El trastorno del juego puede afectar a cualquier persona.

No importa su ingreso, educación o antecedentes - afecta a millones de personas en todo el mundo.
‍
Una encuesta nacional de enero de 2025, realizada por la Asociación Estadounidense de Psiquiatría, encontró que más de una cuarta parte de los adultos estadounidenses (28%) tienen el hábito diario de jugar en línea.

En esencia, el trastorno del juego se produce cuando las apuestas continúan incluso después de que hayan empezado a causar problemas graves en diferentes aspectos de la vida.
‍
Sin embargo, si no se aborda la crisis monetaria, las personas suelen volver a jugar como una forma de hacer frente o «arreglar» su déficit financiero, lo que a menudo se denomina perseguir pérdidas.

La sanación financiera impulsa la recuperación

Nuestros socios de apoyo conductual han compartido que cuando las personas ven un camino financiero claro hacia adelante, reemplazan la vergüenza por la esperanza y la voluntad de participar en un tratamiento que conduzca a la curación.

Abordar la deuda, la presupuestación y la administración del dinero junto con la terapia reduce el riesgo de recaída y crea una base más sólida para la recuperación a largo plazo.

Por cada trastorno del juego, 7 personas sienten las consecuencias

"... an incredible enhancement to our gambling counseling program. The financial counselors are skillful and compassionate, and once our clients begin working with the counselors, our clients regain a sense of hope to address the long-term financial impact of their gambling."

"I really like my financial counselor, Yvonne. I shared my financial background with her, and there was no judgement from her. She made me feel very comfortable and offered good suggestions. She seemed like she really cared. She even gave me advice on how to cut back my spending at restaurants and offered ideas on cheaper, healthier alternatives. I felt like she saw me as a whole person instead of just focusing on my finances."

Getting financial counseling through GamFin can be a turning point in recovery. Struggling with debt caused by gambling can feel overwhelming and isolating, but GamFin’s financial counselors truly understand what someone is going through. They provide practical guidance without judgment or shame, helping people create a realistic plan to rebuild their finances and regain control of their lives after gambling. Their empathy and expertise truly make all the difference.

GamFin helped me understand the steps I needed to take to fix tax issues when I didn’t know where to turn. The thought of dealing with overdue taxes felt overwhelming, but my counselor approached everything with understanding and without an ounce of shame. She guided me through the process step by step, making it manageable and helping me regain control. Thanks to her support and understanding, I’m back on track and finally feel a sense of relief and confidence moving forward.
Christina C
"I work with a GamFin counselor. I absolutely love him! He just got approval to continue counseling me. I use the Money Tracker he created for me once a week. I've always had a debt spreadsheet where I tracked my debt but I never tracked my spending. Nor have I ever had a budget. This Money Tracker captures everything. I look forward to our next meeting on Friday."
Hannah L
“GamFin’s financial counseling services have done wonders for our clients. Financial pressures can increase anxiety and fears for individuals in treatment for problem gambling. Working in partnership with GamFin, we can alleviate that financial stress, giving our clients hope and the relief they need to focus on getting better rather than feeling overwhelmed by debt."

“... an absolute miracle. As a problem gambling counselor, this is the service we've needed to give clients hope. When it comes to gambling addiction, the topic of money must be discussed. Our clients who have used this service come away with a realistic plan to pay off debts and rebuild financial health and still be able to live their lives.”

"... an invaluable asset in working with individuals and families touched by problem gambling. The feedback from them has been overwhelmingly positive and shows in their response to treatment. And as an added benefit I receive support and training from experts in the field of finances. Something I was never fully comfortable dealing with but is vital in the work we do."

"I have had 3 sessions with Janice from GamFin and their service is so wonderful and has truly helped my anxiety so much, which is my biggest trigger. I look at my finances, get anxiety because I want to solve my issues now, and I gamble. She has really helped us break it down and curb our spending and helped me look at the broader picture."
Nick M
I liked the ease of making a plan. When my head is spinning because of the numbers, I am calmed by Janice’s expertise.
Hannah B
"I just want to say THANK YOU for this recommendation. My state wasn’t listed but they work with people here! (New Mexico) It’s been incredible to confront and tell someone out loud about finances, and receive support to create a realistic plan to tackle debts … and in an encouraging and nonjudgmental manner."
Emma N
The counselor was beyond helpful, not only with financial advice but gambling-related advice. She pointed me in the right direction for finding a counselor to speak with about my addiction and how to get my finances in order permanently.
Sam W
"I'm always worried about my son's gambling and financial problems, especially his credit score. GamFin has helped me understand that there is a way out of debt without getting scammed by loan consolidators and lenders. I feel 100% better now after talking with the financial counselor at GamFin. I'm confident they can help him make good decisions and give him some hope out of his financial mess."
Jackie T
There is still work to do, but my counselor is ready to guide me. I am so grateful for this service.

What I like about my GamFin counselor? Her compassion, understanding ... and I left feeling hopeful for a change.

Why should I get financial counseling?

Individuals impacted by gambling-related financial issues often feel they have nowhere to turn. The added financial pressure can exacerbate anxiety and stress, which can lead to more gambling. Financial counseling can help relieve that pressure—helping you gain clarity, find a path forward, and restore hope.

How is financial counseling different?

Unlike financial advisers who focus on growing wealth, financial counselors help you address immediate financial issues and provide essential support to regain control, including managing debt, creating a spending plan, and setting up guardrails.

GamFin’s services are funded through partnerships with state governments, problem gambling councils, and other agencies committed to helping people impacted by gambling.

It’s a personalized action plan created after your initial sessions. It outlines your budget, debt repayment strategies, and practical next steps for building financial stability.

Do you manage bankruptcy?

No. Bankruptcy can sometimes be an option, but only as a last resort. For most people struggling with gambling losses, the better path is to repay debt and build a healthier relationship with money. Our counselors will help you explore alternatives first.

Do you offer loans?

No. We do not provide loans or sell financial products. Our counselors don’t earn commissions and won’t try to sell you anything.
