YOUR CRISIS COACH
KEN SEELEY: ON FAMILY AND ADDICTION
On this episode of Your Crisis Coach, Scott H. Silverman and Fred Carroll sit down with Ken Seeley, longtime interventionist and star of A&E's Intervention, and his colleague Eric to talk about what really happens before, during, and after a professional intervention. Ken and Eric break down why families wait far too long to get help, why addiction is a family disease and not an individual failing, and why an intervention should never be an ambush. They dig into the psychology behind empty threats, enmeshed family systems, and the shift in the industry away from focusing solely on the person struggling and toward creating lasting change for the whole family unit. The conversation also covers the gap between what reality TV shows about addiction and what recovery actually looks like over months and years, how stigma has and hasn't shifted, and why the fentanyl-driven opioid crisis makes early action more urgent than ever. If you or someone you love is showing warning signs, don't wait for a crisis to make the call.
