Recovery Coaching

Recovery Coaching Services provide practical, peer-based support for adults working toward recovery from substance use challenges.

A Certified Recovery Coach uses their lived experience in recovery to offer encouragement, accountability, and guidance. Recovery coaches help individuals navigate challenges, build healthy routines, and connect with supportive resources.

Recovery coaching is non-clinical and focuses on strengthening recovery, resilience, and long-term wellness.

Services may be delivered in person or via telehealth, and can occur in home, community, or agency settings.

Adults 18 and older who are experiencing substance use challenges or are in recovery.
