"A gifted Interventionist, Carol Lawyer is a true asset to the profession. Her heartfelt and caring approach provides a calming, respectful and safe environment for families to effectively navigate the intervention process. It is a privilege and honor to work with Carol and observe firsthand her level of integrity and skill" Jeannette Cutshaw, LMFT, CSAT

"Carol Lawyer loves what she does. She helps people change their lives. Our family realized that we were watching our husband and father kill himself one martini at a time. The deterioration in his physical health was impossible to ignore and gave us the courage, at last, to attempt an intervention. That is when we found Carol. She helped us to understand what is required in an intervention, helped us plan, prepare, structure and carry out the process. Her guidance and support was the calm we needed in the chaos that surrounded us as we dealt with the reality of the addiction in the head of our family and its implications for each of us in the family relationship. Her calm and the structure during the intervention itself is, I am convinced, the reason that we succeeded in getting our loved one to treatment appropriate for him. A year later, Carol continues to care for our family and has been supportive with her counsel as we lived through the rocky first year of recovery. She offered help with identifying treatment possibilities for our youngest child in his recent relapse. Carol not only loves what she does, she loves her clients. I am most grateful that she helped me to change my life for the better." ~MCK

"When we realized that our son was losing control and becoming more and more immersed in his drug use, we were terrified. We were witnessing the slow and steady destruction of a kind and loving son and we knew that having another “talk” with him would only frustrate us and drive him further away. We will be forever grateful that Carol’s name was given to us by an addiction psychiatrist. Once we told her our story, she used compassion and understanding to guide us through the intervention process. We were in uncharted territory, but had the overwhelming comfort of having Carol prepare us in every way for this most transformative event. From our very first meeting, through the preparation and rehearsal, and then intervention itself, Carol provided direction and endless patience during a totally foreign process for us. Our son is thriving and Carol continues to provide support and advice to our family in times of uncertainty. She steered us through a very dark period with her warmth, insight, and authenticity. Carol will forever be viewed by our family as playing a pivotal role in each of our recoveries." Kim

"Carol, our daughter was slowing changing for months before we had our intervention. I did not realize that she had a drug problem. She insisted that there was nothing wrong and nothing to talk about. I thought her attitude was teenage stuff. Boy was I wrong. Looking back and thinking about the way our daughter was acting, I truly feel if we didn't do the intervention with you, I don't feel she would have ever entered treatment. This intervention changed our lives for the positive. Carol, you had never met us as a family before the day of the intervention and you were able to get us moving immediately so that we could confront the situation and offer our daughter an opportunity to save her life. You were awesome! I can't thank you enough for your help and guidance during one of the hardest times in our lives. I'll never forget you and how you helped to save our family. Thank you for your professionalism and guidance." Angie S.
