Addiction and Mental Health Disorder Intervention Services in New York

Our interventionists and family support specialists have helped countless families and their loved ones in New York with our in-person Interventions and online Family Recovery Coaching Services.

Family First Intervention is a nationwide intervention services company. We help families with loved ones who are alcoholics, have a drug addiction, and may be experiencing mental health disorder concerns. We provide families with these services and resources in New York and all across the country.

With New York State being the 4th most populous state and hosting New York City, the nation’s most populous city, we are frequently called upon to assist families and their loved ones in New York and the tri-state area.

When we first started providing our intervention services in New York, the most common addictions we faced were alcohol, heroin, club drugs such as GHB and Ecstasy, crack cocaine, powder cocaine, and marijuana. Today, the most common addictions we see are alcohol, fentanyl, methamphetamines, and marijuana, often laced with other substances. Although first responders in New York State and New York City are some of the most responsive in the nation, it often still is not quick enough to tend to the rise in overdoses that we see in New York State and City and the rest of the country.

Addiction and Mental Health Intervention Services in New York.

New York State and New York City have some of the most significant resources in the country, if not the world. Like almost every other state, professional interventionists with a family recovery curriculum are hard to come by. Most states, like New York, have their fair share of mental health hospitals, short-term treatment centers, addiction professionals, and independent or solo interventionists. What is lacking is access to long-term treatment with a dual diagnosis component that can address substance use and mental health simultaneously through an integrated treatment team. Our intervention services in New York understand this, and we have interventionists who address the family system along with your loved one with a drug addiction, alcohol problem, or mental health disorder. Being knowledgeable of the surrounding resources and resources in other parts of the country allows us to work with your family and your loved one to prepare an effective treatment plan.

Initial Consultation

Our process starts with a phone call to our office. When the family agrees, we move to a family consultation call. We begin the assessment phase after the family has approved the intervention.

Arranging the Treatment Plan and the Logistics for the Intervention

The next step is arranging the treatment plan and the logistics for the intervention. Upon arrival, our interventionist utilizes our S.A.F.E.® Intervention and Family Recovery Coaching manual as a guide.

Face-To-Face Intervention

The following day is the face-to-face intervention with your family, the interventionist, and your loved one. Regardless of the outcome, your family will move into our S.A.F.E.® program for guidance and support. The S.A.F.E.® curriculum consists of weekly family meetings with several support groups offered throughout the week. One-on-one support is available and reserved for families actively engaged in our meetings and support groups. Families are assigned homework assignments to work on goals and process the work they do for themselves outside of the S.A.F.E.® curriculum.

Outside Work for Families

The outside work can include Al-Anon, Families Anonymous, CoDA, A.C.O.A. meetings, marriage and family therapy, and individual counseling. We also encourage families to participate in hobbies and self-care activities. The S.A.F.E.® Addiction and Mental Health Intervention Services and Family Recovery Coaching program is designed to help families take their lives back, regardless of whether their loved one agrees to accept your gift of a second chance at life.
