Why Use an Interventionist?

Although an intervention can be carried out without the help of a professional interventionist, someone with experience and expertise in interventions can bring a level of safety and structure to an otherwise chaotic affair. A professional interventionist can help you plan, strategize and rehearse your intervention and can help you find the best time and place to intervene on behalf of a person you care about. A professional interventionist will also work directly with you and will be able to answer any of your questions you may have about drug addiction or the intervention process.

At The Canyon, we have a staff of highly trained professionals who also know how to help perform interventions. Professionally trained and certified, these individuals can help you plan a successful intervention that will get the person you care about into addiction treatment where they can receive the help that they need.

Using an Interventionist Increases Your Chances of Success

Although the main goal of an intervention is to get a person into treatment at a rehab or detox center, there are other, short-term goals as well. For one, you must remain resolute to not give into begging, pleading or tearful promises of remorse and pledges to cease harmful behavior. When most addicts are confronted, they will rationalize and try to take emotional advantage of the people performing the intervention. Obviously, this does not help them at all. Beware of this common tactic and focus on getting the addict in to a treatment center instead.

An Interventionist Can Mediate a Highly Emotional Experience

An intervention is always an emotional experience when people who care about their friend or family member get together to confront them. Although the atmosphere of an intervention should be non-judgmental, there will always be plain, blunt and factual descriptions of how the addict's actions and drug or alcohol abuse has harmed the people around them. As each person describes what they have experienced as a result of the addict's actions, they are helping that person see what they have done, and giving them reason after reason to seek help for their problem.

An Interventionist is a Valuable Asset for Everyone Involved

In the emotionally charged state of an intervention, a professional interventionist can help in a variety of ways. By interviewing and getting to know the family and friends of the addict, they can find out valuable information about the addict's habits and addiction level. They can also help plan out the drug rehab intervention and advise people on how to act and how to communicate with the addict without sounding judgmental. They can also mediate in the actual intervention, providing a valuable anchor during the emotionally-charged discussion, and they can provide information on treatment resources that are available. In short, a professional interventionist is an indispensible tool that should be called upon whenever an intervention is needed. They can help in many ways, and can greatly increase the chances of success in an intervention.
