If you are concerned about someone and your husband/wife or partner/sibling/friend doesn't think he/she has a problem, then our family programme may be able to help.
One of the key features of addiction is that the individuals will often deny that there is any problem. You may also find that you, your family, friends, colleagues become involved in this denial, making excuses for, covering up for, and keeping secret the problems that arise.
We hold open meetings at the Centre every month for families, concerned persons, employers, colleagues and others are invited. During the meeting you will have a chance to discuss the problems. The meeting is lead by one of our Counsellors who will provide support, encouragement, offer advice and answer any question you may have. You will learn about intervention techniques and skills and you can arrange a subsequent meeting with the Counsellor.
An individual meeting with family members can be arranged to discuss the problem in detail -- the way they see the problem, how it affects them, what they are prepared to do, and need to do in order to intervene. Each person is encouraged to prepare for the intervention by deciding on key aspects of their view of the problem and how it affects them. The meeting is facilitated by a professional counsellor.
