Frequently Asked Questions & Recovery Resources
Your Questions, Answered
Whether you’re seeking coaching, exploring certification, or looking for tools—you’ll find clear answers and helpful next steps here.
General Questions
❓What is person-centered recovery coaching?
Person-centered recovery coaching is tailored to your unique experiences, values, and goals. It’s non-clinical support rooted in respect, compassion, and lived experience — with a focus on harm reduction, multiple pathways, and empowering you to define recovery for yourself.
❓I’m not sure which service I need — can you help?
Yes! You can book a free intro call to talk through your needs and learn which service is the best fit for you or your family.
❓Do you offer virtual coaching?
Absolutely. All coaching and mentorship sessions are currently offered via secure virtual platforms to make support as accessible as possible.
Coaching & Mentorship
❓What’s the difference between recovery coaching and therapy?
Recovery coaching is forward-focused and action-oriented. While therapy often explores clinical diagnoses or past trauma, coaching supports present goals, life skills, motivation, and harm reduction. We often work alongside therapists as part of a broader support network.
❓Do you offer mentorship for recovery coaches?
Yes! We offer both 1:1 mentorship and structured programs for recovery coaches and peer professionals. Visit our Recovery Coach Mentorship page to learn more and apply.
❓Can you help me start a private coaching practice?
Definitely. We specialize in mentorship for coaches building or expanding their private practice. Explore our VIP Launch Program or book a discovery call to get started.
Certification & Training
❓Do you offer CARC or CRPA certification training?
Amanda is a FOR-NY best practice trainer and NYCB approved trainer.

Pricing & Scholarships
❓Do you offer sliding scale or scholarships?
Yes! We believe recovery support should be accessible. Several services offer sliding scale options, and our donation page helps fund scholarship-based sessions.
❓Are payment plans available?
Yes — especially for multi-session packages and mentorship programs. You'll see payment plan options listed in the service PDFs or we can discuss them during your intro call.
