An intervention at Integrative Recovery Therapies is nothing like what you might see on television. It's a calm, structured conversation planned carefully in advance with your family, not a surprise or an ambush. We meet with you first to understand your loved one's situation, the specific behaviors you've witnessed, and what you hope to accomplish. Together, we prepare what you'll say, who will be present, and how to stay grounded if emotions run high. This groundwork transforms what could feel like an attack into something your loved one can actually hear.
Our team doesn't disappear after that day. We help you prepare beforehand, walking through your concerns and the boundaries you need to hold. Then we stay involved with your family regardless of what happens. If your loved one agrees to treatment, we coordinate next steps. If they say no, we help you process that outcome and decide whether to regroup and try again. We recognize that moving someone toward help is often a process, not a single moment, and we're here to support your family through it all.
Every intervention we plan is built around these five commitments, regardless of the family or the situation.
We assess for safety risks before anything else, and we plan around them.
We keep the focus on clear communication instead of blame or shame.
We help families use specific, concrete language instead of vague accusations.
We help families hold loving boundaries, not ultimatums delivered in anger.
We prepare real, workable next steps rather than an all-or-nothing outcome.
We speak plainly and kindly, without judgment as the starting point for your family.
Our team plans interventions with real clinical training, not a generic template.
When treatment is accepted, we help coordinate the next step so nothing falls through.
We stay involved before, during, and after the intervention, whatever the outcome.
We understand the realities families in the Alexandria area are navigating.
We meet your family in our Metairie office or through secure telehealth, whichever fits.
Take the free assessment, or talk it through with a real person first.
When you call, we start by listening. Our first conversation is about understanding what you're facing and what matters most to your family, with no pressure to decide anything that day. We'll take time to learn your specific situation before discussing next steps. Every plan we develop grows from who you actually are and what you genuinely need, built carefully around the real people involved.
We start with a private conversation to understand the situation and screen for any safety concerns.
We help your family prepare what to say, what boundaries to hold, and what realistic next steps look like.
A calm, structured, guided conversation, not a surprise or an ambush, with treatment options ready if accepted.
We stay involved afterward, whatever the outcome, and help coordinate next steps with the family.

No, interventions do not have to be confrontational. Integrative Recovery Therapies plans each one to be calm, structured, and respectful, so it feels like a caring conversation rather than a confrontation or an ambush.
If your loved one refuses help, your family already has a plan for realistic boundaries and next steps, because that possibility is part of the preparation from the start. A refusal does not mean the process failed; it means the conversation continues on your family's terms.
Yes, Integrative Recovery Therapies plans interventions for co-occurring addiction and mental health concerns, not just substance use alone. Our team is trained to account for both when preparing your family and the conversation.
Yes, we regularly support families navigating an intervention alongside legal or court involvement. When it fits the situation, we can also coordinate with our Re-Entry Counseling team.
