The best intervention specialist, in fact, is the one who earns the trust of his clients, and manages the intervention more from within than from without. Given the stakes, you can

A drug and alcohol intervention only matters to the extent that it produces long-term drug and alcohol recovery. That is the only point of the crisis intervention process, the only reason to conduct an intervention in the first place. The catch, of course, is that a drug and alcohol intervention can only work if it
