    NO MORE BETS, PLEASE! OVERCOMING PROBLEM GAMBLING

    Presented by H. G. Nelson with Alex Blaszczynski and Michael Walker

    This straight-talking, empowering video program offers essential information on how problem gambling develops, its damaging impact on individuals and families, and how it can successfully be treated. Through candid first-hand accounts from four recovering gamblers, along with illuminating commentary from mental health experts, the program shows gamblers, their families, and professionals:

  • How an alluring diversion becomes a shameful secret as problem gambling takes hold
  • Common myths and misperceptions about gambling-and why "winning big" is so unlikely
  • The benefits of individual and group therapy and self-help approaches
  • Ways to overcome setbacks in recovery and make meaningful, lasting changes

    Audience
  • People with gambling problems and their families. Also appropriate as a resource for self-help and support groups and a teaching tool for mental health professionals and students.

    Reviews
  • "No More Bets, Please! Should be on every practitioner's shelf. For students and trainees, this is an outstanding introduction to the harms of problem and compulsive gambling. For professionals, the DVD demonstrates empirically based techniques that are useful in any therapeutic arsenal. The DVD can be the focus of therapy or can be viewed as useful supplemental material by clients at home. For example, interviews with experts regarding the impossibility of long-term winning can be viewed and discussed with clients, as this section is aimed at directly correcting the cognitive misperceptions that categorize abusive gambling. For problem and pathological gamblers and their families No More Bets Please! Is unmatched. It shows real clients successfully employing evidence-based behavioral and cognitive techniques. What makes this DVD especially attractive is that these methods are applicable to a spectrum of problem severities. There are no magic cures, but there is hope. This is what recovery is about, and why I am excited about this video program. There simply is no other resource like this available."- William McCown, PhD, Department of Clinical Psychology, University of Louisiana at Monroe

  • "This DVD provides a comprehensive look at the downward spiral of problem gambling and the path to recovery. Interviews with gamblers reveal the allure, the misconceptions, and the behavior patterns that lead to excessive gambling-and its devastating effects. Experts provide commentary on the illogical thought patterns related to this disorder and dispel myths about the likelihood of winning large amounts of money. This program is a fitting teaching tool for students and counselors who want to know more about problem gambling, and for gamblers searching for hope and change." - Lia Nower, JD, PhD, Associate Professor and Director, Center for Gambling Studies, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey

  • "Pathological gambling is a significant public health problem, yet few clinicians are experienced in treating it. This DVD provides a comprehensive overview along with detailed descriptions of some of the latest techniques for assessing and treating patients with gambling problems. Clinicians will benefit from this useful guide, and individuals who suffer from compulsive gambling and their loved ones will find much-needed support and information."- Nancy Petry, PhD, Department of Psychiatry, University of Connecticut Health Center

    TREATING BORDERLINE PERSONALITY DISORDER: THE DIALECTICAL APPROACH

    By Marsha M. Linehan

    An important component of DBT is the use of skills training to help manage the extreme beliefs, actions, and attitudes that form the criteria for borderline personality disorder. In actual therapy sessions, the video shows Dr. Linehan teaching patients the use of such skills as mindfulness, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and emotional regulation. Vividly depicting the various stages of treatment, this program shows how DBT helps clients decrease negative behaviors and work toward personal goals. Designed for therapists, the video is also suitable for use in client and family education. In an especially compelling feature, the video includes live interview sessions between Dr. Linehan and Allen J. Frances, Chairman of the DSM-IV Task Force. In these probing dialogues, Dr. Frances asks Dr. Linehan the nuts-and-bolts questions all clinicians want answered about how DBT works and what its advantages are over other therapies.

    Reviews

They are accompanied by detailed program manuals that summarize key points and provide a guide to the literature.

    UNDERSTANDING BORDERLINE PERSONALITY DISORDER: THE DIALECTICAL APPROACH

    By Marsha M. Linehan

    A straightforward introduction for therapists, this video addresses fundamental questions about the nature of borderline personality disorder (BPD), its causes, and how it can effectively be treated with Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Dr. Linehan begins by presenting clinically relevant features of BPD and describing the underlying causes of the disorder, with an emphasis on biosocial factors. Segments of actual therapy sessions illustrate the emotional dysregulation that characterizes BPD and the intense distress that sufferers experience. Dr. Linehan discusses the development of DBT, which arose out of her realization that traditional treatments were not working with this client population, and clearly lays out its concepts and principles. In an especially compelling feature, this video includes live interview sessions between Dr. Linehan and Allen J. Frances, Chairman of the DSM-IV Task Force. In these probing dialogues, Dr. Frances asks Dr. Linehan the nuts-and-bolts questions all clinicians want answered about how DBT works and what its advantages are over other therapies.
