Mastering Interventions: Insights from BlueCrest's Richard Hession and John Troche
A proper intervention means you have a bed lined up. But you know, you'll call the place and you'll say: look, we're not going to need the bed for a little bit, it's fine.
Think you know everything about interventions just because you've seen them on TV? Think again. In this episode of 'The Other Side with Richie H.', BlueCrest CEO Richard Hession teams up with interventionist John Troche to pull back the curtain on what really happens behind the scenes. Forget the dramatic confrontations you see on reality shows; the real process is far more complex and nuanced.
John shares some eye-opening stories, like the time he had to track down a homeless loved one or convince a client that their dog would be safe during treatment. He also talks about the critical importance of selecting the right participants and doing thorough background research before any meeting takes place.
And it's not just about getting someone to agree to treatment; there's a whole aftercare plan that needs to be meticulously arranged, including finding a bed and ensuring ongoing support. Whether you're someone who might need to stage an intervention or just curious about the process, this episode is packed with valuable insights and practical advice.
