If alcohol is part of what's going on with your loved one, take our short, private assessment to get a clearer picture of where things stand and what kind of support could help.

An intervention at Integrative Recovery Therapies isn't a surprise or an ambush. It's a calm, structured conversation that we prepare for together with your family beforehand. We help you plan what to say, how to say it, and what boundaries matter most. The goal is to create space for your loved one to hear clearly that people who care about them are concerned, and that treatment is available and ready.
Our team works with your family in the days and weeks before the intervention to build confidence and clarity about what you're hoping will happen. We stay involved afterward too, regardless of the outcome. If your loved one agrees to treatment that day, we help with the transition. If they need time to think, or if the family needs to regroup and try again, we're here to help you through that as well. This is a process, and you don't walk it alone.
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.

When you reach out from Opelousas, we start by listening.

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.
