Our One-Year Intervention Process: A Path to Lasting Recovery

At Intervention Services and Coaching, we believe recovery is a journey, not a one-time event. Our comprehensive one-year intervention process provides families and individuals with the guidance, education, and ongoing support needed to achieve sustainable change. Over five carefully structured stages, we address every aspect of recovery, from the first call to long-term integration.

Stage 1: The Initial Call

Recovery starts with one conversation. This call is an opportunity to share your concerns, understand our process, and begin building a plan tailored to your loved one’s needs.

What Happens in This Stage:

• A free consultation to discuss your family’s situation and explore solutions.
• Explanation of our one-year model and next steps in the process.
• Initial resources and support for urgent concerns.

Common Questions:

1. What makes the one-year model different?
   Our approach ensures ongoing care and support, addressing challenges that arise over time instead of focusing solely on immediate action.

2. How do I know this is the right step?
   If your loved one’s behavior is harmful or worsening, now is the time to act. The earlier we intervene, the better the chances of success.

3. What if my loved one refuses to change?
   Resistance is common, and our model includes strategies to help families navigate these situations compassionately and effectively.

Testimonial:
“We were overwhelmed and unsure of where to start. That first call gave us hope and clarity. The compassion and understanding we received made all the difference.” – Sarah M., Family Member

Stage 2: Preparation for Intervention

Careful preparation is key to a successful intervention. Through a series of Zoom or phone sessions, we educate the family, craft impactful messages, and plan every detail.

What Happens in This Stage:

• Educating the family about addiction, enabling, and recovery dynamics.
• Writing personalized narrative letters to communicate concerns effectively.
• Coordinating logistics, including treatment options and follow-up care.

Common Questions:

1. What should I include in my letter?
   Letters should express love and concern while providing specific examples of harmful behavior. We guide you in crafting messages that inspire action.

2. How do we prepare emotionally for the intervention?
   We help you set realistic expectations, focus on the goal, and unite as a family.

3. What if our family has disagreements about the plan?
   Disagreements are natural. We mediate and help the family align on a cohesive approach.

“The preparation sessions were invaluable. We learned how to communicate without blame and set boundaries we never thought possible.” – Michael K., Parent

Stage 3: The Intervention

The in-person intervention is the heart of the process, where the family and loved one come together to inspire a commitment to recovery. Our professional interventionist facilitates the meeting to ensure compassion, focus, and safety.

What Happens in This Stage:

• Family members present their letters and express their concerns.
• The interventionist guides the conversation and transitions the individual to treatment if accepted.
• Support is provided for transportation or alternative plans if treatment is initially refused.

Common Questions:

1. What if my loved one doesn’t agree to treatment?
   If they refuse, we move into the boundaries stage, helping the family maintain a supportive but firm stance.

2. How long does the intervention take?
   It typically lasts a few hours but can extend over multiple days, depending on the situation.

3. What role do family members play during the intervention?
   Family members share their prepared letters and offer unconditional support, guided by the interventionist.

“I was skeptical about whether this would work, but seeing my brother agree to treatment was a miracle. The interventionist’s professionalism and guidance made all the difference.” – Amanda L., Sister

Stage 4: Aftercare and Recovery Transition

Recovery doesn’t end with treatment—it requires ongoing care and planning. In this stage, we work with the family and your loved one to ensure a smooth transition back to daily life.

What Happens in This Stage:

• Developing an individualized aftercare plan tailored to your loved one’s needs.
• Weekly private family support group sessions to share experiences, guidance, and encouragement.
• Ongoing family coaching to maintain supportive roles without enabling harmful behaviors.

Common Questions:

1. What is an aftercare plan?
   It’s a roadmap for continued recovery, including therapy, support groups, medication management, and other resources.

2. What if there’s a relapse?
   Relapses are a normal part of recovery for some. We guide families in addressing setbacks constructively to get back on track.

3. How can we support our loved one without enabling?
   We teach you how to establish healthy boundaries while remaining compassionate and supportive.

“The aftercare plan gave us a clear path forward. The weekly support group was a lifeline, giving us a space to learn and grow together.” – John D., Father

Stage 5: Recovery Integration

The final stage focuses on long-term sustainability. Families and individuals transition to independence in recovery while maintaining access to support as needed.

What Happens in This Stage:

• Continued coaching for the family to break cycles of enabling and codependency.
• Independent recovery coaching sessions for your loved one to ensure accountability and guidance.
• Availability of our team for ongoing support during challenging moments.

Common Questions:

1. How do we know when the process is complete?
   Success is marked by your loved one’s confidence in their recovery and the family’s ability to maintain healthy relationships.

2. How do we sustain progress after the year ends?
   We connect you with long-term resources, support groups, and strategies to maintain recovery.

3. What if we need help after the year?
   While most families transition to independence, we remain available for additional support if needed.

“We’re no longer living in crisis. The independent coaching sessions helped my son stay focused, and the family support group gave us tools to rebuild our relationships.” – Susan L., Mother
