Recovery Coaching with Monitoring

Weekly 30-minute coaching sessions help you focus on your progress toward self-identified addiction recovery goals like building a support system, managing stress, rebuilding relationships, taking responsibility or strengthening emotional resilience. You can include family members in your virtual coaching sessions so you're all learning and growing together. Random drug testing helps you stay focused and accountable. Program duration is 3 to 12 months.

Brief Intervention Coaching

Weekly one-hour coaching sessions help you target a specific, self-identified quality-of-life goal like evaluating the impact of your alcohol or drug use, revitalizing your recovery skills, or navigating a major life transition (loss, career change, relocation). Coaching duration is intentionally brief (a one- or two-month period) to equip you with tools and insights to manage challenges on your own.

Monitoring

Randomized drug testing (Breathalyzer, urine drug screen, saliva) to provide additional accountability in the recovery process and/or documentation of ongoing abstinence. Includes minimal recovery coaching in the event of a positive test. This three-month program includes monthly reports.

Recovery Check-Ups

Regular check-up calls with a recovery coach post-treatment help you troubleshoot issues, focus on next steps, and identify additional resources or sobriety supports. We start with three check-up calls, but you can sign up for more.

Recovery Coaching Q&A 

How could Connection coaching help me?

Depending on your personal goals and needs, Connection coaching can be incredibly helpful. Here's how coaching can help you:

  • Get started in a new direction – Are you sober curious but having trouble not using?
  • Get support during a challenging time – Are you in long-term recovery but feeling the stress of a job change, divorce or other loss?
  • Get re-energized to work your plan – Are you starting to feel bored or restless in your recovery?

Give us a call to discuss your needs and see if coaching would be a good fit.

Can my family be involved in Connection coaching?

Yes. There are two main ways for family members to be involved:

  • A Connection participant can designate a family member to receive accountability updates and verification reports.
  • Family members (spouse, parent, other loved one) can work with a Connection coach on their own recovery and/or well-being goals.

Do I have to be in recovery to participate in Connection coaching?

No, Connection coaching—especially brief intervention coaching—can help you with all kinds of challenges, not just recovery coaching. Because it's a short-term, focused approach, brief intervention coaching could be ideal if you:

  • Need support navigating a transition (new job, divorce)
  • Need a nudge and positive reinforcement to make a lifestyle change
  • Need accountability to stay on track with a personal goal 

Do I have to be a patient (or former patient) of Hazelden Betty Ford?

Connection coaching is open to all who need support. There's no need to have been a Hazelden Betty Ford patient to sign up for our coaching services.

Without Connection, I don’t think my son could have managed his transition to a new city and a new school and, most important, to a recovery mind-set. Connection was critical for his movement into a journey of recovery. So yes, it made a big difference. Thank you.
