Ben, Tom and all the Intervention 180 staff blend several styles of intervention to tailor fit their services for each family. Through the years they have found that there are no cookie cutter interventions and that each intervention is as unique as the families themselves. Intervention 180 specializes in addiction, alcoholism, gambling, mental health, sex-addiction, eating disorder and troubled teen interventions. "As two young men we wanted to start a company that not only helps the average individual but was capable of reaching troubled adolescents".
Ben was also featured in The Wall Street Journal for an upcoming book he will be releasing "Packing Lite". It is an autobiographical account of his own struggles with heroin addiction and how he finally got clean and sober at 19 years of age. "I wanted to give some hope to the chronic relapsers. I went through county detox centers, mental hospitals and treatment center after treatment center. Then came that time I was finally willing to take some direction." Ben often expresses a deep gratitude for the years he has now been clean and sober.
Ben holds several credentials in the addiction field such as, Board Registered Interventionist Level II, Certified Masters in Addiction Counseling, Certified Addictions Therapist Level II and a Certified Dual Diagnosis Clinician. The majority of Ben’s practicum and experience was gained in his years as a primary counselor for Arlene Rosen, at Michael’s House in Palm Springs California.
