How to Stage an intervention with Oprah & Jeff VanVonderen

If someone you love has fallen into a dark pit of addiction, you may need to hold an intervention.

Oftentimes, an intervention is the best way to save someone's life. Addicts very rarely will admit that they have a problem and seek help on their own; they almost always need help.

In this tutorial, learn how to recognize addiction and what to do if this happens to someone you care about. Get expert advice from professional interventionist (and specialist for A&E's "Intervention"), Jeff VanVonderen, as he tells Oprah what to do if you are losing someone to drugs or alcohol.

If you are in this situation, make sure you do your research and safely attempt to help your friend or relative. And most importantly, stay strong.
