An intervention is the start of a new direction in someone's recovery and a new direction for that person’s family. For an intervention to be successful a long term plan of recovery needs to be put in place. Suntra interventions are based on a loving and family centered approach.
The problem of addiction may have gone on for years, a significant change-in-events may require immediate action (often financial or legal). Loved ones want “the old person back”. Adam discusses when is the right time to consider an intervention.
Engaging the loved one and the family, creating a long term plan, and building trust is the most effective way to have lasting recovery. A Suntra intervention is a positive experience, and not a shocking one.
The most important part of an intervention is creating a plan of recovery. Plans must be affordable and well thought out for them to be successful. In the midst of a crisis of addiction, its difficult to navigate all of the options of recovery, and many considerations need to be addressed in a short time period.
There is a wide gap between actively using and entering a treatment program. The individual that needs help may not see it, and may not be ready for change. An intervention helps someone to see the situation that they are in and prepare them to make a change.
