The Family Intervention Process

When a family first engages Newman Interventions, we will want to gather information, answer questions, and explain the intervention process. There is a lot of planning that does go into a family intervention.  The whole process does happen quickly, but there is extensive communication between the family and the interventionist.  It is our job to prepare the family for everything that is going to happen.  The first day we arrive in Minnesota for the intervention is spent with the family.  This day is about educating the family and going over the entire process.  Every detail is ironed out right down to who is packing their bag and having it ready to go.  When the intervention happens, there are a number of things that could take place that an interventionist prepares the family for.

Some of the excuses as to why they cannot go to treatment include they cannot miss work, or their kids need them, or they can’t leave their dog.  The addict may ask for more time, saying they can handle it.  This is the time when they will play off the family’s emotions and manipulate the situation.  Most addicts will cry, scream, and blame everyone in the room for their problems. This is normal, and drug addiction causes you not to take responsibility for anything.  The worst-case scenario is they refuse, and the family must lay down the bottom line.  There is extensive coordination that goes on to prepare for these situations.  The only goal is to save their life and get them help.

Drug and Alcohol Rehab in Minnesota

Finding a drug rehab in Minnesota can be challenging. One of the first steps our certified interventionist does with the family is to locate and arrange substance use treatment in the state.
