Welcome to Assisted Interventions Inc., your dedicated partner in addressing the complex mental health needs of adolescents in Michigan. As intervention specialists, we recognize the unique challenges that families in Michigan face and are committed to providing tailored support to help navigate these difficulties.
Understanding Current Concerns
In Michigan, the mental health landscape for teenagers is alarming. A significant number of adolescents are grappling with mental health issues. According to the Citizens Research Council of Michigan, approximately 20% of Michigan’s youth have a diagnosable mental health disorder, with severe impairment affecting one in ten teens. The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated these issues, leading to increased rates of anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation among young people.
The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services reports that suicide is the second leading cause of death for adolescents aged 10-14 and 15-24. Additionally, mental health-related emergency room visits for adolescents aged 12 to 17 surged by 31% in 2020, highlighting the critical need for effective intervention and support.

While our primary focus is assisting teenagers, we also extend our services to young adults. Whether it’s mental health challenges or learning disabilities, we’re here to provide:
Addressing Teenage Mental Health
At Assisted Interventions Inc., we specialize in providing comprehensive intervention strategies tailored to the unique needs of teenagers and their families. Our experienced professionals conduct thorough assessments to develop individualized plans addressing each adolescent’s challenges. We prioritize a trauma-informed approach, considering factors such as race, gender, and identity to ensure practical and sensitive support.
Practical Solutions for Parents:
- Open Communication: Foster an environment of trust and open dialogue where your teen feels comfortable discussing their emotions and struggles without fear of judgment.
- Education: Equip yourself with knowledge about the signs and risks of addiction and mental health issues. Understanding these topics will help you recognize and address them effectively.
- Set Clear Boundaries: Establish substance use, screen time, and social media usage rules. Consistent and firm boundaries can help prevent excessive self-medication behaviors.
- Monitor Social Media: Monitor your teen’s online activities. While respecting their privacy, be aware of any concerning content or interactions that could indicate distress.
- Encourage Healthy Coping Mechanisms: Teach your teen healthy ways to cope with stress, such as exercise, hobbies, mindfulness, or creative outlets.
- Seek Professional Help: If you suspect your teen is struggling with mental health issues or addiction, don’t hesitate to seek professional guidance. A therapist or counselor can provide invaluable support and resources tailored to your teen’s needs.

Testimonials
“Joe and his team made what was for me the most anxiety provoking part of this process, the most seamless, nurturing supportive experience. Joe always either took my calls ...returned texts with a reassuring confident manner, or let me know when he was available to speak. Sherman and Richard were patient, yet firm with my son (who I thought was going to be explosive and difficult) and kept me up to date throughout the transport. If not for them and their gentle guidance, this could have been a disaster.”

"Sherman and Richard helped us through one of the most difficult day of our lives. They were kind and calming and kept our son safe and calm throughout a very long journey. ....They updated us regularly and responded to our texts and calls immediately. Our son did not want to leave them at the end of his journey to Wilderness camp, and I suspect when he gets home he will want to get in touch with them. Clinton also prepared us in advance. He and his staff could not be more professional and kind. I am eternally grateful for the help they provided us on that highly stressful day.”

“We were terrified about letting two strangers take our son to Wilderness Therapy far away. We initially spoke with Clinton, who was also wonderful at calming our fears ....and knew these two guys would be a good match for our son. We could not have been more pleased with how everything went. We worked with Jason and Leighton. Jason was the lead, and he was very calm and reassuring. He prepped us a few days before and just before entering our son's room. Our son is a 17 yr old and on the larger side for his age, we were so unsure how he would react. We entered our son's room and spoke to him for about a minute then introduced Jason and Leighton and they took it from there. We disappeared as they prepared our son to go. It went very quickly and smoothly much to our surprise. We heard from them a couple times along the way and afterward. They were great at allaying our fears and keeping us informed. Thank you!!”
