Addressing Teen Addiction in Wisconsin
Wisconsin faces significant challenges when it comes to teen addiction and behavioral issues. Several factors contribute to these problems, including:
- Substance Abuse: Alcohol, marijuana, and prescription drug misuse are prevalent among teenagers in Wisconsin. The state’s high rates of binge drinking, combined with the easy accessibility and social acceptance of these substances, often lead to experimentation and addiction.
- Mental Health Issues: Many teens in Wisconsin struggle with mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder. These issues can contribute to or exacerbate substance abuse and other behavioral problems.
- Social Pressures: Peer pressure, academic stress, and family dynamics can all influence a teenager’s likelihood of engaging in risky behaviors. Social media also plays a significant role in shaping teens’ perceptions and actions.
- Behavioral Problems: Issues such as truancy, defiance, and involvement in criminal activities are often intertwined with substance abuse and mental health struggles.

At Assisted Interventions Inc., we understand that facing teen addiction can be an overwhelming and heart-wrenching experience for families. We are here to tell you that there is hope and light at the end of the tunnel. Change is possible; you don’t have to face this journey alone. Our compassionate services include:
Intervention Specialists
Our highly trained intervention specialists work closely with families to develop personalized intervention plans. We recognize the unique needs of each family and teenager, ensuring that our approach is tailored to support and guide you through this challenging time.
Treatment Admission Navigation
Once a treatment facility has been found, we help families navigate the admission process, especially when there is resistance from the teenager. We aim to make this process as seamless and stress-free as possible, providing the necessary support to ensure a smooth transition into treatment.
Ongoing Support
Recovery is a long-term journey; our commitment to your family doesn’t end with the initial intervention. We provide ongoing support and follow-up services to ensure that teens and their families continue to receive the help they need. We believe in the possibility of change and are here to support you every step of the way.
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!!”
