Recovery & Life Coaching for Individuals and Families (non-clinical)
When the weight of the world feels overwhelming, support can help you move forward one step at a time. At Progress Is Progress, I offer non-clinical coaching for people and families who want support with addiction recovery, everyday stress, and life changes. No shame. No pressure. Just honest guidance to help you build stability, strengthen relationships, and keep moving forward. Coaching is not therapy or medical treatment. If you’re in crisis, call or text 988.
Practical Coaching for Substance Abuse Recovery, Mindfulness, & Family Life
Recovery is not only about stopping a behavior. It is about understanding what is driving it, building healthier coping skills, and repairing the parts of life that have been affected. I offer support grounded in lived experience, my CSAC training in substance use, and a deep respect for each person’s story.
Porn addiction can become a private struggle that affects mental health, relationships, confidence, and daily life. I offer confidential porn addiction coaching for people who want to understand their patterns, identify triggers, and build healthier ways to cope without shame or judgment.
This coaching is grounded in my lived recovery experience and practical recovery tools. I’m not a certified sex addiction therapist (CSAT); if you need that kind of care, I’ll help you find one. Coaching can help you reduce secrecy, rebuild self-trust, strengthen accountability, and take steady steps toward a life that feels more honest, connected, and in your control.
Gambling addiction is not only about money. It can create anxiety, shame, secrecy, relationship strain, and deep instability at home. I offer gambling addiction coaching for people who want help understanding their behavior, interrupting the cycle, and making steady changes that support long-term recovery.
Coaching can help you understand the cycle of gambling, identify high-risk situations, build healthier coping skills, and create structure for recovery. Because gambling addiction often affects partners, children, and other loved ones, I also support family members with tools for boundaries, communication, and rebuilding trust without enabling harmful patterns.
Sex addiction can affect your emotional health, self-worth, relationships, and daily life. I offer confidential sex addiction coaching for people who feel caught in compulsive sexual behavior and want support without shame or judgment.
This coaching may focus on identifying triggers, managing urges, strengthening accountability, improving communication, and developing healthier ways to cope with difficult emotions. For individuals and families affected by sex addiction, I offer direct support, affirmation, and a focus on steady progress instead of shame. Partners dealing with betrayal trauma may benefit from a licensed therapist, and I’m glad to refer.
Social media addiction can affect sleep, focus, self-esteem, relationships, and emotional well-being. I provide confidential coaching for people who feel stuck in compulsive scrolling, constant checking, online comparison, or phone use that has started to interfere with daily life.
When staying busy becomes a way to cope, avoid emotions, or prove your worth, burnout can take over more than your work life. I provide coaching for burnout and workaholism with a practical, compassionate approach that supports relationships and overall well-being.
Coaching may help you identify warning signs, manage stress, set boundaries, reduce compulsive work habits, and reconnect with the people and routines that matter. For clients also seeking mental health life coaching or life coaching for families, burnout support can be part of a larger plan to restore balance, communication, and stability at home. Recovery from burnout is not just taking time off. It is learning how to make lasting changes.
I provide non-clinical mental health coaching online for adults across northern Wisconsin. I support healthy habits, stress management, sleep routines, and accountability. Coaching doesn’t diagnose or treat anxiety, depression, trauma, or any other condition. If you’re experiencing those, please see a licensed provider. Coaching can work alongside that care.
Coaching can help you work on emotional regulation, sleep, relationships, routines, relapse prevention, and healthier ways to respond to difficult thoughts and feelings. Because mental health and addiction often overlap, I support the day-to-day steps that make progress feel possible, and I’ll refer you to a licensed provider when you need clinical care.
When substance use, behavioral addiction, or mental health struggles disrupt family life, everyone can feel the impact. I provide coaching for families who need practical guidance around conflict, codependency, communication, boundaries, and rebuilding connection after trust has been damaged.
Family coaching can help loved ones become active, informed supports in the recovery process instead of feeling stuck, reactive, or alone. Sessions may focus on healthier responses to addiction, reducing enabling patterns, recognizing relapse warning signs, and creating a home environment where accountability and compassion can exist together. My coaching brings lived experience, my CSAC training, and a judgment-free approach to this work.
How Coaching Supports Recovery, Strengthens Mental Health, & Rebuilds Families
At Progress Is Progress, coaching is forward-focused and personal. Support may include relapse prevention, healthier routines, communication skills, emotional regulation, boundaries, and family life coaching when loved ones are affected too.
Whether you need addiction recovery coaching after battling substance abuse, someone to help elevate your mental state to a better place, or coaching for how to deal with life and family, the goal is steady progress that fits your real life.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a recovery coach do?
A recovery coach provides practical, strengths-based support for people working through addiction or substance use challenges. That includes help with goal setting, daily structure, accountability, coping strategies, and building a support system. A recovery coach does not diagnose or provide clinical treatment but works alongside the client to turn intention into consistent action.
Is coaching the same as therapy?
No. Therapy is provided by a licensed mental health professional who diagnoses and treats mental health conditions. Coaching is action-oriented and focused on goals, daily choices, and forward movement. Coaching and therapy can work well together, but they serve different roles in the recovery process.
What makes my approach different from other recovery support programs?
I combine my Wisconsin CSAC training with coaching rooted in lived experience. I bring both my professional training and my personal recovery history into my work, which means you get coaching informed by real understanding, not just theory. Every coaching relationship is built around radical affirmation, practical tools, and honest connection.
Can family members work with a recovery coach too?
Yes, addiction affects more than one person, and family members often benefit from their own coaching support. A recovery coach can help loved ones understand patterns, set boundaries, improve communication, and reduce the pressure that builds around addiction in a household.
What payment options are available for recovery coaching?
Recovery coaching is typically a paid professional service, unlike 12-step sponsorship, which is usually free peer support. I describe recovery coaches as trained professionals who provide structured accountability, practical planning, and support across daily life goals. To confirm fees and payment options, contact me directly.
