Drug and Alcohol Addiction
The drug and alcohol interventionist prepares the family and develops a compassionate but determined plan to speak out loud, in truth, and to present and option for life. As with the lifestyle changes that occur in addiction, there comes a new way of thinking and reasoning. It is all about keeping the pain down and feeling better. The substance becomes his bodyguard against pain and discomfort.
Why not feel good? A new norm of living is quickly established with all the old loves, connections, attachments and principles compromised. The hardest thing for a loved one to understand and accept is, “If he really loved me, he would not do this.”
We are located in the Philadelphia area and serve surrounding Philadelphia, Bucks, Montgomery, Delaware and Chester counties. Our Philadelphia drug and alcohol Interventionist has helped many families with a loved one who has suffered with drug and alcohol addiction with our intervention service in Philadelphia PA. We go into the drug scene in Kensington trying to help the people affected by this disease. PHILADELPHIA INTERVENTIONIST CAN HELP YOU!
Family Interventions that saves lives
The Intervention is a process, directed to create change in lives. It represents a courageous step, that you recognize that there is pain and that you can no longer tolerate or accept the distress and fear of losing the one you love. The initiation of an intervention always begins with the formal Team process, directed to address the family’s need to heal, to allow them to find their voice, and to lead the addict to the recovery process.
Members of the Team may be a parent(s), partners, sibling, relative, a best friend, sorority sisters/fraternity brothers, a member of the clergy, a family doctor or the person’s pediatrician, an attorney, peer employee, supervisor, or any other person who is a stakeholder in offering help.
Many believe the goal of the Pennsylvania Intervention is to move the addict into treatment. This is all great, assuming the addict has reached the point to accept with true willingness, that he is moved by the love and support, and messages of hope from his loved ones.
The goals of the ADT Team and Intervention are not only to move the addict into accepting help, but to bring awareness of the process to light, to stop the enabling process, to set boundaries, and to provide guidance and support to the family and Team so they also begin the healing process.
Families think that if their loved one just lands that perfect job or meets that special someone, things will get better. Addicts and alcoholics manipulate their families’ emotions to make their addiction possible—even at the expense of others they love.
Our Pennsylvania Interventionist will help you understand your loved one’s behaviors and how those behaviors are holding you emotionally hostage while the alcohol or drug abuser becomes a professional victim in order to continue with the addiction and avoid hitting bottom or wanting help.
