You are not alone once you ask for help.  Asking for help is a courageous act.

Feeling alone and fearful of the outcomes, when there is active addiction in the family, is more common than you might think.

Once you make the call to us you will find that you are not alone, that you have a team of experienced and highly-qualified professionals to work with you to find help for your loved one.

“Our family can’t thank you enough for saving our son’s life, thank you for all the loving care you devoted to him and us.” – Jeanne and Family, Vancouver Island

We get your loved one the help they need.

  • Personalized Assistance

    We do not do the same type of intervention each time. We design an approach that is personalized for your family – an approach that will work best given the situation and that you agree with.

  • Unique Approach

    Most people think of interventions that are designed to surprise the chemically dependent person. We have performed hundreds of this type of intervention and still do when the situation calls for it. We also have a totally unique method of doing interventions. A method where the family does not have to lie, deceive, or ambush their loved one. We are the only team in Canada who employ this unique approach.

  • We care

    We care about you and stay connected with you, your family and the person struggling with addiction for a minimum of six months so that we can guide you and your loved one through recovery. We provide follow up and long term care, we stay involved.

    “James and Janice: You really care and you also know what we needed. Thank you for getting my family the recovery they needed. It saved our lives” – Bonnie, Vancouver BC

  • Reputation

    We have impeccable credentials, backgrounds, and are well known and respected in our communities. We have been involved in the recovery community for over 80 combined years. We will provide references from families we have helped. We are well known, respected, and accountable.

    “Successful Interventions sets the standard in helping people. They are leaders in the field – I knew that I could count on them.” – Steve P, Edmonton Alberta

  • Our Guarantee

    You receive a guarantee, in writing, of our commitment to you. We will work with you until your loved one gets the help they need, no matter how much work is involved.

Addiction is more frequent than you might think.

People often tend to think it won’t happen to them or their families, but the reality is that addiction is a common occurrence given the struggles of today’s society.

Individuals facing addiction frequently try to hide their problem, make light of the situation, or use denial to deal with the struggles they encounter – but for most, the problem just doesn’t go away.

Families often follow these same coping mechanisms when faced with seeing the effects of addiction on their loved ones. Without professional help, the problem usually becomes worse over time, never better.

Meet Our Team

Being professionals specializing in interventions, our work with many individuals and families over the years has clearly shown that working with the family can be much more powerful and transformational than simply working with the individual. We accomplish more in one weekend of family work, then what might take months, or even years, in individual therapy.

Please take a minute to watch the video, “Our Approach” to get to know us and how we work with families.

Pretty much everyone in the community knows James, Jade Jim and Janice and their reputation for caring and getting help for families. Our situation looked hopeless, yet they did everything anybody could ever do. They lived up to their guarantee of working with us until our brother got help. Then they supported him going through treatment and getting well afterward. We are so blessed he is happy and alive today, and we owe it all to Successful Interventions as they wouldn’t give up. – David, British Columbia

James Dunn on Intervention Canada

On Intervention Canada, James provides his professional expertise to assist John and his family.

John had it all. Four children, a long career working for a ferry company in British Columbia, and a successful import/export business. But five years ago, exhausted from the stress of a failing marriage and juggling two careers, he smoked crack cocaine for the first time and watched his world begin to fall apart.

Also addicted to heroin, John lived mostly on the street, while his family lived in fear of the phone call that would deliver their worst nightmare.

Devastated by the loss of the man that was once the lifeblood of their family, John’s mother, sister and grown sons enlist James to help pull John out of the abyss of his addictions.

With offices in Nanaimo, Vancouver and Victoria, we will travel anywhere in North America or internationally to facilitate an intervention.
