Recovery Coaching

An intervention is a single day. Recovery is everything that happens after. Recovery coaching gives your loved one a steady, experienced presence in their corner during the months when relapse risk is highest and old habits are easiest to slide back into. The Firm Addiction Consulting pairs each client with a coach who understands addiction firsthand and stays engaged well beyond the treatment center’s doors.

What Our Recovery Coaches Do

A recovery coach checks in consistently, helps your loved one rebuild routine and structure, and works through the everyday moments that can quietly derail early sobriety: a hard conversation with family, a return to work, a weekend with old friends. Coaches also help clients set goals, stay connected to treatment recommendations, and build the daily habits that make long-term recovery possible, all while reporting back to the family within the boundaries the client has agreed to.

Who This Service Is For

Recovery coaching is built for anyone in early or ongoing recovery who benefits from real accountability between appointments, not just during them: someone recently out of treatment, someone who has relapsed before and wants extra support this time, or a family that wants a professional presence checking in on their loved one without turning every phone call into a confrontation.

How the Process Works

We start by learning about your loved one’s history, treatment plan, and specific risk factors, then match them with a coach suited to their situation. From there, coaching typically includes regular check-ins, goal setting, and support navigating the practical challenges of daily life in recovery. The frequency and length of coaching is tailored to each client, and can scale up during high-risk periods or step back as stability builds.

Recovery Coaching FAQs

  • There is no fixed timeline. Some clients work with a coach for a few months after leaving treatment, while others continue for a year or more, especially during the first year of recovery when relapse risk is highest. We reassess regularly with the client and family and adjust the level of support as things stabilize.

  • No. A recovery coach is not a therapist and does not provide clinical treatment or diagnose mental health conditions. Coaching is practical and action-oriented, focused on accountability, routine, and day-to-day support, and it works alongside therapy and other clinical care rather than replacing it.

  • Recovery coaching is typically billed hourly or through a weekly or monthly package, depending on the level of support your loved one needs. During your initial consultation, we review your family’s situation and put together a plan with clear, upfront pricing so there are no surprises.

  • A recovery coach typically works with a client through scheduled check-ins, goal setting, and accountability over weeks or months. A sober companion provides more intensive, often day-to-day or live-in support during the earliest and most vulnerable stage of recovery. The Firm Addiction Consulting offers both and can help determine which level of support fits your loved one’s situation.
