Guiding the Path to Recovery at Waterview Behavioral Health
What is recovery coaching in mental health?
Recovery coaching provides personalized, strengths-based support for individuals working toward emotional wellness or recovery from substance use or mental health challenges. Coaches help clients set goals, build structure, and maintain motivation.
How does a recovery coach differ from a therapist?
A therapist provides clinical treatment, while a recovery coach focuses on daily-life support, accountability, and personal growth. Coaches do not offer psychotherapy but work alongside therapists as part of the care team.
Who can benefit from recovery coaching?
Anyone seeking additional support outside of therapy can benefit—especially individuals in early recovery, transitioning out of treatment, or managing significant life changes.
What can I expect from a recovery coaching session?
Sessions are collaborative and goal-oriented. You’ll identify short and long-term objectives, discuss challenges, and create strategies to stay accountable and balanced in daily life.
How does recovery coaching support long-term mental health?
Recovery coaching promotes sustainable wellness by building self-awareness, consistency, and self-efficacy. It reinforces therapy progress and helps clients navigate real-world stressors with ongoing encouragement.
