20: How to Become a Nationally Certified Gambling Addictions Counselor

Episode 20: In this podcast, the last of four on pathological gambling, I speak with Jody Bechtold, LCSW about the process for becoming a nationally certified gambling addictions counselor. Jody compares the national certification process with the process to be designated as "competent" to treat pathological gambling in the state of Pennsylvania. If you are interested in becoming nationally certified, you might want to listen to the podcast a couple of times, as there are a number of steps in the process. Resources on the certification process, including names, email addresses and web sites can be found at socialworkpodcast.com.
