Dr. Eric Fields
You deserve someone who truly understands gambling addiction.
If you’ve tried to handle this on your own, or worked with therapists who didn’t really understand gambling, you know how frustrating it is to feel unheard. Gambling addiction is my specialty. For more than 20 years, I’ve worked with men who are successful on the outside and struggling in private, men who are tired of the secrecy, the losses, and the constant promises to stop.
When you work with me, you work with me, not a rotating staff. I keep a small caseload so I can give you my full attention, and everything we discuss is handled with complete discretion. I work with adults throughout New York and Florida.
What we will work on together
- Understanding why gambling has such a hold on you, and what it’s been doing for you
- Handling urges and triggers before they turn into bets
- Breaking the cycle of chasing losses
- Rebuilding trust with your partner and family
- Managing the stress, anxiety, or low mood that often come with gambling
- Creating a life that feels fulfilling without it
You’re not broken, and you’re not out of options. Using evidence-based strategies tailored to you, we’ll work together to break the cycle and help you get back to the life you actually want.”
