Intervention & Addiction Frequently Asked Questions

Pacific Interventions offers a comprehensive range of addiction support services including outpatient and inpatient addiction treatment, professional intervention planning and facilitation, family counselling, drug and alcohol testing, recovery coaching, aftercare planning, and specialised monitoring services such as Soberlink.

Outpatient treatment allows clients to receive structured therapy and support while living at home and maintaining daily responsibilities. Inpatient treatment involves residing in a therapeutic environment that provides 24/7 clinical support, withdrawal management, structured programming, and peer community support.

A professional intervention is a carefully planned conversation facilitated by a trained specialist. The goal is to help a resistant individual recognise the impact of their substance use and accept treatment. Intervention planning includes assessing family dynamics, preparing participants, and structuring a supportive, non‑confrontational meeting.

Pacific Interventions provides workplace drug and alcohol testing—including pre‑employment, random, post‑incident, and return‑to‑duty tests—and private testing tailored to individual or family needs, ensuring compliance and accurate reporting.

Aftercare refers to ongoing support services provided after primary treatment to help individuals maintain recovery, manage triggers, and prevent relapse. Components can include continued counselling, support groups, recovery coaching, and structured planning for life transitions.

Family counselling supports loved ones by addressing communication challenges, rebuilding trust, setting healthy boundaries, and helping families understand addiction’s impact. This collaborative work enhances the recovery environment and strengthens support systems for the individual in treatment.

Recovery coaching benefits individuals at any stage of recovery—from transition out of formal treatment to long‑term sobriety maintenance. Coaches work one‑on‑one to develop coping strategies, build routines, reinforce accountability, and connect clients with community supports.

Soberlink is a certified alcohol monitoring system that combines breath alcohol testing with identity verification and real‑time reporting. It enhances accountability during recovery or in agreements where verified sobriety documentation is required by family members, treatment teams, or legal entities.

Signs that someone may need help include escalating substance use, physical and psychological dependence, impaired daily functioning, and resistance to attempts at change. A professional assessment by Pacific Interventions can help determine the most appropriate level of care.
