Successful Intervention Strategies - Brownsville, TX.

There are several drug and alcohol intervention methods and strategies that families in Brownsville may choose to employ. The most effective among these consist of the Johnson Intervention Model, the Family Invitational Model, and the Systemic Intervention Model.

a) The Johnson Model

This is the model that most people visualize when they think about an intervention. This approach involves confronting the addict when they are not expecting it, and then telling them how their actions and behavior have been affecting both themselves as well as each loved one in the intervention.

The team will then insist that the addict get treatment from a facility already set up by the family - going so far as to reiterate that they will offer their support throughout the endeavor. If the addict is not willing to attend the rehab program, the loved ones will set ultimatums, usually referred to as guidelines, outlining the consequences the individual will face if they refuse treatment.

This actual threat of consequences is what many people say makes the Johnson Model the most effective of all drug and alcohol intervention models. However, some people may feel that this method involves too much confrontation, and may prefer to go with another strategy.

b) The Family Invitational Model

This is another approach you may choose to look in to. The main idea is that it does not make use of the surprise confrontation like the previously discussed model. Instead, the addict will know what is going to happen when they are asked to attend the pre-arranged meeting.

The addict will also be allowed the freedom to decide whether or not they will attend the intervention gathering, as well as react to the issues and the proposed solutions raised in the discussion.

c) The Systemic Intervention Model

In this model, the family will meet up with a professional therapist - with the addict present. The therapist will help steer the discussions towards healing and coming up with appropriate solutions to the problem - which may or may not involve the addict checking into an addiction rehabilitation center.
