Professional family interventionists are trained in successfully hosting family interventions in Tarzana. These interventions are intended to help get the addicted loved one to agree to receiving help by attending a professional rehabilitation facility along with helping the family members and caregivers of the addict through the negative consequences and tremendous hardships as a result of the addiction.
The purpose of the family interventionist is to plan, organize, supervise, and direct the intervention process so that the event is structured and controlled and has the best possibility for success.
Addiction interventions are more involved and complex than you might think. They are much more than merely a family conversation or meeting. Professional family interventionists have a number of functions and responsibilities throughout the entire process.
Some common duties of a professional family interventionist include:
Even with months or weeks or preparations, there are some things to avoid throughout the intervention. These may include, but are not limited to the following:
Avoid labels like junkie, addict, or alcoholic - or anything that the addict might take as offensive. Instead, speak in neutral terms that do not label the person by their substance abuse problem.
Rather than overcrowding the meeting, choose a select group of close family members and loved ones.
Try not to get upset during the drug and alcohol intervention. You can think of ways to manage these emotions to ensure that the event is not overtaken by harmful emotions.
If the addict is under the influence - or another member of the group - you should avoid doing the drug and alcohol intervention. Instead, wait for them to sober up before intervening.
