Recovery Coaching

What does recovery coaching really mean?

At Bridges, we believe that people can live their best life when they set clear and achievable goals, that are meaningful to them.

?Bridges Recovery Coaches assist to build a participant’s capacity and skills, encouraging independence and goal achievement.

?We understand that everyone’s path is different. We will walk alongside you on your journey and assist you to achieve your goals.

The Bridges approach to recovery coaching:

Personal medicine is one of our unique approaches - tapping into what you already do to look after your health & wellbeing.  Personal medicine comes from within. It’s not medication that you take. This means that there are endless options and pathways forward: they’re not prescribed by others, they are personal to you. Bridges doesn’t take your opportunity for growth lightly. Your starting point will depend on what you want to achieve. We’re ready when you are.

?

Our staff have professional qualifications in mental health, wellness coaching, disability, and community services as well as training in recovery-oriented practice.

?Bridges is culturally sensitive and has Indigenous cultural support workers available.
