A recent Partnership to End Addiction research roundup highlights compelling data showing that community naloxone training programs revived nearly 90% of reported overdose cases proof that immediate, evidence‑based action saves lives. The same roundup emphasizes that cultural adaptation of evidence‑based practices (EBPs) is critical: tailoring strategies to local populations helps reach vulnerable groups often missed in standard interventions.

That’s exactly where early intervention shines not just by preventing overdose, but by meeting families where they are, with empathy and structure.

Introducing Crosswell Interventions

At Crosswell Interventions, based in Austin and serving Central Texas, we take those statistics to heart. Our mission is clear: guided early intervention, grounded in clinical expertise, to help families step in before things spiral. We believe that structured, compassionate action rooted in proven methods can transform trajectories of addiction and crisis.

Bringing Research Into Personalized Care

As noted in the national roundup, strategies must be adapted to local families and cultures to produce impact. That’s precisely how we operate:

“We don’t apply a one-size‑fits‑all script. We listen, then craft a plan that fits a family’s unique situation cultural background, emotional needs, practical circumstances,” shares Will Crosswell, our LCSW and founder.
“When families feel heard and supported, not judged, they’re far more willing to engage and that engagement often leads to recovery.”

The Crosswell Difference: Intervention With Heart

Compassionate, Clinician‑Led Support

At Crosswell Interventions, every step of the process is guided by licensed, trauma‑informed professionals who combine clinical expertise with deep compassion. We know addiction and mental health struggles affect entire families, not just individuals. Our mission is to create safety, clarity, and a sustainable path forward for everyone involved.

Comprehensive Intervention Services

Our work extends far beyond a single intervention. We provide professional interventions for substance use, mental health crises, and dual diagnoses. Through dedicated case management and treatment placement, we pair families with the care that fits their specific needs.

We also offer recovery coaching and aftercare to guide individuals as they transition into treatment and life afterward, as well as mental health coaching, transportation assistance, and discreet concierge support to remove any barriers to care.

Culturally Informed, Personalized Follow‑Through

Every family’s journey is unique. Guided by research, including findings from the Partnership to End Addiction and the HEALing Communities Study, we tailor interventions to match each family’s cultural values, background, and needs an approach that improves engagement and long‑term success.

Proven Results and Lasting Change

Our interventions lead to treatment acceptance in about one‑third of cases, and our follow‑up care helps many individuals stay committed to their recovery. Families often tell us that our involvement marked the turning point in their loved one’s story.

Support When You Need It Most

Addiction doesn’t wait for business hours, and neither do we. Our team is available 24/7, ready to provide immediate guidance, reassurance, and next steps whenever families need us most.

Voices From the Team

“Our work isn’t coercion it’s invitation,” says one team member. “We help families understand their role in the recovery process. That shift from blame to empowerment often sparks real healing.”

Will Crosswell adds:

“Our goal is clarity. We help people see what’s broken, what’s possible, and how to start rebuilding one step at a time.”

Why This Research Matters and How We Respond

The national dataset shows that education alone isn’t enough you also need accessible, adapted interventions and trained networks of support. Crosswell exists to fill precisely that gap.

We take findings like those from the Partnership’s roundup and transform them into action steps: early listening, family coaching, evidence‑based planning, and culturally-appropriate care. This isn’t theory it’s something families in Austin and Central Texas live every day with us.

A Call to Families Facing Uncertainty
