Who We Are
A Legacy of Hope and Healing
Established in 1988, Prescott House has been a beacon of hope for men facing addiction and behavioral health challenges. For over three decades, we've earned a reputation for success by offering individuals a positive environment and the time needed to heal. We're not just another treatment center; we're a community where you can find understanding, support, and a path forward.
Our Specialized Focus
While we handle a range of addictions, including sexual and process addictions, substance abuse, and overarching mental health issues, our niche in gambling addiction recovery sets us apart. Gambling addiction is a complex condition that often intertwines with other behavioral and mental health challenges. At Prescott House, we address these interconnections to ensure comprehensive and effective treatment.
Our Approach to Gambling Addiction Recovery
Long-Term Recovery for Lasting Change
We believe that long-term recovery is best achieved through long-term treatment. Quick fixes don't lead to lasting change. That's why we provide the time and space you need to truly heal—mind, body, and spirit. Our experienced staff is committed to quality treatment that increases the possibility for successful, long-term sobriety.
Why Long-Term Treatment Matters
Gambling addiction often involves deeply rooted behavioral patterns and emotional triggers. A longer-term approach allows individuals to thoroughly understand and address these underlying issues. At Prescott House, our extended programs offer the stability and support necessary to rebuild your life and develop new, healthier habits.
Holistic Healing: Mind, Body, and Spirit
Our approach goes beyond traditional treatment plans and therapy sessions. We focus on holistic healing, addressing the recovery of the mind, body, and spirit. This comprehensive method ensures that every aspect of your well-being is nurtured, fostering a balanced and sustainable recovery.

We incorporate evidence-based practices and innovative therapies to help you navigate the complexities of gambling addiction. Our goal is to equip you with the tools and strategies necessary for long-term success.
Creating an Honest and Supportive Environment
At Prescott House, it's about being in a place where you can be honest—not just with others, but with yourself. We foster a culture of openness where you can confront the underlying issues that fuel your addiction without judgment. This honesty is crucial for genuine healing and personal growth.
Safe Spaces for Vulnerability
We understand that admitting to a gambling problem takes immense courage. Our supportive environment ensures that you feel safe to express your struggles and triumphs. This vulnerability is a key component of the healing process, allowing you to build trust and form meaningful connections.

Addressing Modern Gambling Challenges: Sports Betting and Online Gambling
The Rise of Online and Sports Betting
In recent years, the landscape of gambling has evolved dramatically with the rise of online platforms and sports betting. These modern forms of gambling offer unprecedented accessibility, making it easier than ever to place bets anytime and anywhere. While this convenience can be enticing, it also presents new challenges for those struggling with gambling addiction.
Understanding the Impact of Online Gambling
Online gambling and sports betting are designed to be engaging and user-friendly, often incorporating features that encourage continuous play. The ease of access can lead to excessive gambling behaviors, as individuals may find it difficult to set limits or take breaks. Additionally, the anonymity of online gambling can reduce the perceived risks, making it easier to lose track of time and money spent.
The Allure of Sports Betting
Sports betting, in particular, has surged in popularity, especially with major sports events like the Super Bowl, World Cup, and other global competitions. The excitement and adrenaline associated with sports betting can make it highly addictive. The constant updates, live betting options, and the potential for quick wins can keep individuals hooked, often leading to significant financial and emotional consequences.
The Unique Challenges of Online Gambling
Online gambling presents unique challenges that require specialized approaches in treatment:
- 24/7 Availability: The constant availability of online gambling sites means that individuals can gamble at any time, making it harder to avoid triggers.
- Easy Access to Funds: Online platforms often offer quick and easy access to funds, facilitating larger and more frequent bets.
- Social Isolation: While some online gambling platforms have social features, the solitary nature of online gambling can lead to increased isolation and reliance on digital interactions rather than in-person support.
The Importance of a Gradual Transition
Building a New Way of Life
Gambling addiction recovery is not just about stopping the behavior; it's about building a new way of life. At Prescott House, we see much better success with clients who continue services for a long time and truly build a new way of life. Our gradual transition approach allows you to integrate new habits and coping mechanisms at a comfortable pace, ensuring that your recovery is sustainable.
Step-by-Step Progress
Our programs are designed to guide you through each stage of recovery, providing the necessary support and resources at every step. This structured approach helps you build confidence and resilience as you move forward.
Continued Support for Long-Term Success
Recovery doesn't end when you leave our center. We offer ongoing support and resources to help you maintain your progress and navigate any challenges that arise. This continued support is crucial for long-term success and prevents relapse.
Aftercare Programs
Our aftercare programs provide a seamless transition from treatment to everyday life. These programs include regular check-ins, support groups, and access to resources that help you stay on track and continue your journey toward a healthier, addiction-free life.
