More on Intervention
The purpose of this podcast is to provide more detailed insight into the process of intervention which requires a total commitment and is much more complicated than we see on TV.
- The overriding goal of an intervention is to get the addict/alcoholic to accept help and go into treatment.
- You will use the immense power of the group to achieve your purpose.
- You will use the power of love which cannot be denied and cuts through resistance and overpowers defiance.
- Readiness is everything: teambuilding, education, inviting people who care for him into the circle.
- Have them share their love and concern by reading their prepared letters out loud.
- And this part is why you are all there: offer the option of either treatment today or lack of future support for their current lifestyle.
