Recovery Companion Support

Professional Support for Critical Moments in Recovery

Some individuals need help beyond the therapy session or treatment facility, transitional or Sober living is not always an option for women, either by geographical or other constraints. This is particularly true for women in middle or later stages of life returning to Midwest regions. As a recovery companion, I provide customized one-on-one support during crucial times of transition.

Transition home following residential or inpatient treatment.
Companion support during initial adjustment to PHP or Outpatient treatment.
Persons facing stressors like court dates, job interviews, or family visits.

Companionship offers structure, emotional support, and accountability. I tailor my involvement based on what’s needed—ranging from daily visits to overnight stays or scheduled accompaniment throughout the week.
