I am considered an expert on interventions. In my heyday I was offered the "lead" interventionist position at Betty Ford and Hazeldon, both prestigious treatment centers of national repute. (I turned them both down because they wanted every referral to come back to them and I didn't think they were the most appropriate facilities a good part of the time.)
I'm thinking of a web site wherein I had topics such as "Tailoring your intervention to particular personality types" where I explain the way I would approach different kinds of people. That would have chapters and be fairly long.
And then I'd hope to have someplace where people could make observations, or ask how to handle Uncle Harry or their kid. "Uncle Harry" would be one thread, "Little Johnny" would be another. So would a general conversational part "Interventions are a waste" and "Why do you hate people who drink" and things like that.
I don't know what would do that. Unlike HZ, each section would have a "hard", unchanging part, where I, right or wrong, pontficate. Under that would come the various discussions.
Blog, web site, I don't know. I do know I don't have the energy to create anything complicated - I just want to offer people hope and show possibilities through dialogue.
