You meet with a clinician to review betting frequency, financial risk, mental health symptoms, and overall stability. This helps us determine whether outpatient care is appropriate or if a higher level of care is needed.

We look at recent losses, access to funds, co-occurring substance use, and safety concerns. If outpatient care is recommended, you start with a clear treatment schedule and goals.
