When working with a loved one who is resistant to the idea of getting help, intervention can be a wonderful tool. The myth that an individual must “hit bottom” before becoming willing to accept help is simply not true. A well-executed intervention can create the necessary willingness for your addicted loved one to enter treatment and begin the process of recovery. Below is a list of local interventionists. While we cannot guarantee the outcome or results of your intervention, each of the interventionists below has been vetted and will provide you with excellent information and training to ensure the best outcome possible. Some of them also provide recovery consultation services for the family and addicted individual both during and after treatment to maximize the possibility of long term sobriety. Intervention styles can vary, so make sure you call and ask questions as you interview your potential interventionist.

| Area of expertise: | Most interventionists subscribe to one specific model of intervention. At HOPE Restored Interventions we believe each person responds differently to the different models. Instead of telling you what will work for you and your loved one we will personalize our approach to fit the addiction, the situation and the person. Therefore at the first official consultation, together, we will discuss the most effective method of intervention. We create a strength based, client centered approach to intervention specific to your lived one and family. We can review many different styles and evidence based practice to find a fit for your family. |

| Additional Information: | Will provide service outside the Portland area. My name is Autumn Harris and I have 10 years experience working with Individuals with addiction and mental health disorders. My educational experience is as a Certified Alcohol and Counselor Level II (Bachelor Level), a Masters Degree in Science and I am Qualified Mental Health Associate. Further, I have worked for years with Individuals who lost their way through life and have fallen into the trap of alcohol or drug use to cope. I have years of experience working for the Nation's Largest Addiction Treatment Provider, Faith based recovery, DUII, Youth with addiction, Women with children and LGBTQ community. I can guide you, your family, your friend through the confusing steps of identifying, accepting, assessing, and treating alcoholism or addiction. At its core addiction is an enemy of life. Addiction changes the way the brain communicates and makes signals around emotion and decision making. In turn this makes the person using Alcohol or drugs behave in ways that are irrational, angry, confusing and alienate the people around them. The use of drugs creates such strong dopamine pathways that the brain becomes driven to use drugs in spite of the negative effects on their job, family and children. Alcohol use creates tolerance and dependence, people do not notice the problem as readily as with drugs. I can help. I have performed hundreds of assessment, referrals and using ASAM criteria can make a referent packet for your coworker, friend or loved one after a consult assessment or we can proceed to intervention. Interventions can be awkward and received with denial; I can guide you past this into acceptance and healing. As a experienced interventionist I can guide you into treatment placement or referral for person in need. |
