Are There Any Addiction Treatment Centers in Atherton, California That Address Cases of Gambling Addiction?

Question by colleen_li: Are there any addiction treatment centers in Atherton, California that address cases of gambling addiction?
I’m doing a report on gambling for one of my classes and I would like to find more information regarding gambling addiction. I figured that since I don’t know someone who is afflicted with such a disorder, I’d go directly to treatment centers so that I may interview a patient.

To find addiction treatment centers, just use the links below. You can also call up the local health services department and get a list of treatment centers from them. I don’t think you’ll get to interview patients, though. I think it’s against the rules of treatment centers. They can be very strict regarding patients’ privacy. Maybe you can just interview the counselors instead. Good luck! I hope you get all the information you need.

I’m not sure that you will be able to interview a patient, but if you go to www.addicted.com on the left hand side they have an area where you pick an addiction and then type in your zip code and it will bring up all the closest treatment centers to that zip code. Good luck!
