    Intervention Model

    I have seen the best results from a disease-model similar to Alcoholics Anonymous. Ideally all addicts should attend SA. Therapy is sometimes necessary too, usually more in the beginning stages of recovery. I use 12 steps, Hypnotherapy and Chasidic Thought in my therapy work with clients.
