Pat Mazza - Founder

A Message From Our Founder, Pat Mazza.

My name is Pat Mazza. As someone who once struggled with gambling addiction, I founded The Gambling Clinic to be the lifeline I wished I had.

Following my own rock bottom brought on by gambling addiction, I resolved to not only reconstruct my own life but also to assist others on their recovery journey. To equip myself with the necessary expertise and qualifications, I enrolled in a master’s degree, paving the way for the establishment of The Gambling Clinic.

Drawing from a wealth of experience in the iGaming industry, with insider roles at BetMGM, PointsBet, and Stardust Casino, coupled with my own successful recovery, I have developed a unique and empathetic approach to helping individuals navigate their way to a gambling-free life.

Yes, our services are covered by insurance.

Your private insurance may cover up to 100% of the cost and we can bill directly!
