What is intervention?

An Intervention is an occasion on which a person with an addiction or other behavioral problem is confronted by a group of friends or family members, or just the interventionist, in an attempt to persuade them to address the issue. Most interventionists work in a crisis setting and disrupt the behavior on demand. A person would hire an addiction interventionist to get help for an alcoholic, drug addict or other affliction causing harm to the client or the family.

Do I need a degree or license to take this course?

No license or degree required. This certification is open to anyone who wants to make an impact—whether you’re a coach, clinician, peer in recovery, or someone who’s lived through addiction in your own family. We give you everything you need to start working as a professional interventionist immediately after completing the course.

Will this certification help me if I already work in a treatment center or clinical setting?

This certification will elevate your skillset and income. You’ll gain advanced intervention techniques, updated legal training, and coaching tools that most therapists and clinicians were never taught—making you more effective in your current role and opening doors to private practice.

Why would someone choose a certified interventionist over a therapist or sponsor?

Interventionists serve a different, critical role: we step in when someone is actively in crisis and refusing help. Therapists and sponsors are powerful supports after someone accepts care—but interventionists are often the ones who get them into recovery in the first place.

Can I really make a career out of this?

Yes and most of our graduates do. Certified Advanced Clinical Intervention Professionals often charge $2,500–$10,000+ per case, and are in demand by treatment centers, private clients, and families in crisis. We also provide job board access, business training, and direct referrals to help you start or scale your practice.
