What You Can Expect From Our Mental Health & Addiction Interventions

Start With A Free Confidential Consultation

At Addiction Interventions, everything begins with a private phone call. This first step is about listening—understanding what’s really stopping your loved one from getting help, and what’s preventing the family from taking action. Often, it’s fear, confusion, or the overwhelming weight of responsibility that leads families to feel stuck.
We work with you to uncover patterns of self-sacrifice—where your family’s needs have been sidelined for the sake of someone struggling with addiction or mental health issues. Our experience shows that real breakthroughs happen when families recognize how enabling behaviors can unintentionally keep their loved one trapped in addiction.
This is about shifting the dynamic. You don’t have to keep losing yourself to protect someone who isn’t getting better. There is a healthier, more balanced way forward for everyone involved—and we’re here to help you discover it.

Understanding How Mental Health & Addiction Can Impact Someone

Most families step into the intervention process thinking they’re helping—providing food, shelter, money, or emotional comfort. But what feels like support can often prevent the addicted person from facing the reality of their condition. Our role is to help families see how these actions, while well-intentioned, can keep someone from experiencing the consequences that often motivate change.
We teach families to recognize these patterns and to understand why they exist. Enabling behaviors aren’t just about the addict—they’re often rooted in the family’s own desire to be accepted, needed, or at peace. This leads to dynamics where everything revolves around keeping one person happy, while the rest of the family suffers in silence.
Through education, we help families stop the cycle of codependency and begin setting healthier boundaries that lead to long-term healing for everyone—not just the person struggling with addiction or mental health challenges.

Begin The Intervention Process

An intervention is more than a conversation—it’s a full reset for the entire family system. We don’t just focus on getting your loved one into treatment. We walk with you through the emotional, behavioral, and psychological shifts needed to sustain recovery and rebuild healthier relationships.
Too often, intervention services end after the addict agrees to treatment. Not with us. Addiction Interventions is committed to guiding your family through what comes next—with structure, insight, and ongoing support.
Many families come to us after multiple failed treatment attempts. We help you understand why those efforts didn’t stick, and what needs to change this time. It’s not about trying harder—it’s about trying differently. Our process helps everyone involved reclaim their lives, establish healthy roles, and move toward a life filled with purpose, clarity, and peace.

Our Techniques

Different Intervention Methodologies

At Addiction Interventions, we proudly provide professional intervention services in every corner of the United States. Whether your loved one is in a major city, a small town, or a rural community, our nationwide network of experienced interventionists is ready to help guide your family through the process of recovery—no matter where you are located.

ARISE® Intervention

The ARISE® Intervention uniquely prioritizes an invitational, non-confrontational approach, involving the person of concern and their support network from the outset. This collaborative, gradually escalating, and family-centered method emphasizes compassion over coercion, leading to higher rates of treatment engagement and long-term recovery.

The Johnson Model

The Johnson Model of intervention is unique for its structured, often "surprise" confrontation where a prepared team of loved ones directly presents factual evidence of the addiction's impact. This method aims to break through denial by forcing the individual to face reality, with a pre-arranged treatment plan ready for immediate acceptance.

FAQs

Find answers to common questions you may have about our intervention process.

1. What are interventions for addiction?

Interventions are structured, carefully planned conversations in which family, friends, and sometimes professionals come together to confront a person about their substance use. The goal is to encourage them to recognize the problem and accept treatment. Interventions often include:

  • Preparation: Gathering loved ones and deciding on a unified message.

  • Professional guidance: Sometimes led by an interventionist or counselor.

  • Clear consequences and boundaries: Outlining what will happen if the person refuses help.

  • Offering solutions: Presenting immediate treatment options.

The 4 C’s are often used to describe the defining characteristics of addiction:

  1. Craving – An intense desire or urge to use the substance.

  2. Compulsion – A powerful drive to continue using despite wanting to stop.

  3. Control – Loss of control over how much or how often the substance is used.

  4. Consequences – Continued use despite harmful effects on health, relationships, work, or life.

Helping someone with addiction requires compassion, patience, and firm boundaries:

  • Educate yourself about addiction as a disease, not just a choice.

  • Communicate openly and calmly, avoiding judgment or blame.

  • Encourage professional treatment, whether inpatient, outpatient, or therapy.

  • Set healthy boundaries to protect your own well-being.

  • Offer ongoing support, such as attending support groups (e.g., Al-Anon, Nar-Anon).

Treatment often varies by the individual’s needs, but five common approaches include:

  1. Detoxification (Detox) – Medical support to safely manage withdrawal.

  2. Inpatient/Residential Rehab – Structured, 24/7 treatment in a facility.

  3. Outpatient Programs – Flexible treatment that allows people to live at home.

  4. Therapies & Counseling – Such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), group therapy, or family therapy.

  5. Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) – Use of FDA-approved medications like methadone, buprenorphine, or naltrexone to support recovery.
