Professional contemplating new beginnings at sunrise

Program Overview

Our 10-day intensive program is designed for professionals balancing work, relationships, and daily responsibilities while addressing gambling challenges. It provides structured, research-informed support without requiring extended time away from real life, offering a practical alternative to traditional residential programs.

This specialized program combines focused treatment, structured learning, and real-world skill building to help participants make meaningful progress in a shorter timeframe. For a day-by-day overview of what each stage covers, explore our detailed program breakdown. Rather than removing participants from their environment, the program provides practical tools, behavior-science-informed strategies, and ongoing support they can apply right away.

The focus is long-term progress — helping individuals build stability, strengthen relationships, and move forward with clarity after the program ends.

Elaris provides behavioral health treatment for gambling addiction. We do not operate casinos, sportsbooks, betting apps, wagering tools, or gambling promotion services.

What Sets Our Program Apart

Cohort-Based Continuity

As part of our program, all clients begin and move through the experience together. This cohort-based structure builds meaningful peer support and shared accountability — both important for long-term progress.

Expanded One-on-One Support

As part of our program, clients receive increased individual support sessions compared to traditional program formats. This added one-on-one time allows for more personalized guidance and meaningful progress within a focused timeframe.

Integrated Real-World Access

As part of our program, clients keep their phones and may continue working remotely when appropriate. Rather than removing access, we focus on teaching safe, structured use of technology.

To support progress, blocking software can be added and clients are guided on how to use their devices responsibly while navigating real-world triggers. Allowing remote work helps clients maintain stability, reduce stress, and stay engaged in the program without the added pressure of putting life entirely on hold.

Private Environment

Clients stay in individual rooms to ensure privacy, comfort, and space for personal focus. This non-institutional setting supports a sense of comfort, reflection, and a smoother transition back into daily life as part of our program.

Curriculum-Based Aftercare for Long-Term Progress

As part of our program, Elaris includes a full year of structured, curriculum-based aftercare designed to support continued progress. Unlike traditional residential programs that end after the initial phase, our program provides ongoing guidance, accountability, and progressive learning beyond the first 10 days — helping clients maintain meaningful change in everyday life.

Standardized Curriculum, Learned Together

Our program follows a structured curriculum where every participant learns the same material at the same time. This shared learning environment allows clients to learn not only from facilitators, but from one another — strengthening insight, accountability, and long-term progress through peer experience.

Multi-Modality Learning Approach

As part of our program, groups are co-facilitated by multiple facilitators, allowing participants to gain varied perspectives while engaging different learning styles. This shared approach strengthens understanding, retention, and real-world application — supporting long-term progress.

01

As part of our program, clear and structured teaching helps clients understand how gambling influences thinking patterns, what triggers, and how habits form over time. This program provides practical, research-informed strategies that clients can use right away to support long-term progress.

02

As part of our program, clients practice real-world situations they struggle with — managing urges, responding to triggers, and making decisions under pressure. This program uses guided exercises and supported scenarios so skills aren't just discussed, but experienced and reinforced in ways that support long-term progress.

03

As part of our program, clients move forward alongside others facing similar challenges. This cohort-based structure creates strong accountability, shared understanding, and connection — helping participants feel less isolated and more supported as they work toward long-term progress.

04

As part of our program, clients learn how to use technology safely and intentionally. This structured program integrates apps and digital tools that help manage urges, increase awareness, and build routine — preparing participants to navigate the digital world with stronger confidence and control skills that support long-term progress.

Addressing Co-Occurring Issues

Person finding peace and calm in nature

Gambling challenges rarely exist on their own. As part of our program, we help clients understand and address the underlying factors that can influence gambling behavior.

Within this program, our professional team supports clients as they work through challenges such as:

  • Stress and burnout
  • Relationship strain
  • Feelings of guilt or shame
  • Ongoing pressure

By addressing these connected factors alongside gambling behavior, the program supports a more well-rounded recovery process focused on meaningful long-term progress.

Recovery requires more than simply stopping behavior. It involves understanding the patterns, needs, and coping habits that may contribute to it.

This integrated approach supports long-term stability, emotional resilience, and healthier decision-making across work, relationships, and daily life — creating a stronger foundation for lasting progress.

Effective progress involves more than simply stopping gambling behavior.

Meaningful change goes beyond the behavior itself — it includes understanding the emotional patterns, unmet needs, and coping habits that may influence it. As part of our program, clients learn to recognize these factors and develop healthier responses.

Within this program, behavior and contributing influences are addressed together in a coordinated way. This integrated approach supports long-term stability, emotional resilience, and healthier decision-making across work, relationships, and daily life, creating a stronger foundation for long-term progress.

Family Involvement

Family reconnecting through therapy

Gambling challenges affect the whole family. As part of our program, we support loved ones in understanding these challenges, rebuilding trust, and improving communication — helping support long-term progress for everyone involved.

Family Workshops

As part of our program, we offer family workshops designed to help loved ones understand gambling challenges, their emotional impact, and the recovery process. These sessions provide practical guidance on communication, boundaries, and support, designed to help families feel more confident and involved in long-term progress.

Family support and healing

Family Therapy

As part of our program, clients and their families participate in weekly guided family sessions focused on rebuilding trust, improving communication, and supporting long-term progress.

In addition, individual family members in many states may access separate one-on-one support to help process the impact of a loved one's gambling challenges. When appropriate, we help connect family members with qualified providers across most of the U.S., with some services potentially available at reduced cost depending on location and eligibility.

This approach is designed to support both the family as a whole and everyone within the program.

Financial Counseling & Recovery Planning

Planning and taking control of finances

Gambling addiction often creates financial chaos, confusion, and shame. As part of our gambling addiction program, clients receive access to one-on-one financial counseling to help rebuild financial stability in a supportive, judgment-free environment.

Clients work directly with a financial counselor to understand where money is going, address gambling-related debt, and create a realistic budget and financial recovery plan. This gambling specific program also includes group sessions focused on financial education, helping clients learn practical strategies for managing money, reducing debt, and restoring a sense of control.

By addressing the financial impact of gambling alongside emotional and behavioral recovery, clients gain clarity, rebuild their financial foundation, and move forward with greater confidence and hope as part of long-term gambling recovery.

Yoga for Self-Regulation & Self Mastery

Somatic Movement & Body Awareness

This offering combines guided movement and body awareness practices with a focus on physical sensation and relaxation. The practice is designed to reduce stress, ease tension, and support greater awareness of physical and emotional states.

Participants learn to align breath with movement through yoga-based stretching, breathwork, and guided meditation. Each element is structured to support clients working through gambling challenges as they reconnect with their bodies and build a stronger sense of grounding.

This practice emphasizes impulse awareness, physical awareness, and restoring connection to the body after periods of stress or overwhelm.

Each session provides a steady foundation that supports recovery goals, encourages self-trust, and helps cultivate a calm and centered presence in daily life and during moments of challenge.

Why Elaris Believes in This Practice

At Elaris, we recognize that compulsive gambling is influenced by more than thoughts or behaviors—it's often connected to stress patterns and internal awareness. Long-term impulsivity, ongoing stress, and emotional strain can make it harder for people to stay in tune with their bodies and internal cues. Somatic-focused practices help rebuild that awareness.

By guiding clients in slowing down, tuning into physical sensations, and working with breath and movement, this approach strengthens the ability to pause, notice urges, and respond more intentionally. Over time, it supports emotional resilience, impulse awareness, and self-trust—important foundations for sustainable progress.

Materials & Integrated Supports

Each practice thoughtfully incorporates guided meditation, precise movement cueing, individualized modifications, custom music, sound healing, palo santo cleansing, and chakra attunements to support regulation and integration.

Added Support

Our clients are invited to connect with the teacher after each session for questions, clarification, and additional support, ensuring the experience feels accessible, grounded, and personalized.
