Recovery Coaching
Recovery coaching is a supportive relationship where individuals who are in recovery from addiction or other life challenges mentor and guide peers who are on a similar journey. This approach emphasizes shared experiences, understanding, and mutual support rather than formal clinical training.
​
Key Features of Recovery Coaching:
Lived Experience: Coaches are often individuals who have successfully navigated their recovery journey. They use their experiences to inspire and support others.
Non-Clinical Support: Unlike therapists or counselors, recovery coaches do not diagnose or provide clinical treatment. Instead, they focus on practical guidance, emotional support, and encouragement.
Goal-Oriented: Recovery coaches help peers identify personal goals, develop action plans, and work towards milestones in recovery.
Empowerment: The coaching relationship is based on empowering the peer to make decisions, take control of their recovery, and build resilience.
Holistic Approach: Coaches may address a wide range of life areas, including relationships, employment, health, and personal growth.
Relapse Prevention: Coaches offer tools and strategies to navigate triggers and challenges, reducing the likelihood of relapse.
