Family Interventions
Living with a loved one who is abusing alcohol, drugs, food or displaying concerning behaviors such as gambling, sex and shopping can be frustrating and painful. While we know them to be good people, their actions hurt and cause shame in the people who love them. In most cases, the addict is unaware or unwilling to admit how much control the substance or behavior has over them. In these cases, the individual become defensive when faced with the truth. it is a very difficult situation for friends and family who are forced to sit by and watch as the addict slowly destroys themselves and the lives of the people around them. That is why an intervention not only includes the family but focuses on and treats them as a system.
Addiction Is A Disease
The American Medical Association (AMA) classified addiction as a disease in 1987. Treatment for the addiction must begin as soon as it is diagnosed, just as with any disease or illness, this is much easier said than done due to one of the most common symptoms of addiction being denial. This denial is what causes individuals to continue to delve deeper into an unmanageable addiction. Believing they can control their substance of use, even when it becomes clear that it is destroying their lives.
The unfortunate truth is that without the help they cannot and will not stop until the substance or behavior completely destroys their lives and/or kills them. This is preventable by reaching a “rock bottom” which is a catalyst for change. Unfortunately many experience their rock bottom too late. There is hope, however.

It accomplishes this goal by manufacturing a rock bottom in their lives in a safe and compassionate way.
