Signature Services
Coach to Intervene (CTI)™
CTI is a crisis-driven service designed to assist and support your family in assessing and customizing a care plan to address your loved one’s mental health, substance abuse, and trauma challenges.
Highly effective in helping your family better understand how to support, not enable, your loved one, CTI is our proprietary model with proven successes. We will educate family members while supporting their loved one through an intervention process.
This is often the first step to an entire shift in how a family responds to mental health or substance abuse – and substantially increases the success rate of a healthy outcome.
This mindful and preparatory approach is paced in accordance with your family’s readiness and allows the family to better prepare for the next and healthiest recovery step. Often families are afraid to intervene with their loved one’s challenges. Together, we will determine if an actual in-person intervention is needed.
Intervention – CTI
You may have a perspective that an Intervention is frightening. We take the mystery out of the process.
Through our approach, we take into consideration past treatment, developmental trauma, what’s worked, and what hasn’t worked. We slow down and review what has worked in the past and what has not been effective. Most importantly, we look at why previous attempts at healing have failed and design a different path to fit the needs of your family and loved one.
The Intervention process includes trauma-informed pre-intervention, family intervention consulting, and customized treatment planning. We also vet any potential and appropriate treatment facilities and transportation to the facility. We help the family understand how their emotional and financial contribution can lead to or deter from a successful intervention. This step will occur within the 30-day period, as needed.
Immediate Crisis Intervention
Certain situations call for immediate action to help save your loved one’s life.
Brass Tacks Recovery enlists the most creative and effective intervention modalities based on our education and numerous years of experience. The primary intent of an intervention is to interrupt the cycle of negative mental health behaviors, such as compulsive habits, psychoactive mood-altering substance use, and unresolved trauma issues.
As a family member, you are an active and vital part of the intervention process. Equally important is the necessity to educate your family to reduce shame while supporting the development of healthy boundaries, communication, and adult responsibility.
This service is often followed by Comprehensive Wraparound Case Management Services.

Family Support Coaching
This service was created and designed to support families in a real-time customized, practical, and situationally responsive way. Family Support Coaching is hands-on and designed to assist and support a family in determining an effective approach to dealing with a loved one’s substance abuse issue and/or mental health challenges. Brass Tacks Recovery and the family are in contact a minimum of one time per week, yet often more frequently via text, phone, and/or email. This service has proven effective in educating and helping a family system better assess and respond to their loved one’s current crisis and/or growth state while the entire family system develops healthy coping skills to prevent repeated negative behaviors or episodes requiring treatment.
Mental Health & Support Companion
Companionship for clients struggling with addiction or mental health issues include coaching, encouragement, and safety precaution. A companion can be utilized at any point in the recovery process. This can include but not be limited to; transports between facilities, assistance in organizing and scheduling daily activities, counseling sessions, visits with physicians and other healthcare providers, 12-step meetings and/or recovery support groups, exercise and/or meditation, daily meals and grocery shopping, social activities, spiritual activities based on client’s beliefs, transportation to and from the activities described above and/or treatment centers.
Additional Services
Crisis Consulting
This service is often an introduction to Brass Tacks Recovery. Crisis consulting provides immediate support to a family in crisis. We take crisis seriously as, in a worst-case scenario, it could result in fatality. Crisis situations vary, and so do our responses to them. Some crises can include, but are not limited to, a legal issue, missing person/run away, hospitalization, and/or a family feeling extremely overwhelmed and incapable of handling a situation with their loved one when he/she is a danger to themselves or others. Our team will quickly assess the situation, provide necessary resources, and guide the family to the most immediate and safest solution. Many families will begin with this service and move forward with other Brass Tacks Recovery services.
Recovery/Healthy Life Integration Coaching
A professional recovery coach provides one-on-one and/or face-to-face mentorship support for the recovering individual. The role of a Brass Tacks Recovery coach is to guide and mentor the individual as they face critical and often vulnerable life challenges that can affect physical and emotional steps to recovery. Because change can trigger emotions, a recovery coach helps the client adjust to the transition from a residential or intensive outpatient program into mainstream life. The coach also helps the client establish a consistent routine and healthy boundaries. This is done by supporting either their immersion into a 12-step program, teaching day-to-day coping skills and how to set and achieve goals, or new ways of relating to others without resorting to chemicals or addictive behaviors. Not all clients at Brass Tacks Recovery struggle with addiction; some coaching provided is focused and customized around life skills, relationships, career success, and/or vitality.
Alcohol and Drug Deterrent Program
Brass Tacks Recovery has a variety of alcohol and drug deterrent tools. We customize a monitoring and/or drug screening program, which can include; various urine analysis testing methods and/or portable sober tracking devices that support each individual, whether they are currently engaged in treatment or have reintegrated into mainstream life.
