Various intervention training

Lori believes that every family is in some way unique and based on their strengths, desires, and history each intervention should be individualized to fit the family and client’s needs. Each intervention should be conducted in the most loving and respectful manner possible. For these reasons most of Lori’s interventions use a hybrid model taking pieces from various models such as the Johnson, Family Systemic, and Invitational models. Lori emphasis is on the family, training them and holding them accountable. Without the family solidly behind the intervention and engaging in the process of change and recovery themselves, an intervention or recovery will not and can not be successful.

Lori also believes that as in treatment interventionists should work as a team. That it is necessary to receive on-going supervision, consultation and to collaborate. What sets Lori apart from many interventionist is that she works with another Master Level Clinician to perform most interventions.  This provides for more support and she believes a higher success rate.” Substance abuse, Eating disorders, Love/Sex Addiction, other process addictions Texas and national Family Training and Workshops.
