Youth Gambling & Sports Betting Counseling
Support for teens and young adults affected by online gambling and betting.
Gambling looks different in young people.
It’s faster.
More private.
More digital.
More normalized.
And harder for parents to see.
By the time families notice, patterns may already be forming.
My Approach
I combine clinical training with lived experience as a parent.
That means:
No minimizing
No shaming
No overreacting
No pretending it’s “no big deal”
We take it seriously and handle it carefully.
Who This Is For
Is losing money regularly
This support may help if your child:
Hides gambling activity
Lies about betting
Struggles academically
Is emotionally volatile around sports
Can’t stop despite consequences
Working With Young People
When appropriate and agreed upon, I may work directly with your child.
This always happens with care, consent, and family involvement.
No one is forced.
