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.

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 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

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

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.
