Private Sober Companion & Recovery Support

Compassionate, trauma-informed support for women & families navigating addiction recovery, treatment transitions, relapse prevention & early sobriety

A highly attuned recovery specialist who can stabilise emotionally complex situations without judgement, panic, and shame.

With a PhD in Sociology and years of frontline experience supporting women with multiple and complex needs, I bring both critical insight and compassionate, human-centred support to the recovery process.

Alongside my direct support work, I have also trained and supported social workers and advised senior leaders on vulnerability, trauma, and complex social and emotional challenges faced by young women.

Services

  • I provide discreet, trauma-informed sober companion support for women navigating addiction, recovery, relapse, and treatment transitions.

    My work includes accompanying clients during domestic and international travel to and from treatment centres, providing grounded emotional support during admissions, transitions home, and post-treatment private sober companion support.

    I understand that for many women, addiction does not exist in isolation. Substance use often coexists with trauma, grief, anxiety, burnout, relationship difficulties, shame, or long-standing patterns of emotional survival and self-protection.

    I recognise how vulnerable recovery and treatment transitions can feel, particularly for women who are used to coping alone, masking distress, or holding everything together externally while struggling internally. I support clients by offering calm, consistent companionship and emotionally grounded support during periods that can otherwise feel overwhelming, exposing, or destabilising.

  • When someone you love is struggling with addiction, it can be difficult to know how to help without fear, conflict, or emotional exhaustion taking over family life.

    I provide calm, trauma-informed support to families navigating addiction, relapse, treatment decisions, and emotionally complex situations. This may include helping families prepare for treatment conversations, supporting intervention processes, coordinating treatment admissions, or providing guidance during periods of crisis and uncertainty.

    My approach recognises that addiction impacts the entire family system, often creating patterns of anxiety, hypervigilance, guilt, shame, and emotional overwhelm for loved ones as well as the individual struggling.

    I work with compassion, discretion, and emotional sensitivity, helping families move toward greater clarity, stability, and support during what can often feel like an isolating and frightening time.

  • I work collaboratively with treatment centres, therapists, intervention specialists, and recovery professionals to provide discreet, emotionally grounded sober companion support for women navigating addiction, treatment transitions, and early recovery.

    My role can include accompanying clients during domestic and international travel to and from treatment centres, supporting admissions and discharge transitions, providing post-treatment sober companion support, and helping clients maintain greater emotional stability and structure during vulnerable periods of recovery.

    I understand the importance of continuity of care and work relationally alongside clinical teams, therapists, and families to support each client’s wider recovery process.
