“Coaching refers to the activity of a coach in developing the abilities of a client seeking sobriety (or a drug free lifestyle). Coaching tends to focus on an existing problem (from which to move away) or a specific outcome that the individual wishes to achieve (move towards).” [original source Wikipedia ; edited for Sober Coaching]
Sober Coaching is where the actual healing of the client begins.
Sober Coaching is very effective short term and impacts upon the quality of the client’s lifestyle in the long term. It’s where the magic of recovery occurs.
Sober Coaching takes people through their own journey of self discovery and is highly effective for people with drinking and drug problems that don’t require a detox but do need some outside help learning how to stay sober permanently.
Miracles happen through Sober Coaching. It’s the point where clients make serious and significant changes to their attitudes and behaviour.
The therapeutic process we utilise is individually arranged around our own previously proven model of recovery and it’s desired outcome is to specifically improve the quality of someone’s life whilst they remain alcohol and drug free.
Since all clients are unique, so we’ve designed our own Sober Coaching Workbook that allows everyone the opportunity to discover their own patterns and strategies for living, and replaces them with healthier, sober living ones. We use this Sober Coaching Workbook with all of our Sober Coaching clients, because it’s been proven to be highly effective at creating permanent change and bring about recovery.
In face to face Sober Coaching sessions we can deal with all the specific situations and levels of crisis they may be encountering.
Sober Coaching can be delivered face to face or over a Webcam via Skype / FaceTime / Google HangOut over the Internet, or even telephonic as required.
Sessions typically last from between 45 and 90 minutes and can even be as frequent as once or twice per day. We wouldn’t recommend less than once per week.
For those that require a detox or residential service, we can make recommendations and arrangements for this, continuing with Sober Coaching upon the completion of their respite.
We’re convinced that Sober Coaching is a very suitable solution for those who are limited by free time, but yet are still serious about changing their behaviours.

Testimonials
As I listened I was taken back your openness and honesty. I identified with so much of your story. That hope you gave me, persuaded me admit to myself that I needed help.
It’s been almost a year since we completed sober coaching, I now have a sense of freedom, peace and contentment which back then I couldn’t have imagined.
Life just keeps getting better. Thank you for your help and inspiration.
I look forward to your book in the hope that it may help others not lucky enough to have your number.
Your book has been inspiring, enlightened me, made me cry, filled me with despair yet hope and longing for my daughter to one day see that glimmer of light that will grow and help her very soon to realise what she has to do to get well.
Ian, I feel I’ve tried everything, I’ve been soft, tough, soft again, and at present am trying just to love her, be her mum but not giving her any cash but still reminding her that help is at hand once she accepts her need and asks for it. I missed my tube and bus stops several times as I was so engrossed in it! The 12 steps you describe sound amazing and I so want S. to have that chance. Many thanks
