Intervention and Loved Ones Support
Struggling to Get a Loved One into Treatment?
How to Help a Loved One Who Refuses Addiction or Mental Health Treatment
You’re here because someone you care about is struggling and you want to help. But chances are, your conversations haven’t gone the way you hoped. Maybe you’ve tried urging them to get help, but all you get is resistance, denial, or frustration. You’re not alone.
About half the enquiries we get come from loved ones reaching out on behalf of someone else. And most find it’s harder than expected to get through.

How to Approach a Loved One About Treatment Without Causing Conflict
The words you choose when talking about addiction or mental health can make or break the conversation. If your loved one reacts with denial, anger, or shuts down, it’s a sign to change your approach. Intervention isn’t about force - it’s about connection, understanding, and timing.
At Noosa Confidential, we help you find the right words and moments to open doors, not close them. Our support guides you through these tough talks with empathy and confidence, so your loved one feels heard - not pushed away.
