Meet Kathie
I really do love my work - helping women of all ages find real freedom, from alcoholism and addiction, or those who need additional personal support through a difficult period in their lives. As a Recovery Companion, I support women through the difficult early stages of recovery caused by relapse or during the vulnerable transition from treatment center to the actual "living their recovery", at home. Together, we walk through their daily routines, responsibilities and relationship challenges, amidst all the triggers and obstacles as they present, to help make better choices in real time. Regardless of the challenges at hand, I will serve as a personal support, advocate and safety net with the single goal of helping you successfully navigate back to well-being in every area of your life.
Sober Companions were known to so few, when I entered recovery, 30+ years ago. And treatment centers, let alone the availability of Concierge services, were a mere shadow of what they are today. It's not easy to articulate what the experience of the last three decades in such a wide range of healing recovery practices has given me, but its grace. So, what I know today, is that while we are all complex beings, we are also innately designed for self-correction - we just need help getting untangled, sometimes a lot of help.
I have been fortunate to work with, be trained by and aligned with some of the industry's most effective addiction recovery professionals. What that can equate to for you is a straighter line in your process of discovery and healing - creating a recovery program that is designed to work uniquely for you.
And so, I share the hope and promise of what is on the other side of the pains of addiction - that which you do not yet know or perhaps have just seen a glimpse of. No matter what stage of recovery you are in or what difficulties you have had - your path to freedom from addiction awaits you.
