“These are the diseases of secrecy and shame. For licensed and high-visibility professionals, the outward signs of their addictions can stay hidden for years, held in place by the same strengths that made them successful everywhere else. The internal pain arrives long before anyone else can see it.”
Michael Lazar
LCSW, CSAT-S, ICGC-I
An experienced clinician with specialty credentialing in gambling disorder and compulsive sexual behavior. Michael has held clinical leadership roles at several of the country’s leading residential treatment programs for behavioral addiction, working with physicians, attorneys, and executives.
The practice keeps a small caseload, so sessions can be scheduled around your calendar, with flexibility when work or travel changes the week. With the client’s authorization, care is coordinated directly with the physicians, psychiatrists, and advisors already involved.
More about MichaelTreatment typically begins with an initial diagnostic evaluation, and builds from there.
Sportsbooks, casino apps, trading platforms, and crypto exchanges are open at every hour on the same device used for work. Treatment addresses gambling in its current forms, including trading that has become compulsive.
About problem gamblingProblematic pornography use, compulsive messaging and app use, paid sexual services, or affairs that continue despite every intention to stop. What matters is whether the behavior has become a problem for you: escalation, secrecy, and a growing loss of control.
About sex, love, and pornography useGaming and screen use that has started to cost sleep, work, or relationships. It rarely appears alone, and often sits alongside problem gambling or compulsive sexual behavior.
About compulsive gamingThe introductory consultation is 15 minutes, at no cost, and carries no obligation. The conversation covers what is going on, whether the practice is the right fit, and what a path forward might look like.

Referrals are welcome from physician health programs, lawyer assistance programs, HIMS aviation medical examiners, and residential treatment programs arranging outpatient follow-up after discharge. They are also welcome from concierge medical practices, treatment placement specialists, executive coaches, attorneys, wealth managers, and other clinicians. I am glad to discuss a potential case directly before any referral is made, including whether a different level of care would be the better fit.
