SOBER COMPANION

What Is a

Sober Companion?

Independence Recovery Coaching client's have found it very useful to have direct care in all life situations. Whether it be transportation to events and appointments, lifestyle suggestions, or just a friend in the moment. Our sober companions are here to assist!  

IRC's sober companions understand addiction and addictive behaviors, we know what cravings look like and how to guide you through them without using. We also know what manipulation looks like and know how to help without enabling.  We use our personal experience and expert training to guide you through hard times to stay clean and sober.
