Intervention is an opportunity for the family to come together and manage addiction in a proactive way. A proper intervention unites the family, creates a plan, and invites the person of concern to be a part of the plan. Know that from the day of the intervention forward, things will change.

Intervention is not a single and dramatic event. It is a steady process and commitment to starting the path to recovery.
The goal of an intervention is to prepare and take action for a loved one the moment they accept treatment.
Intervention defines the problem, and outlines sequential steps to achieve recovery. Online interventions allow all family members to unite regardless of location.
Plans support both the family and the person of concern during and after treatment.

Recovery Coaching is an essential part of the recovery process.

Change begins the moment a family member reaches out for help. I support families through a structured program to form an actionable plan against addiction.

Employers can show support by working with us to create a monitored recovery plan that will help key employees return to work healthy and have third party supervision.
