Interventions

"I can't thank you, Jeffrey McIntyre, enough for your outstanding work in guiding us through this intervention."

Is your family suffering from a member's drug or alcohol abuse?

Are you losing business because of the alcohol or drug abuse of a manager, a partner, or an officer of the company?

Interventions can make a powerful difference in your family or business!

Interventions were developed by Dr. Vernon Johnson and adapted by family therapists over the last 25 years to create successful communication for a family or a business with an individual about his or her alcohol or drug addiction. Interventions can be arranged to meet the needs of the family or business. They can be developed in a weekend or over several weeks. The time to prepare and deliver an Intervention may vary from 8 to 16 hours.

An intervention is:

  • An organized, focused request by a family or business for one person to become clean and sober.

  • A powerful invitation to everyone in a family or business to become responsible for his/her actions and to learn how to communicate effectively.

  • An opportunity for families or people in a business to learn how to be in relationship without fear, shame, or secrecy.

Jeffrey has 30 years of experience creating safe and successful Interventions with families and businesses.
