Recovery Coaching

(A Sober Coach)

Many people exiting treatment can find themselves at a new point in life and this can be very overwhelming and present many new challenges. For people that are new in recovery a Recovery Coach, sometimes called “Sober Coach,” can be an important resource which helps guide the newly recovered person through the maze of new situations, helping them to gain insights. Recovery Coaching can be offered in a number of different formats, such as: on-call work, work within a pre-set schedule, or work centered on achieving very specific goals. 

Sometimes Recovery Coaches are hired to develop a specific skill asset such as:

It is important that you take the time to write down a list of questions that are important to ask the Recovery Coach before hiring them for the position. It's important to know what their views are on accountability; what they do for reporting; what their role will be; what their background, experiences and qualifications are; their hobbies and interests; their 12 step program involvement (do they have a sponsor, are they active in the 12 steps, how many meetings do they go to, when was the last time they did a set of steps, length of clean time), and what was their drug(s) of choice as well as other questions that might be important to you or the person accessing the services.

Expert Counselling and Cognitive / Behavioural Therapy Helps Achieve Sobriety

Substance abuse is widely prevalent in modern society. Over the past few years, the problem has escalated to unprecedented levels. Easy availability of drugs has made the problem even worse and far graver. Teenagers and young adults are the ones who get affected the most; most of these people start taking drugs to break away from stress or depression caused due to competition or failure in daily lives. One must however realize that drugs don’t provide the solution, but worsen the situation even further by taking control of the person’s body and mind. There are hundreds of substance abuse treatment agencies in different parts of Canada and the United States which treat drug addicts and alcoholics effectively. In order to provide thorough treatment to the addicted patients, the most substance abuse agencies follow a comprehensive treatment plan.

Substance abuse affects a person in many ways. They lose their jobs, mess up their career and ruin their finances. Their social and personal lives also get shattered. Drug addiction and alcoholism affects not just the addicted person but the whole family as well. In such grave circumstances, timely and proper drug treatment is the only solution.

Recognizing that you need help and working with a drug and alcohol counsellor can help minimize the impact of your addiction!

The first step of the treatment process is actual realization of the situation by the addicted person. They need to realize that substance abuse is a dangerous disease that needs attention from specialists who can help the addict become sober. Treatment agencies work hand in hand with the families of the addict to make the process of sobriety comfortable and easy for patients.
