Brief Summary: This randomized controlled trial examines the efficacy of two behavioral therapies Seeking Safety which addresses co-occurring problem gambling PG and posttraumatic stress disorder PTSD is being compared to Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for PG which addresses only PG Both models are delivered via telehealth
Detailed Description: Our key study question is whether an integrated focus on PG and PTSD Seeking Safety SS offers a useful new option for clinical care compared to a purely problem gambling approach Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for PG CBT-PG This question-the impact of integrated versus non-integrated treatment for co-occurring disorders-is one of the key issues in the field currently and has never been studied in relation to PG and PTSD

Our aims are

1 To conduct an RCT of SS versus CBT-PG in a sample of 84 people with current PG and PTSD full or subthreshold
2 To evaluate outcomes from baseline to end of treatment and 12 month followup on two primary variables money lost gambling and number of gambling sessions and several secondary variables

Our hypotheses are a SS will do no worse than CBT-PG on the primary PG outcomes as both treatments are designed to address addiction ie both will show improvement from baseline to end of treatment and maintenance of gains through the followup b SS will show superior results on trauma symptoms as SS is designed to address those whereas CBT-PG is not
