What is Recovery Coaching?
Peer Recovery Coaches walk side by side with individuals seeking recovery from substance use.
A recovery coach will help a peer to create their own wellness plan and develop their own recovery pathways.
What is the different between peer support and seeing a therapist?
Unlike therapy or case management, peer support uses personal experience and stories to lend support and inspire hope.
Peer Recovery Coaches share their first-hand knowledge, practical guidance, and real-life lessons learned on their own recovery journey.
Is Recovery Coaching for me?
You have a substance use disorder and are interested in exploring your own wellness.
You have a loved one whose substance use concerns you.
You are questioning your relationship to alcohol or other substances.
You are sober curious.
Is abstinence always the goal?
Not necessarily! Everyone sets their own goals, some may choose abstinence, others will choose harm reduction.
