One may ask why would we want to expose ourselves to such emotional and spiritual pain that is involved in an intervention? Our answer is, “We do not want to see family and individuals suffering from substance dependency and addiction.” We have traveled the road of addiction; We understand the pain and suffering that substance abuse has placed on the people who cared about their loved one most. When someone hits rock bottom they are spiritually, emotionally, mentally, physically, socially and financially bankrupt. At this point friends and family do not know what else to do for the one struggling with drug and alcohol addiction. When all of the family is sick and tired of the lies, erratic behavior, bizarre mood swings, manipulation and lack of self-care, Pathway Interventions will step in and help! When you have finally reached that point of “What else can I do?” or maybe even wanting to give up. This is when the Intervention Specialists can help! We believe and know that drug and alcohol interventions is the best thing that should happened, not only for the one struggling with addiction and overall well-being, but for the family’s sanity and safety. If our clients could change anything about the past it would be: “I wish we would have done the intervention sooner!”

 

From the Founder of Pathway Interventions:

I was an addict for 15 years. I used anything I could get my hands on that would let me escape from feeling. I would drink until I was belligerent, smoke pot until I was in a coma, and drop acid until the chemical was not affecting me anymore. I would snort, shoot and swallow any kind of pain-killer. I would use enough cocaine and crack to give any healthy person a heart attack. I know what it is like to wake up every morning worrying about how I was going to get my next fix. I have been to the point of complete exhaustion but still found a way to use. I have been in the same place as the person you so dearly love. “I have been to the bottom and back!” If my family and friends did not use the approach of an alcohol and drug intervention, I would not have made it! I would be dead!

I am a Board Certified Level II International Interventionist, C.N.D.A.I (Certified National Drug and Alcohol Interventionist), Certified Addictions Therapist Level II and have had extensive training in the A.R.I.S.E Model of Intervening. I am very passionate about what we do and we offer effective methods to help you and your loved one. I have 15 years of experience in the field of addiction. We service all of New Mexico, NM, Arizona AZ, Colorado CO, Wyoming WY, Nevada NV, Idaho ID, California CA, Kansas KS, Oklahoma OK, Nebraska NE, Texas TX, and Utah, UT. I have been trained in several styles of interventions and have facilitated hundreds of interventions all over the United States. I have worked for several treatment centers located in Salt Lake City, Utah and Scottsdale, Arizona helping others just like you and your loved one to get the lives back that they deserve. I have been there, I know all the excuses, tricks and manipulation an addict uses and typical behavioral patterns that an addict displays.

It is you and your family who intervenes. My job is to help you correctly and effectively approach you’re loved one in a supportive, non-threatening or non-judgmental fashion in order to get the one you’re concerned about into the proper facility. There is nothing more exciting to us than to be a part of God’s work and to witness a family coming together for one purpose: to get their loved one into treatment.

Sincerely,

 

Travis Gardner BCII II, C.A.T II, C.N.D.A.I.
