The Gambling Brain: Featuring Dr. Natalie Spiteri

In this episode, Coach Kurinn Wright sits down with Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Chief Clinical Officer Dr. Natalie Spiteri to unpack how the brain functions in the development of gambling addiction. Dr. Spiteri breaks down the neurological patterns behind risk, reward, and habit formation, while highlighting the unique vulnerability of the developing brain. The conversation explores why youth and young adults are at greater risk, particularly when decision-making is influenced by an underdeveloped frontal lobe or repeated exposure to reward-driven systems that train the brain toward addictive behavior. Dr. Spiteri also emphasizes the critical role of emotional regulation, offering insight into how unmanaged emotions can drive gambling behavior and why building these skills is essential for both prevention and recovery. This episode brings clarity to the science behind gambling addiction and reinforces the importance of awareness, early intervention, and skill-building for long-term behavioral change.
