Are There Any Addiction Treatment Centers in Atherton, California That Address Cases of Gambling Addiction?

Question by colleen_li: Are there any addiction treatment centers in Atherton, California that address cases of gambling addiction?
I’m doing a report on gambling for one of my classes and I would like to find more information regarding gambling addiction. I figured that since I don’t know someone who is afflicted with such a disorder, I’d go directly to treatment centers so that I may interview a patient.

To find addiction treatment centers, just use the links below. You can also call up the local health services department and get a list of treatment centers from them. I don’t think you’ll get to interview patients, though. I think it’s against the rules of treatment centers. They can be very strict regarding patients’ privacy. Maybe you can just interview the counselors instead. Good luck! I hope you get all the information you need.
