Professional Interventionists can provide you with several benefits when it comes to hosting your own intervention. The main benefit, and likely the most important, is that you will have professional guidance throughout the process. This ensures that the intervention was planned, and guided optimally. Your interventionist will give you honest and unbiased feedback about what you can do to help your loved one.
Your professional interventionist will start by discussing factors that are important when you are planning the meeting. This would include the location, other participants, and the progression of the meeting. They will also talk to you about unexpected turns that could occur in the meeting. Because they have helped with many interventions, they can help you prepare for the challenging moments.
Additionally, your interventionist will spend time with you to see how you have been coping with the concerns that you have been carrying. You may find that your interventionist has helpful suggestions that can improve your self-care and well-being. If you have been struggling with any codependent or enabling behaviors, they can help discuss changes you can make to your boundaries. New boundaries can be beneficial for you as well as your loved one who is struggling with substance abuse.
During your intervention, your interventionist will help guide, facilitate, and mediate the conversation. This can help diffuse tense moments and keep the conversation going in the right direction. Additionally, by having an Interventionist, you are able to act as a participant in the meeting and not worry about keeping it on track. This can be an act of kindness that you show yourself by letting someone else be the point person for your intervention.
A key component of an effective intervention is having an appropriate and clear treatment recommendation. When you work with a professional Interventionist, they will be able to discuss the treatment options available and make a referral to a local treatment provider. This can help make the process from the intervention to the beginning of treatment feel seamless. If your loved one is not receptive to the treatment recommendations, they can walk through other options that are available to your loved one.
