This study is looking at whether adding "contingency management" (CM) to standard cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can help people with gambling disorder attend their treatment sessions more regularly. CM uses incentives to encourage you to attend therapy and engage with a peer recovery specialist. CBT is a common type of talk therapy. The study aims to see if CM can make CBT more effective by helping more people complete their treatment. You might be able to join if you are an adult (18 or older) seeking treatment for gambling concerns at The Gambling Clinic, can attend weekly sessions for eight weeks, and are proficient in English. The main goal is to see how many sessions people attend out of the total eight weeks of treatment. The current status of this study is unclear, and it plans to enroll 80 participants.
