COACHING FOR THE PEOPLE WHO LOVE THEM

The whole household is in recovery.

Family Support coaching for spouses, parents, siblings, and adult children. Done one on one, on your schedule, with the same framework that holds the addict's work.

THE WORK

You did not cause it. You cannot control it. You cannot cure it. And you are still in it.

The slogans of Al-Anon are true. They are also incomplete. Knowing you cannot fix the person in your life does not actually tell you how to live next to them, support them, set limits, take care of your own body and mind, or stay in a marriage that the addiction has hollowed out.

Family Support is one-on-one coaching for the people who have spent years managing a loved one’s addiction or recovery. The frame is the same as the work we do with the addict, three pillars (spiritual, mental, physical), but the application is yours.

We work on:

  • Communication tools that actually land with the person you love
  • Boundaries that are sustainable instead of brittle
  • The grief of the relationship you thought you would have
  • Your own physical health, which probably has not been the priority for a long time
  • The identity question: who you are outside of being the manager of someone else’s life
GOOD MOMENTS TO START

When to Engage

During an active intervention process

When we are running an intervention, family coaching alongside it is what tends to make the outcomes durable.

When the person is newly in treatment or early sobriety

The first 6 to 12 months of someone's recovery are also the highest-friction months for the family. This is when the coaching matters most.

When the relationship has stabilized but you have not

A common moment. Your person is doing well. You are exhausted. You have not had a Tuesday to yourself in years. This is your work.

HOW IT RUNS

Sessions

60-minute private coaching sessions with Chipper. Weekly or biweekly. By phone or video. We do not require a fixed engagement length.

Between Sessions

Practical exercises, reading, and check-ins between sessions. Voice memos are welcome. We do not leave you stranded between Tuesdays.

Pricing

Session-based, not packaged. You can engage for as long as it is useful and step out when it is not. Pricing is shared on the introduction call.

The first call is free.

A 30-minute introduction with no commitment. We will tell you honestly whether this is the right fit, and if it is not, where you should look instead.
