Recovery Coaching: Discover Your Path to Lasting Recovery and a Fulfilling Life

Personalized 1:1

Recovery Coaching & Life Coaching

Unlock Your Potential with Comprehensive Personalized Support

There are three distinct stages in a life of recovery:

1. Survive Life (Early Recovery): Focus on stabilizing and overcoming the immediate challenges of addiction, healing from trauma, and building a strong foundation for sober living.

2. Live Life (Stable Living): Develop resilience, find balance, and start experiencing life fully—strengthening relationships, creating positive habits, and enjoying newfound freedom.

3. Create Your Life (Thrive Beyond Old Self): Move beyond past identities and limitations, building a purposeful, self-directed life aligned with personal values, goals, and dreams.

My integrated approach combines the best of traditional therapy and innovative recovery coaching techniques. This powerful combination allows us to address both the underlying issues fueling your addiction and the practical challenges of maintaining long-term sobriety.

I offer a unique, integrative approach tailored specifically to you and the stage of recovery you are in. I believe that each individual's path to recovery and well-being is as unique as their fingerprint, which is why I've developed a personalized approach that draws from the best of evidence-based practices and positive psychology principles.

Who I Can Help

Whether you're just exploring your options for reducing or eliminating drinking or drug use or other addictive behaviours (sex addixtion, pornography, food, codependency, and other behavioural 'process' addictions), or in early mid or late stage recovery, I can help you find your way back to health and to a thriving future.

I am committed to providing a holistic treatment experience that not only addresses your immediate concerns but also equips you with the skills and insights to continue thriving long after our sessions end.

Together, we will improve your life

A Personalized Approach to Healing

At the heart of my practice is you. I start by listening deeply to your story, understanding your challenges, and identifying your strengths. Together, we'll craft a customized recovery plan that addresses your specific needs, goals, and preferences. With both training in Addiciton Recovery as well lessons from my own recovery journey, I understand the challneges and potential stumbling blocks to sustained recovery. This plan isn’t set in stone; it’s a living document that evolves as you progress, ensuring that our work together remains relevant and effective at every stage of your journey.

Integrative Personalized Therapy

As both a coach and a counsellor I can support you both with the habits and practices of recovery while also supporting you in adressing any underlying personal and emotional issues that may be holding back your recovery. My approach, which I call Integrative Personalized Therapy, combines time-tested psychological techniques with cutting-edge positive psychology interventions. This powerful blend allows us to not only address immediate concerns but also cultivate lasting well-being and personal growth. Drawing on models like client-centred therapy, cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), relational healing, and the latest insights from the neuroscience of change, we work collaboratively to enhance your emotional resilience, cognitive flexibility, and recovery capital.

Strengths-Based, Empowering, and Future-Focused

What sets my services apart is the emphasis on your inherent strengths and resources. Instead of focusing solely on problems, we’ll identify and leverage your unique abilities to overcome challenges and achieve your goals. This strengths-based perspective fosters a sense of empowerment and optimism, accelerating your progress and enhancing your overall quality of life.

I believe that, as we heal the heart, renew the mind, and overcome old habituated patterns, we can find new freedom. By learning about neuroplasticity and the power of change, you can break free from long-standing patterns and reshape your thoughts, actions, and feelings to create a more empowered future.

A Collaborative Partnership for Change

Our relationship is a partnership. I bring expertise and a toolkit of effective strategies, while you bring invaluable insights into your own experiences and aspirations. Together, we’ll create a safe, supportive environment where you can explore, heal, and grow. I understand that recovery often involves facing hidden, unconscious beliefs and emotional patterns, and I am here to guide you through those challenges with compassion and clarity.
