Watching a loved one struggle with addiction or mental health issues can often feel like an overwhelming and unending battle. If you’re in Oregon and feel like you’ve tried everything to help your loved one but haven’t seen any change, know that you’re not alone. Family Interventions is here to provide the compassionate support, expert guidance, and practical tools you need to navigate this difficult journey with your loved one. Whether the struggle is substance abuse, mental health challenges, or both, we specialize in helping families like yours through the toughest of times.
In Oregon, drug and alcohol use rates are higher than the national average, and the state faces significant challenges with addiction. With over 1.1 million people in the state using various drugs, and more than 6.25% of the population struggling with alcohol abuse, it’s clear that many families are being impacted by substance use. Alcohol remains the leading substance in treatment admissions, and minors are not immune to these challenges—over 12% of teens in Oregon report drinking alcohol at least once a month. Prescription opioids and marijuana are also commonly misused, especially among teens in the state. Sadly, despite efforts to improve, access to substance abuse treatment has been a concern in Oregon, with nearly 10% of those struggling with addiction still not receiving treatment.
At Family Interventions, we understand how isolating and challenging it can be to face addiction or mental health struggles with a loved one. Our team of trained intervention professionals is experienced in handling a wide range of situations. We’ll work with your family to create a personalized intervention plan tailored to your loved one’s unique needs—whether it’s related to substance abuse, mental health disorders, or both. Throughout the process, we provide continuous support, ensuring that both your loved one and your family are receiving the care you need. Our mission is simple: to help your loved one get the treatment they need and provide support for your family every step of the way.

If you’re unsure of where to begin or how to help your loved one, Family Interventions is here to walk with you every step of the way. We understand how much you care for your family member and how hard it can be to see them struggling. You want to help, but it can feel like nothing has worked so far. That’s why we’re here—to offer compassionate, expert-driven support so you can move forward as a family. Here’s how we make the intervention process work for you:
The first step is to have an honest conversation with you about what’s going on. We want to hear from you—your concerns, the challenges you’ve faced, and what you’re hoping for your loved one. We know how difficult it can be to see the situation clearly, especially when it feels like you’ve tried everything. That’s why we take the time to understand the bigger picture so we can create a personalized intervention plan that’s designed around your loved one’s specific needs. This way, your family has a clear path forward, and we’re ready to help you take the first step.
Once we have a solid understanding of the situation, we’ll help you understand what your loved one is experiencing. Substance use and mental health challenges can be incredibly complex, and many families unknowingly enable the problem. We’ll provide you with the education you need to understand addiction, mental health struggles, and how family dynamics can play a role in the situation. With this knowledge, you’ll feel empowered and confident moving forward in the intervention process. You’ll have the tools and understanding to approach the situation with clarity and compassion.
When it’s time for the intervention, we’ll be there with you to make sure everything goes as smoothly as possible. Our goal is to create a calm, supportive space where your loved one can truly hear the impact their actions have had on those they love. We know that emotions can run high, but our experienced team will guide the process and help everyone stay focused on the goal: getting your loved one the help they need. During the intervention, your family members will have a chance to express their feelings in a loving and respectful way, while we handle any resistance or difficult emotions that may come up. Ultimately, we’re focused on encouraging your loved one to take that important first step toward treatment and recovery.
Recovery is about more than just helping your loved one—it’s about helping your entire family. When someone in the family is struggling with addiction or mental health challenges, it affects everyone. It’s common for this to lead to unhealthy behaviors like enabling or codependency, which can prevent your loved one from taking responsibility for their actions and seeking the help they truly need.
At Family Interventions, we understand that true recovery starts with the whole family. We don’t just focus on getting your loved one into treatment; we focus on healing the entire family dynamic. We’ll work with you to identify and break negative patterns, such as enabling behaviors or codependency, and teach you how to support your loved one in healthier, more effective ways. Our goal is to restore balance, peace, and understanding within your family, ensuring that recovery is possible for everyone—not just your loved one.
You’re not alone in this journey. Family Interventions is here to guide you and provide the support you need. Together, we can help your loved one get the care they deserve and build a stronger, healthier family dynamic for all.
It’s natural to want to wait for your loved one to ask for help, or maybe you’re holding on to the hope that they’ll hit rock bottom and realize they need to make a change. But the truth is, waiting often makes things worse. Addiction and mental health challenges don’t resolve themselves—they only tend to get more entrenched with time. The longer you wait, the harder it becomes for your loved one to recognize the need for change and seek help.
In Oregon, with rising rates of substance abuse, including alcohol and opioid misuse, taking action sooner is crucial. The earlier you intervene, the better the chances are for your loved one to accept help and begin the journey toward recovery. Family Interventions encourages you to take action today—before things spiral any further. You have the power to make a difference and help your loved one get the support they need now, not later.
Recovery is a journey that doesn’t end when your loved one completes treatment. It continues long after that, through the months and years ahead. At Family Interventions, we don’t just walk away after the intervention—we’re here to support you and your family throughout the entire recovery process. Our commitment to your family’s healing remains strong as we help you navigate the challenges of recovery together.
We offer ongoing support as your loved one progresses through their recovery journey, helping you set healthy boundaries, practice self-care, and provide emotional support when necessary. With Family Interventions, you don’t have to face the ups and downs of recovery alone. We’ll be there to help you stay strong, celebrate the victories, and face any obstacles with confidence. Together, we’ll ensure that your family moves forward toward a healthier future.
There are various types of free drug rehabilitation centers available for people seeking help. These include state-funded centers, which are paid for by the government for people who cannot afford treatment, non-profit organizations that provide free assistance for drug and alcohol addiction, and faith-based groups that offer free treatment as part of their services and may also assist with financial aid. One example of the latter is The Salvation Army Adult Rehab Centers.

Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) meetings can be a great source of support for those trying to quit drinking. The groups provide a place for individuals working on their recovery to connect with others who are going through similar situations. Attending the right AA meeting is crucial for a successful experience. This database offers comprehensive information and social networking opportunities to help you find the right group and fully engage with its teachings. By connecting with fellow AA members, you give yourself the best possible chance of success in your recovery journey.
If you or a loved one is struggling with drug addiction, you may have heard of Narcotics Anonymous (NA) meetings. You may be wondering if these 12-step programs are effective and if they could work for you. NA and other 12-step programs provide regular meetings for individuals who want to stop using substances. During these meetings, which often occur weekly, NA members share their experiences with drug addiction and offer each other support, encouragement, and guidance. Group therapy and 12-step programs, including NA meetings, have been successful in helping people achieve and maintain sobriety for many years. These groups are available every day, everywhere. Discover support groups in your local community today and receive the assistance you need to maintain a happy, healthy, and sober life.
