The kindest and most loving thing family and friends can do.

Intervention is the most loving, powerful and successful method yet for helping people accept help. A family intervention can be done with love and respect in a non-confrontational, non-judgmental manner. A family intervention is often the answer, the only answer. It can be done. It can be done now.

Anytime someone needs help but refuses to accept it, a family intervention is appropriate. A family intervention can be used for people engaged in any self-destructive behavior:

• alcohol abuse, alcohol addiciton

• drug abuse, drug addiction

• eating disorders, such as over eating, anorexia or bulimia

• gambling addiction, sex addiction

• computer addiction, internet addiction

• a senior needing assisted living

• a person struggling with chronic pain

A Word of Caution:

Family interventions are difficult and delicate matters and it is important that they be done properly.

No family intervention should be undertaken without advice and counsel of a professional experienced in the intervention process.

Furthermore, since people embarking on an intervention often feel ambivalent and apprehensive, it is important that they trust the interventionist. Should you ever feel uneasy with your interventionist, that you are being asked to do something you do not understand or agree with, you would be wise to stop the process and go elsewhere.

Bay Recovery Intervention Program

Here at Bay Recovery Centers we work closely with a number of certified, and well trained interventionists that specialize not only in addition interventions, but also understand the complexity of chronic pain and dual diagnosis interventions as well.

The relief of suffering is the underlying agenda of any intervention. Changing the self-destructive behavior at the root of suffering is always the focus regardless of the form an intervention may take.
