Our S.A.F.E.® Intervention and Family Recovery Coaching Program helps families in California and Nationwide with loved ones who need Addiction and Mental Health Intervention Services

The team of Interventionists, Intervention Coordinators, and Family Recovery Coaches at Family First Intervention provides Services and Support for addiction, mental health, and dual diagnosis concerns in California and anywhere else in the United States your family needs us.

Family First Intervention’s S.A.F.E.® Intervention & Family Recovery Coaching program stands for Self-Awareness Family Education. Our curriculum helps families to become better equipped to support themselves and their loved ones during and after the intervention. Families in California have more resources for treatment centers and intervention professionals than just about any other state. These intervention service resources often lack an integrated team of professionals to offer support once the formal face-to-face intervention is complete. For those few intervention companies with a whole staff and multiple departments that offer family support after the intervention in California, the cost can be double that of other interventions in California, or the family is charged a separate fee for ongoing case management and support services.

Most interventionists in California are a one or two-person team. They can do an amazing job of inspiring a substance user or a loved one with mental health concerns to seek help. After the family’s loved one seeks help, most interventionists cannot provide a complete family curriculum to guide the family through their recovery process. Addiction and mental health interventions are the least stressful point during the intervention. It is after the intervention that families need the most help and support. In addition to supporting the family, your intervention team in California needs to be able to have weekly meetings with the treatment center your loved one is in. In doing so, Family First Intervention, the family, the treatment center, and your loved one with addiction or mental health concerns have the best possible support to succeed. Meeting with the treatment center staff and the family separately allows us to address discrepancies between what the loved one is telling the family and what they are saying to the team at the center.

California Mental Health, Addiction, and Dual Diagnosis Intervention support for families of loved ones who have not yet asked for help or reached their bottom

Families often wait for their loved ones to ask for help or hit their bottom. For some, this never happens or never comes. Families at their bottom can initiate the intervention process and make the necessary changes to help their loved ones see the need for help and feel the consequences of their actions. Whether this happens with an intervention or on its own, the family, the substance user, or the mental health patient is not out of the woods simply because they have entered a treatment program locally in California or anywhere else near where they reside.

Going to treatment for addiction and mental health is far easier than staying in treatment until completion. It is even more difficult for substance use and mental health disorder patients to follow through with discharge plans after they complete a recovery program. The family’s loved one may not complete treatment or follow discharge plans, and the family isn’t sure what they should do differently should this occur. If the family does not change while their loved one is in treatment, this can significantly lower the opportunity for a successful discharge and long-term outcome.

What to Consider When Choosing a Professional Addiction & Mental Health Interventionist

Whether your family or your loved one is in California or anywhere else in the Country, our S.A.F.E.® Intervention & Family Recovery Coaching program is available to you after the in-person formal intervention. Our approach provides family members and friends who choose to join our program the opportunity for growth. Without a team of interventionists and counselors who can collaborate with the family and the treatment center, your loved one is at risk of repeating the same behaviors upon discharge or leaving against medical advice. Families who become educated and in their recovery program are more likely to help themselves and their loved ones.
