Our Approach to Interventions
With over 30 years of experience doing interventions, our approach to working with families is immersed in the “why” we do what we do. We know what it's like to be in the grip of addiction and to come out the other side. It is with grace that we have been given the gift of recovery and our passion is to share it. Entelechy Recovery Group is focused on individuals and families suffering from addiction, with the goal of helping people move into healing and realizing their full potential.
We are family-centered, collaborative, compassionate, and provide solutions that are tailored to each unique situation. We’re not a cookie-cutter operation that uses one methodology. Our years of experience and training gives us the ability to intuitively know how to handle difficult situations and provide treatment plans based on individual needs. We take the word “integrity” seriously, and great pride in being responsive and reliable. We’re the calm in the storm and our goal is to be a trusted partner for families.
Addiction affects the whole family and support system which is why we look at everyone involved including the family system, generational issues, relationships, and much more. We aim to break the chain of dysfunction so the healing can start now and impact generations to come.
When is it time for an Intervention?
The traditional belief to working with addicts was that you can’t help someone unless they want help. While we do believe in the gift of desperation, the above statement would imply we have absolutely no influence to help the suffering addict. Part of what we do in the intervention process is raise the person's bottom floor. We like to say “addiction is like an elevator going down, you can get off at any floor”. Not only for the individual, but for the family as well. In the spirit of the family systemic model, one could say ”you can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink”. The systemic interventionist would say, “yes that’s true but we can make him really thirsty”. This approach emphasizes the family system, changing is the opportunity for all to get into recovery.

COMPREHENSIVE INTERVENTION
Comprehensive interventions include all aspects of the intervention process. Our trained and certified professional interventionists will educate, lead and facilitate the intervention process allowing the family to feel supported the entire way. During the intervention, our experienced team will assist the family by performing a treatment assessment, providing options for types of treatment, transporting the person to the treatment center and offering continued family support upon admission into treatment.

COACHED INTERVENTION
A coached intervention is where our team supports a family that wants to do an intervention but without an interventionist present and at a cost savings. The coached intervention process would be appropriate for a family that is motivated and has some experience or understanding of family systems. Entelechy Recovery would provide the initial assessment and give treatment options for the person of concern, and the interventionist would prepare and coach the family through the intervention, but would not be physically present at the intervention.

INTERVENTION CONSULTING
Our intervention team can be hired by a family or individual on an hourly or limited basis to provide strategy, assessment, and guidance prior to an intervention or at any point where there’s a need for a professional to be involved.
