Rick Benson is the founder of Algamus Treatment Center in Prescott, AZ. It's one of only a few gambling specific residential treatment programs in the US. Rick shares with us his personal journey of addiction, his recovery and how Algamus came about. He also talks about why for some stepping away from our life can be just the reset we need for a stronger more solid recovery. 

Disclaimer: I am in no way affiliated with Algamus. This is not a paid advertisement. I have not been through the program myself. I just want to provide different options available for treatment.

Ps. This was my very first interview. I was really nervous in the beginning so hang in there it gets better. And also please forgive how many times I said the word reset.
