    • Abstract:
      An interview with Doctor Ken Martz, director of training & staff development at Williamsville, Virginia, is presented. When asked about the uniqueness of the center, he cites that the center is the only U.S. residential program licensed to treat gambling addiction. Doctor Martz shares that few people know how severe, powerful and dangerous gambling addiction is, as it's self-perpetuating. He also comments that patients need to develop skills to maintain long-term sobriety from any addiction.
