Recovery Coaching

A Recovery Coach is a motivator and cheerleader that believes in a recoveree’s capacity for change. They are an ally and confidant, always prepared to actively listen. You can expect a coach to be a truth teller who provides honest feedback and offers suggestions. They are a role model and offer their own life as an example of healthy living. A coach can help you identify problem areas and assist you as a recoveree to problem solve. They can provide linkages to the recovery community, treatment, and other supports. They are an advocate and can act as a representative for the recoveree when requested. Your coach is an equal and recovery advocate.
