Armstrong Intervention Services plans and facilitates family and workplace interventions to assist those struggling with the often-devastating effects of alcohol/drug abuse and other addictive behaviors.
Its founder, Ron Armstrong became an Intervention Specialist as a natural outgrowth of his own commitment to recovery, which dates back to 1986 and the unexpected loss of his sister Cary who lost her life to a drug overdose in 1988. Ron co-facilitated his first intervention in 1988 during the early stages of his own recovery. After that, with the help of his friend and mentor Dr. James Fearing, he planned and assisted in many interventions until 1996, when Dr. Fearing asked Ron to join him full-time professionally in helping individuals and families in crisis. Two years later, he became the Director of Intervention Services for Dr. Fearing’s Minnesota-based organization—National Counseling Intervention Services.
In 2000, Ron formed his own company Armstrong Intervention Services. With his office and support staff located in Pacific Palisades, California, Ron’s skillfully designed methods consistently result in stabilizing the seemingly hopeless situations created by addiction not only locally but also, across America and abroad. Over the years, working with a number of highly regarded treatment centers and therapists across the country and with individuals from all walks of life, Ron has earned a reputation for excellence. In the fall of 2002, Ron was recognized by the Betty Ford Center as one of the top five interventionists in the country.
While most Interventions conclude with the “identified patient” admitting for treatment and renewed hope is instilled for all concerned, it is the on-going case management support (during the primary treatment phase) followed by the post-treatment support services (available through its sister company Recovery Support Services, LLC.) that sets Armstrong Intervention Services apart from the rest of the field.
