Over
20 years as a full-time family interventionist have
taught me that the most effective, lasting interventions
do not just focus on “getting the alcoholic/addict
to treatment “ (this actually, perhaps surprisingly,
is the easiest part of family intervention work). This
“quick fix” may bring brief relief for the
family, but most families want lasting recovery for
all concerned. Successful interventions recognize that
this is a generational family dis-ease, requiring change
in the system; i.e. a healthier family. To this end,
I coach families through a HEALTHY intervention process
that is open, honest, respectful (no secrets, no surprise
confrontations) and ultimately successful because all
who desire it are freed from the destructive impacts
of addiction and codependency. Family Intervention Institute
is based in both California and Colorado but offers
services throughout the United States.
