using our evidence-based knowledge about how to work with people to create change specifically in their gambling behavior. Over the years, we have continually refined the help we offer and the evaluations we complete to optimize the efficiency and effectiveness of the work we do. Our evidence supports individuals’ treatment tailored to helping each person optimize their skills and controls over their gambling. The treatment has five phases, and the path through those phases depends on the person’s needs while typically taking 8 to 10 sessions.
We are here to help you develop the skills you need to meet your treatment goals. You are in the driver’s seat, and we are experts in helping you drive safely.

Does the Treatment Work?
We have become confident that a person who can complete the five phases will realize a significant reduction in gambling problems, a decrease in gambling frequency, and an improvement in general well-being. Our research supports that over 87% of those who seek help for gambling problems will benefit. And dedicated individuals who partner with us for change will see success in their treatment.
Where to Find Us
The Gambling Clinic presently has physical clinics in Memphis and Johnson City for those looking for in-person help. If you live far away or would rather meet remotely with a therapist, you can opt for a telehealth appointment via a secure and confidential Zoom call. Over the last three years, we have learned how to maximize client success when meeting in-person or over Zoom.

The Gambling Lab
Our commitment in the research lab has centered on learning how to help people change, assessing gambling problems, and promoting awareness and prevention efforts.
Consequently, we have made significant and important contributions to the problem gambling research literature. Our work has been cited by many and used to formulate gambling regulations in several countries around the world. All three members of our leadership team (Drs. Ginley, Pfund, and Whelan) are ranked among the top gambling researchers in the US and among the top 25 gambling researchers in the world. In 2022, Dr. Whelan received the Distinguished Scientific Achievement Award from the International Center for Responsible Gambling.
