Lesbian & Gay Drug Interventions

There is often a fine line between recreational drug use and uncontrollable substance abuse; interventionists help the addict see when they have crossed this line. Many people falsely think that an intervention is where everyone criticizes the addict for his behavior. When managed well, the intervention process confronts the addict without being confrontational. The unmanageability and dire state of the addict’s life is shown to them in plain sight, without any outside contexts or settings to hide in. Often, the pent-up emotional burden and strained relations in the family and workplace make it unwise for those affected to plan and lead an intervention themselves. These types of do-it-yourself interventions can actually push the addict further into substance abuse.

Our trained drug interventionists have years of experience facilitating interventions with members of the gay and lesbian community. In these potentially hostile situations, a trained professional is needed to maintain an atmosphere of love, security and trust, which are all vital to the intervention’s success. Interventionists help the addict and those present realize they have all been affected by a disorder which is now out of the addict’s control. Trained intervention professionals are the best resource one has in turning the addict’s life around.

The process begins when you contact us and explain the problems you’re facing with the addict in your life. Our interventionists will take you through a step-by-step consultation and assessment, figuring out what the key issues and problems are. The drug interventionist will then work with the family members, friends and coworkers to prepare a customized intervention specifically tailored to the traits and personal problems of the addict. Most importantly, during the process the interventionist will act as intermediary between your concerns and frustrations and the addict’s needs and rights. Let our years of experience guide you on this path towards freedom from drug addiction and the pain it causes in everyone’s life.
