Interventions
Getting a loved one with an alcohol or drug problem to recognize the need for treatment is one of the most challenging aspects of the entire process. Treatment isn’t a reality yet because they don’t believe there is a legitimate problem with their choices, their health or their lifestyle. But everyone else can see the impact of their self-destructive ways, and acting quickly to save them from more harm, or even death, triggers the need for an intervention.
You may have tried having a conversation and found it didn’t help. It may have been ineffective for many reasons: your timing, your choice of words, the nature of your relationship. But that doesn’t mean an intervention isn’t worthwhile. The benefits of a well-planned and executed intervention are tremendous.
At New England Interventions, our intervention specialists can discuss how to safely and effectively create and carry out a plan for intervention involving a family member, friend or colleague who is abusing alcohol or drugs. Careful coordination of an intervention, with attention to all pertinent details, can increase the chance of getting an individual to recognize and appropriately respond to a need for treatment. Ultimately, getting someone to accept the need for treatment is the only goal of an intervention.
We can provide insight into topics such as:
When is the right time for an intervention?
Who should be present in the room?
What types of locations are recommended?
How can having a trained professional present help?
There is no need to attempt an intervention alone. Allow the trained and experienced intervention specialists at New England Interventions to guide you step-by-step through the process. Call us today at 877-604-3575.
