When you say that 50% of people are going to fail due to a lack of post-treatment recovery, that statistic is just so outstanding and overwhelming. Something that we also talk about in recovery is the healing process, the science and the biology and all that behind it.
Imagine having someone in your corner who truly understands the ups and downs of recovery because they've been there themselves. In this episode of 'Life Recovery', host Mike Plebanski chats with Christine Michiaels, the Director of Peer Services at Three20 Recovery Center, about the crucial role of recovery coaches. Christine, with her rich background in psychology and over five years in the recovery field, sheds light on how these coaches can be game-changers in maintaining long-term sobriety.
Recovery isn't just about getting clean; it's about staying that way. Christine points out that a staggering 50% of people relapse post-treatment due to a lack of ongoing support. That's where recovery coaches come in. They provide more than just guidance—they offer lived experience and practical advice on everything from housing to legal issues. Imagine having a mentor who not only knows the theory but has also walked the path you're on.
Recovery coaching is tailored to fit individual needs, whether you need daily check-ins or weekly support sessions. And the best part? It's free. Christine emphasizes that having someone who's up-to-date with the latest resources and trends in recovery can make all the difference. This episode is a treasure trove of insights for anyone new to recovery, supporting a loved one, or seeking additional resources for their journey.
Join Mike and Christine as they explore the transformative power of peer support and shared experiences in recovery. Whether you're just starting out or looking to strengthen your sobriety, this episode offers valuable perspectives on why a recovery coach might be the missing piece in your recovery puzzle.
