1st Step Interventions knows that addiction does not only affect the addict. Alcohol and drug abusers do not exist in a world by themselves. Most substance abusers live within some relationship to their families, friends, or coworkers. Intervention is about professionally intervening with love, feelings and facts to motivate addicted persons to accept the help being offered them. Because unhealthy dynamics surround the addicted person, professional intervention is needed to break down denial and to keep focus with the addicted person and the family.

It is only in the most extreme of circumstances that the alcoholic or addict will voluntarily seek treatment. Rather, practicing addicts who have been forced to face their addiction in a honest and forceful enough manner, so as to break through their denial, will stoutly maintain that there is no problem. Professional intervention provides the necessary impetus to force the addict to confront their addiction.

1st Step Interventions specializes in intervention. 1st Step Interventions utilizes a proven method of working first with the family, friends and coworkers of the addict. When this group has come to one voice it is ready to take the meeting to the substance abuser. The message in this meeting is delivered with love, feelings and facts. When confronted this way the identified addict is not fearful of the message and hears what the group is saying. 95% of addicts make their way into Treatment and recovery after an Intervention conducted in this manner.
