CALIFORNIA PROBLEM GAMBLING TREATMENT SERVICES PROGRAM

The Office of Problem Gambling (OPG), in partnership with the UCLA Gambling Studies Program (UGSP), is currently recruiting licensed therapists to participate in the California Problem Gambling Treatment Service Program (CPGTSP).


Therapists must complete state funded training focusing on the treatment of problem and pathological gamblers.  Note: Training will consist of one 7.5 hour online training course and three on-site 7.5 hour training days, providing the opportunity to obtain up to 30 Continuing Education Units (CE units).

Therapists who meet eligibility criteria may apply to the UGSP for admission to the training; however, due to limited space, training admissions will be on a first come, first served basis.

After completion of training, a therapist who meets criteria to become an authorized provider in the CPGTSP will be eligible to receive fee-for-service reimbursement from the State of California.  For further information, please review the "Training Requirement Information" link below. 

To register for the training, please complete the CPGTSP Provider / Supervisor Enrollment Application and CPGTSP Registration Form.  Fax your completed application to 310-825-0301 or mail to 760 Westwood Plaza, Suite 38-262, Mailcode 175919,  Los Angeles, CA 90095.
