Both sober and addiction coaches are peer support specialists with advanced skills for working with people in substance abuse recovery. Most recovery coaches with such experience could fill either role, but the two have distinct focuses.
Sober coaching
Sober recovery coaches focus on offering the following aspects of support to the newly sober:
- Navigating social events
- Managing friends who still use
- Developing a relapse prevention plan
- Boosting support during high-risk times
- Reminding them why they got sober
Addiction coaching
An addiction recovery or life coach helps those still in an active stage of addiction who want to stop their drug use. Addiction coaches commonly work with people on the following:
- Building motivation to get clean
- Harm reduction
- Starting detox or inpatient treatment
- Communicating with family members
- Discussing treatment options

What is a peer support specialist?
Peer support specialist is the formal term for a recovery coach. A peer support specialist has lived experience dealing with and recovering from mental health issues and/or addiction/substance misuse. They have then undertaken additional training to support people struggling with these same issues.
Because of their unique perspective, peer support specialists can provide types of support that cannot be learned through standard professional clinical training.

Our team at Modern Recovery Services includes several experienced recovery coaches. Our emphasis on peer support specialists is just one of the many ways Modern Recovery differs from other mental health and substance abuse treatment programs.
