Gambling and Sex Addiction with Michael Lazar

In this new episode of Conversations on Sex, Addiction and Relationships, Tim Stein, Jeanne Vattuone, Wendy Conquest, and Dan Drake welcome Michael Lazar, an expert in sex addiction and gambling disorder, for an important conversation about the rapidly changing world of online gambling. As sports betting, prediction markets, day trading, cryptocurrency, and gambling apps become increasingly accessible through mobile devices, gambling no longer requires a trip to a casino. The hosts explore how this shift has made gambling more private, immediate, normalized, and difficult for families and loved ones to detect. They also discusses the importance of screening for gambling concerns in sex addiction treatment, seeking qualified professional support, and recognizing when gambling-related depression requires immediate help.
