*Sober Coaches/Sober Companions

Certified Recovery Specialists

Sober coaching is strength-based support for persons with addictions or in recovery from alcohol, substances or other addictive behaviors. Sober coaches help clients work through potentially challenging events such as: going to work, attending business meetings, special events, family gatherings, etc. while providing encouragement, accountability, insight, and understanding through their own personal experiences of recovery.

A great Sober coach is someone who is in recovery themselves; therefore understands what it takes to get sober and stay sober, sets appropriate and healthy boundaries, helps clients determine and reach realistic goals, assists clients with time management, finds sober activities and helps clients identify triggers that may lead to relapse. 

Numerous tools and methods of coaching, goal setting, advocating, guiding and motivating are skillfully applied and utilized during clients time with the coach.

Fresh Starts Recovery services are available hourly, daily, weekly and monthly for a negotiated amount of time. Our services are also offered over the phone, zoom or skype video, and through face-to-face.
