Why Hire a Recovery Coach?

For the millions of Americans battling substance use disorders (chemical dependency) the most difficult part of the Recovery is not just finding the path to sobriety… it’s staying on it. During the first year of Recovery, it’s recommended that individuals seek continuing care, aka aftercare, rather than attempt to navigate their recovery alone. While there are many options, hiring a RECOVERY COACH is the one that provides the most individualized approach. Together, the client and coach will create a plan to achieve short term and long-term recovery goals. Most recovery coaches, have experienced their own addictions and recoveries, and so they are able to connect with clients on a personal level and more deeply understand what they’re going through. This way, they can help clients adjust to a happy, healthy & sober lifestyle while providing them with tools for safety and to offset the temptations that occur in everyday life.

A recovery coach partners with individuals and their loved ones/support staff in recovery to meet them exactly where they are at and guide them in their recovery. Although there is no right or wrong time to hire a coach, the most common times for individuals to do so is either immediately when leaving treatment, or after a relapse. Ideally those who have chronically relapsed, professional individuals and young adults highly benefit from the added accountability that a Recovery Coach offers. Recovery coaches can help clients discover their desired goals and realize the discrepancy between those goals and their current behaviors.
