From surviving to thriving
TOGETHER, we can heal from addiction. As peer coaches, we walk alongside you on your path to wellness. We share our own experiences and the tools we’ve learned, but we also follow your lead.
Our support is confidential, non-clinical and available for anyone over 18 impacted by alcohol or other drugs. Sobriety isn’t required, and we don’t follow a one-size-fits-all program.
- Get emotional support from a peer
- Learn practical skills
- Translate goals into action
- Address barriers holding you back
- Improve your relationships
- Get extra support after a setback
‘A breath of fresh air’
We want to serve as a safe, welcoming space free from judgment. No shame, no hiding. When someone steps through our doors, we hope they feel relief. We want everyone we serve to feel accepted and cared for as a whole person, not someone defined by their addiction alone.
Many share that our office is the first space where they’ve felt safe in a long time. It is such an honor to walk alongside them as they recover and thrive.
The power of the peer
The darkness and secrets we used to run from are what allow us to help others now.
