A Drug Intervention is a process during which a professional interventionist works with a family and friends to gently confront an addicted individual with their drug use and behaviors, in an attempt, to make it clear they will no longer enable the addiction and help them accept treatment. The best interventions are managed by a credentialed professional with a background in strong intervention practices. A trained individual understands the powerful psychological elements of denial by the addict and those effected by the addict’s addiction and for educational purposes, will assist in the disruption of the family system where needed to fuel the “whole family” healing process.

Angel Intervention & (I.O.P) Help Families that have a very difficult time deciding when the time is right to confront the issues within the family unit that may have stimulated an individual’s decision or reasoning to abuse drugs and/or alcohol. The definition of intervention is “to disrupt the family system”. This may seem harsh to some families but the truth lies in specific relational terms and issues within EVERY family. This is not to say that every single family is responsible for their loved one acquiring an addiction of any kind nor is it to imply that the family is the root cause of addiction but digging into family relationships can bring about clarity regarding addictive behaviors. No single person within any family is to “blame” for a person’s addiction, the individual made the choice to use drugs and/or alcohol, either knowingly or by accident, but if you look at family systems closely enough, there is always something, it could be big or small, but there is always something dysfunctional or slightly amiss in every family unit. Individuals who are addicted may or may not have put a finger on it, so to speak, or they may not have considered it at all, but it doesn’t mean it’s not there. It also doesn’t meant it’s not repairable. The entire family needs assistance in sorting out the difficulties. Experienced interventionists can facilitate the much needed process gently.
