Peer Recovery Coaches engage with individuals in the community to tear down negative barriers/obstacles in their lives. Through engagement, coaches establish on-going mentoring services to overcome limitations.

 

Recovery Coaches do: Provide long-term support to those who need additional access to resources, react appropriately by providing a safe space for individual growth without judgment/stigmatization. utilize active listening and provide personal testimonies appropriately, promote engagement towards opportunities that promote further growth, and have a history with addiction themselves. 

​

Recovery Coaches do not: Provide transportation for clients directly, supply 24/7 response services, implement a ‘one shoe fits all’ approach to assistance, complete all of the work for the client, discriminate against concepts such as: medication assisted treatment, advanced physical/mental medical diagnoses, etc.. , leave clients in the dark if their barriers outweigh the training of the Recovery Coach, have medical qualifications/credentials; they cannot prescribe medication, nor can they diagnose a client. 

 

Here at Freedom Recovery Center, we notice our community’s need for access to resources such as: Emotional support and stability via therapeutic exercises, housing assistance, transportation, finances, food, assistance with resume building and applying for jobs, etc…

 

Recovery coaches excel with patients when both parties are actively engaged in tearing down self-destructive tendencies for healthier ones! Rather than giving a client tools that are potentially harmful in the long-run; recovery coaches take time to establish healthy boundaries,  provide a safe space for the client to vent, and refer the client to resources that relieves some stress from life circumstances. This process should closely resemble an empire being built over intervals of time. 

 

If you or someone you know is dealing with increased barriers, we feel obligated to assist!! We would be more than happy to support you through anything that you feel is needed in your life to boost you to the next steps of recovery!!
