    Gambling addiction is more than just a bad habit—it’s a serious problem that can destroy lives. If you or someone you love is struggling with gambling, you’re not alone. At Peace and Power Counseling in Omaha, we provide compassionate, client-centered therapy to help you stop the pain and start healing.

    Do You Have a Gambling Problem?

    Many people don’t realize they have a gambling problem until it’s too late. Ask yourself:

    • Do you spend more money on gambling than you can afford?

    • Do you lie about your gambling habits?

    • Has gambling hurt your job or relationships?

    • Do you use gambling to escape stress or bad moods?

    • Have you borrowed money just to keep gambling?

    If you answered yes to any of these, it’s time to get help. Gambling doesn’t just hurt the gambler—it tears families apart, causes financial ruin, and leads to emotional breakdowns. The good news? Recovery is possible.

    How Peace and Power Counseling Can Help

    We specialize in gambling addiction treatment and have a contract with the Nebraska Gamblers’ Assistance Program, which means our services are free for those who qualify. Even better—your loved ones can also get counseling at no cost while you’re in treatment.

    If you prefer to pay privately, we also accept some insurance plans and private payments. Our goal is to make help accessible to everyone who needs it.

    Our Approach to Gambling Addiction Treatment

    There’s no one-size-fits-all solution for gambling addiction. That’s why we create personalized treatment plans for each client. Our approach includes:

    • One-on-one counseling – Work directly with a caring therapist who understands addiction.

    • Family support – Gambling affects the whole family, so we help them heal too.

    • Confidential care – Your privacy is our priority.

    Our licensed gambling counselor has years of experience helping people break free from addiction. She will support you, challenge you, and guide you toward a healthier life.

    The Hidden Dangers of Gambling Addiction

    Gambling addiction is often called the “hidden addiction” because there are no physical signs, like with drugs or alcohol. But the damage is just as real. Many gamblers face:

    • Financial ruin – Debt, loans, and even bankruptcy.

    • Broken relationships – Lies and betrayal destroy trust.

    • Mental health struggles – Anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts.

    You don’t have to live this way. Help is here.

    Anxiety Counseling: Breaking Free from Fear and Stress

    Many people with gambling problems also struggle with anxiety. The stress of hiding losses, dealing with debt, and facing consequences can feel overwhelming. At Peace and Power Counseling, we offer anxiety counseling to help you:

    • Reduce stress – Learn healthy ways to cope.

    • Regain control – Stop feeling trapped by fear.

    • Rebuild confidence – Move forward with hope.

    Whether your anxiety comes from gambling or other life challenges, we provide effective, personalized therapy to help you feel better.
