Collectors MD is proud to welcome Kevin Kastrava Jr., MA, LPC, LCADC, ICGC-I to their growing Referral Network.

Kevin is a Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed/Certified Alcohol & Drug Counselor, and International Certified Gambling Counselor (ICGC-I) who brings a rare blend of clinical expertise and lived experience to the work. A recovering addict himself, Kevin understands the shame, secrecy, and “one more” mindset from the inside—then meets it with evidence-based care, accountability, and hope.

What Kevin Brings:

  • Gambling-Specialized Care: relapse prevention, urges/trigger planning, and recovery stabilization for casino, sports betting, online gambling, and gambling-like behaviors.

  • Evidence-Based Modalities: Motivational Interviewing, CBT, DBT-informed skills, and trauma-informed work.

  • Whole-Life Repair: rebuilding financial health, repairing relationship trust, restoring self-worth and identity beyond the gamble, and reconnecting to purpose and community.

In Kevin’s words:

“I’ve walked through the darkness of addiction and know how isolating it feels. The truth is—you can break free. We’ll do it one honest step at a time.”

Earlier this year, Kevin was our first guest on The Collector’s Compass, where we unpacked the psychology of gambling, how it overlaps with hobby behaviors, and practical ways to recognize warning signs before compulsion takes control.

Availability & Access:

  • Licensed Counseling: New Jersey (primary practice).

  • Referral Network Support: Intro 1:1 conversations for Collectors MD members nationwide, with warm hand-offs to appropriate care.

  • How To Connect: Visit our Get Help page on Collectors MD to request a confidential introduction to Kevin.

Collect With Intention. Heal With Support.
