recovery coach
Addiction support guide
A recovery coach is a person who provides guidance and support to someone overcoming addiction or other behavioral challenges.
Unlike therapists or counselors, recovery coaches typically draw on their own lived experience with recovery rather than clinical training.
They help with practical matters—accountability, goal-setting, navigating obstacles—rather than treating underlying psychological conditions: My recovery coach checks in with me every week.
