Resiliency - Our Collective Journey
our approach

We collaborate

No one walks the path alone - not even us. We work with partners to develop tailored programs and connect people to community supports.

We work one-on-one

One size definitely does not fit all.  We use strength-based one-on-one coaching that meets people where they are at.

We apply science

Decades of established research and evidence underpin our approach. Our programs are based on the science of brain development.

We draw on experience

When we say we get it, we get it. All of our coaches have lived experience with substance use disorder.

Testimonials

"I just had my final call with my recovery coach, and it was such a bittersweet moment. Saying goodbye feels difficult, but I am filled with gratitude for the journey we've shared. My recovery coach was my constant guide, shining a light when I couldn’t find my way. She met me exactly where I was, and as I grew stronger in my skills and abilities, she gave me just the right space to push myself into discomfort without ever feeling abandoned. Her support was unwavering, but she never enabled me. What made this experience so empowering was how she blended sharing her own experience, strength, and hope with encouraging me to take that next step, even when I was uncertain. She gave me the confidence to believe in myself, and through her guidance, I learned to trust my own path. Whether I was crawling, walking, or finally ready to run, she was right there with me until I was steady and confident enough to do it all on my own. This experience with my recovery coach helped me grow into my own power, giving me the tools and belief I needed to continue thriving, through empowered choice."
