I have developed a systematic, step-by-step method to prepare the family for the Intervention.

• There is a greater than 85% admission rate for treatment when I have been involved in the Intervention.
• I use a database of treatment centers and options, taking into account different factors, including cultural or religious considerations.
• I will provide more detailed information--logistics, cost, and other details about the Intervention.
• Since most Interventions will not be local, we initially “meet” via secure video conferencing or a telephone conference call.
• After sufficient preparation work, and once we decide we are ready for the Intervention, I’ll come to you.
• This format allows us to spend the necessary time preparing for the Intervention.
• These steps are crucial, and should not be rushed.
