Frequently asked Questions

Your questions answered

 

  • What is the best way to talk to someone about getting mental health or addiction treatment?

    Starting a conversation about mental health or addiction can be challenging. Approaching it with care, patience, and active listening helps your loved one feel heard and supported.

    Some ways to prepare for an intervention:

    • Focus on listening first. Understand their perspective and concerns without judgment.
    • Gather resources. Explore treatment options such as inpatient rehab, virtual therapy, counseling, or support groups, so you can share information if they’re interested.
    • Consider professional guidance and resources. Clinicians, counselors, or intervention specialists can provide advice on how to approach sensitive conversations safely and effectively.

    The goal is to support your loved one in exploring treatment while maintaining healthy boundaries and fostering open, compassionate dialogue.

  • What should I do if my loved one refuses to get help?

    It’s common for someone struggling with addiction or a mental health disorder to deny a problem or refuse treatment. If this happens, it’s important to approach the situation strategically.

    A counselor, therapist, or intervention specialist can provide coaching, safety planning, or guidance on how to re-approach the conversation effectively. In the meantime, try to remain patient, be supportive, and avoid enabling dangerous behaviour.

  • Do you offer programs specifically for families of people struggling with addiction or mental health issues?

    Yes. At EHN Canada, our Family Support Program helps loved ones heal while learning how to support a family member’s recovery.

    Key offerings include:

    • Family Education Webinar Workshop: A fully virtual workshop every 6 weeks, covering addiction, mental health, codependency, emotional regulation, mindfulness, and self-compassion.
    • Families Connect: Weekly virtual sessions where loved ones can gain knowledge, ask questions, and connect with others experiencing similar challenges.

    These programs provide tools, education, and support so families can navigate recovery together without enabling harmful behaviours.

  • How can I support a loved one without enabling their addiction?

    Finding the line between supporting a loved one in their recovery and enabling their unhealthy behaviour can be difficult. That’s why EHN Canada offers family therapy and education programs to teach structured strategies for providing support while still maintaining healthy boundaries.

    Strategies to support recovery include:

    • Be honest about your concerns
    • Set and maintain boundaries
    • Avoid covering up problems, minimizing the consequences of unhealthy behaviours or giving money that supports substance use
    • Educate yourself about codependency and harm reduction
  • Can I speak to someone even if my loved one hasn’t agreed to treatment?

    Yes. You can contact our admissions team at any time to discuss your situation.

    We can help you better understand treatment options, next steps, and how to support your loved one—even if they’re not ready to seek care yet.

  • What happens after my loved one completes treatment?

    Recovery is an ongoing process. After treatment, individuals have access to Aftercare, alumni communities, and continued support.

    Families can also stay engaged through education and support resources to help maintain progress and rebuild relationships over time.

  • Do I need a referral to get my loved one into treatment?

    No referral is required. You can contact our admissions team directly to discuss your situation and explore next steps.

  • How much does treatment cost?

    We understand that cost is an important consideration for families. Treatment fees vary depending on the type of program and level of care required.

    Our team will work with you to explain costs clearly, review any available insurance coverage, and help you find an option that supports your loved one’s recovery.
