Ever grappled with the heartache of watching a loved one struggle with addiction? We have, and this is why we're bringing our personal and professional take on intervention training live to your ears. Together, Matt Brown and Sam Davis, we're peeling back the layers on intervention techniques and real stories from the front lines of addiction recovery. We've had families reach out to us in desperation, and through our Intervention On Call platform, we've witnessed the powerful transformations that occur when guidance meets readiness for change. Our upcoming episode doesn't just discuss intervention training in Portland, Oregon; it's a deep dive into the emotional and practical tools that help families navigate these turbulent waters.
We're also tackling the complex dynamics that addiction weaves into the fabric of a family and the profound impact of setting boundaries. It's a common misconception to believe that the addicted individual is the only one who needs to change. However, we've seen time and again that the ripple effect of setting boundaries can redefine relationships and foster a sense of control amidst chaos. Tune in for candid conversations and insights, from the parallels drawn between a military veteran's experiences with surrender to the unexpected shifts in family roles when recovery begins. Our stories are a testament to the fact that the journey to recovery is not a solo mission but a collective effort, where everyone's growth is paramount.

Matt Brown and Sam Davis discuss some of the primary mistakes families make when choosing a treatment experience for their addicted/alcoholic loved one:

  • What are the reasons for gender specific treatment?
  • Dual-diagnosis treatment, do they provide it or is it just a buzzword?
  • Why 30 days is often not long enough?
  • What are the right questions to be asking the admissions person?
  • Why is the family program at the treatment center so important?
  • and much more
