Invervention Services

Intervention is the term used when family members, friends, employers or other support persons try to encourage an individual to go into counseling for their alcohol or drug use problems. An intervention can be the beginning of their long term recovery.

Successful interventions generally have several common characteristics:

• A professional interventionist helps to organize the process.
• The interventionist will meet with family and friends to prepare and discuss participation in the intervention.
• Non-negotiable limits and boundaries will be developed and set.
• They're a surprise in order to increase success of the intervention.
• A team is comprised of people that the addict respects.
• They're conducted by people prepared for "care-frontation.”
• They're compassionate.
  

Although an addict or alcoholic may not enter treatment, interventions always succeed. If they do not enter treatment immediately, most do soon after. The intervention breaks the silence. The abuser hears how their substance use harms those around them and to acknowledge there is a problem. The rest of the family is given the opportunity share how the substance use has affected their relationship with the addict or alcoholic.This is the first step toward healing.
