In-home alcohol recovery coaching, from coaches who’ve been there
In-home alcohol recovery coaching is daily support at home after residential treatment, detox or IOP. A Recover at Home recovery coach brings sober routines, goes to meetings with you and practices the relapse-prevention plan our licensed addiction counselor writes, stepping down over about six months. For clients and families in Colorado and Wyoming.
Leaving treatment is one of the most vulnerable moments in recovery. Our coaches bring daily, hands-on support into your home after residential, detox or IOP, carrying out the plan our licensed clinicians set, and stepping down as you progress.
Built on our eating disorder program: the same daily coaching at home, the same in-house clinical team, and the same step-down plan.

What a recovery coach does with you
Every coach has their own recovery from alcohol or drugs, with at least two years in recovery. Coaches carry out the plan our licensed clinicians write.
Sober companionship
Someone steady beside you in the first weeks home, with routines and sober activities that fill the day.
Going to meetings together
AA, SMART Recovery, or the alumni group your program recommends.
Practicing your relapse-prevention plan
Using the skills from the written plan our licensed addiction counselor sets, in real moments as they come up.
Parties, dinners and holidays
Planning for and practicing the social situations where drinking used to be part of the picture.
Life skills and routines
Sleep, meals, school, work and money, the everyday things that rebuild a life.
Appointments and family
Rides to appointments, a debrief afterwards, and a calmer home your family can lean on.
The step-down model
Example of how step-down support often looks
Most plans run about 6 months after treatment ends, the most common length from start to finish. We determine how much support you need and we step down as you progress through recovery.
- Month 1 About 8 hours/day The first weeks home, when relapse risk is highest. Routines, meetings and someone steady beside you.
- Months 2–3 4–6 hours/day A sober routine takes shape: school or work, meetings together, and the plan our licensed addiction counselor sets.
- Months 4–5 A few hours, 3–4 days/week Fewer hours. More practice in real life: parties, dinners, old friends and holidays.
- Month 6 Weekly check-ins Weekly check-ins. You lead your own recovery, with your meetings and alumni group.
An example only. Your plan and pace are set with your treatment team. See a month-by-month example plan.

what we won’t do
Medical clearance first
Alcohol withdrawal can be dangerous. Heavy daily drinkers start only after withdrawal management or written clearance from a medical provider.No testing or court reports
We don’t take court- or probation-ordered clients, and we don’t run tests for courts.No counseling or assessment
Coaches don’t diagnose, assess or provide counseling. Our licensed clinicians do.
Who leads it
A director who’s been there, and licensed clinicians in charge of the plan
Our alcohol and drug recovery program has its own director: a recovery leader with years of lived experience and peer work, who hires and leads the coaches. Kathryn’s team and Nancy Getter, LCSW, stand behind them.
How do families pay for it?
Private pay, with paperwork for HSA and FSA accounts. For some plans, we can ask your insurer to cover a set block of hours through a single case agreement. It’s a request, not a promise. Contact us to discuss prices. Paying for care
Who is it for?
Clients and their families. For clients under 18, parents sign the coaching agreement and stay part of the plan.
Where do you work?
In your home and out in your community, across Colorado and Wyoming.
Questions about alcohol recovery
Don’t see yours? Ask us directly.
Do your coaches help with detox or withdrawal?
No. Alcohol withdrawal can be dangerous, so anyone at risk starts only after withdrawal management or written clearance from a medical provider. Our coaching begins once it is safe to be home.
What happens if there’s a relapse?
A relapse is not a discharge. Our licensed addiction counselor reviews the plan the same day, and we meet with the family within 48 hours to adjust support, often stepping back up for a while.
Will a coach go to AA or SMART Recovery meetings with me?
Yes. Going to meetings together, or to the alumni group your program recommends, is part of daily coaching, especially in the first weeks home.
Is this the same as a sober companion?
Sober companionship is part of it. Our coaches also practice the relapse-prevention plan our licensed addiction counselor writes, help rebuild routines, and step down over about six months.
