Successful long term recovery requires strategy
The success of maintaining recovery long term lies in our daily behaviours and mindset. It's a lifelong practice. And, just like business, requires hard work, commitment and discipline. It takes time, patience and perseverence. In return, it can give you a life of joy, meaning and purpose.
I provide coaching for individuals who are seeking a supportive and proactive coach to stay aligned to what they want to achieve in life and ensure they maintain intentional, strong recovery. This includes identifying and overcoming challenging barriers to recovery, including stigma, shame and stress.

Your subconscious mind controls 95 percent of your life.
Today’s science estimates that 95 percent of our brain’s activity is unconscious, meaning that the majority of the decisions we make, the actions we take, our emotions, and our behaviours depend on the vast majority of brain activity that lies beyond conscious awareness. This modelling dictates our behaviour, confidence, self-esteem, resourcefulness, emotional state, resilience, values, morals, ethics and, fundamentally, our reality and the boundaries of who we are.
Addiction recovery coaching
The wolf mentality is the practice of being brave, strong, taking ownership of your life and going for what you want and deserve.

FAQs
What is recovery coaching?
Recovery coaching is a non-clinical, self-directed, strengths-based partnership between coach and client with the goal of achieving long-term recovery and improved quality of life.
As a recovery coach, I help individuals on the path of recovery, before, during, and after treatment. I assist clients with identifying and overcoming barriers to recovery, including stigma and shame.
What are the benefits of recovery coaching?
Triggers will be alive in our day-to-day world, so it’s imperative to create a watertight strategy to manage how we react to those threats to recovery.
By being strategic, having a coach, and putting a structure in place for your recovery, you’ll have the best opportunity for long term recovery.
Some of the many benefits include:
- My assistance with navigating your recovery journey
- Learning evidence-based tools for behavioural change
- Habit forming and goal setting
- Adopting a more balanced and holistic approach to life
- Developing effective practices to help with emotional regulation
- Mindfulness practices for stress reduction and resilience
- Accountability and ongoing support.
How do I know if recovery coaching is for me?
I provide coaching for individuals who are seeking a supportive and proactive coach to stay aligned to what they want to achieve in life and ensure they maintain intentional, strong recovery. This includes identifying and overcoming barriers to recovery, including stigma and shame.
Recovery coaching might be for you if you:
- have just finished a rehab program
- are under pressure in your executive role
- are looking to strengthen your recovery journey
- are feeling ‘wobbly’ and overwhelmed with too much on your plate with work, family life and recovery.
How do sessions work?
Sessions are online, which is least disruptive to your day and allows us to work together wherever you are in the world.
Each session is 60 minutes. However, if there is greater urgency for change, I offer 90 minute appointments.
I usually coach clients once a week for a minimum of 8 weeks. We then review progress and decide whether further sessions would be useful. Later in a coaching program, fortnightly or monthly sessions can be suitable.
However, people are individuals, and each coaching arrangement is unique and tailored to meet the goals you want to achieve. Many of my clients contract my services as a long-term, ongoing agreement. Some need intense coaching support for a week or more when they first leave a treatment centre. In our initial call, we will discuss the best option for you.
What is your approach?
As your recovery coach I will help you identify your blind spots or triggers, and work with you to develop and strengthen a set of tools to keep you on track, even in the most challenging situations. I’ll also be there to ground you with support, guidance and accountability for when things feel tough.
While recovery from substance use is the primary focus, I address your whole life, encompassing health and wellness, self-care, and coping skills.
My coaching method includes evidence-based psychological and behaviour change methods, and neuroscience. I do not ascribe to one particular pathway – my approach honours individuality. I tailor our work together using a range of strategies for the best outcomes.
I help you dive deep into your purpose, your ‘raison d’être’, and your motivation for your recovery journey. This helps you work out what you want, most importantly why you want it, and what could be stopping you, before we create a plan of action together.
