- ItemConceptualizing and Treating Problem Gambling as a Family Issue [Abstract](Blackwell Publishing, 2009-10) McComb, Jennifer L.; Lee, Bonnie K.; Sprenkle, Douglas H.Few family therapists have training in the identification, assessment, and treatment of problem gambling and its impact on couple and family relationships. The authors conceptualize problem gambling (PG) as a family issue and encourage clinicians and researchers to pay attention to the systemic antecedents and consequences of PG on family relationships. A review of the literature and clinicians’ experiences regarding the impact of PG on couple and family relationships are presented and discussed. In light of the limited systemic- based treatments for PG, marriage and family therapists are urged to begin paying attention to this emerging issue that has significant couple and family ramifications.
