Pathological gambling is becoming increasingly common, especially among young men. Those affected find themselves in financial trouble and conflicts with their environment as they continually seek to recover lost money. Gambling increasingly occupies their thoughts and actions, leading to the breakdown of social relationships, debt, workplace issues, and self-esteem problems, with the risk of psychological crises looming. In addition to the group program, Premper and Sobottka address the specifics of individual treatment, the counseling setting, and aftercare in their treatment manual. The 10 basic modules can be supplemented with 9 optional modules. Content includes: psychoeducation/information, motivational clarification, formulation of individual change goals, behavioral diagnostics of gambling behavior, self-management - development of alternative behaviors, and behavioral diagnostics of the individual.
