How to do an intervention

In this groundbreaking work, Mr. Bruno shares personal and professional insight into how addiction and interventions work.

The book begins with the author’s own story of addiction and intervention, followed by a chapter written by his own mother, describing his intervention from her viewpoint

The book includes “what to do and how to do it,” plus a number of case studies taken from the author’s two decades experience in the field.

That said, no book can turn a mother, father, sibling or child into an interventionist. If you need professional help, get it before you play a game you have no experience with. The best scenario – if you know you need help – is to hire an professional interventionist and let him play the cards from beginning to end, otherwise you may create an even larger chaos than the one you already face.

Brute, Emotional Force “He who angers you conquers you.” ~ Elizabeth Kenny   When I see an addict ripping into his mother in response to an offer of help, I see an addict trying to control the outcome of the argument using brute, emotional force. I see someone who doesn’t want to do something, improvising ways…

The Tyranny of Hopelessness (excerpt from More Than Hope)

The following is an excerpt from my book, More Than Hope – Intervention Guidebook. Hopelessness: 1. Without hope [a hopeless prisoner] 2. Causing one to lose hope; discouraging [a hopeless situation]. Using addicts and alcoholics often attempt to destroy interventions by creating feelings of hopelessness in those around them, especially in their parents, spouses, children –…

Interventions and Panic

The chaos in the life of the addict you’re trying to help has has left a wake of emotional and financial wreckage. The events that led you to decide to do an intervention have also left you in a state of panic. Now, you’re confronted with actually doing an intervention. What does that mean? Disaster?…

Deception in an Intervention – Playing to Win
An intervention is one of the most loving things a family can do, but the reality of doing one effectively may require calculated deception. Don't immediately start beating yourself up about it as a lot of parents and children of alcoholics, spouses of addicts tend to do. The fact is, my mother deceived me in order...

Dear Steve, I can’t seem to find the right words to express how grateful we are for the intervention with our son.   I thought intervention was a third party who helped communication between the addict and the family.  I did not realize the scope of your job… read more

Dear Steve, Where do I begin?  It all happened so quickly, thanks to you.  I truly believe in providence, and every door was opened and every step fell into place.  All in a little over a week, I placed a call to the treatment facility, who referred me to a “professional interventionist”… read more
