Recovery doesn’t happen all at once — and it rarely happens alone.
Having someone beside you can bring steadiness, perspective, and relief when things feel uncertain. Recovery coaching isn’t about fixing you or telling you what to do. It’s about walking with you as you regain clarity, confidence, and a sense of direction — at your own pace.
If you’re looking for grounded, personal support through substance use or recovery, you’re likely in the right place.
Recovery coaching is shaped by lived experience, steady relational support, and practical guidance — a simple, human way of helping people feel less alone…

I'm Norman
I became a recovery coach after rebuilding my own life and spending years alongside people navigating substance use. I’ve lived the uncertainty, the mixed emotions, and the slow work of finding your footing again — and I know how much it matters to have someone steady in your corner.
My work is simple at its core: real conversations, real connection, and support that meets you where you are. I’m not here to diagnose or direct your life, but to help you make sense of what’s happening and find the next right step.
If we work together, you’ll get someone who shows up fully — present, human, and invested in helping you move toward the life you want next.
Getting started is simple
A free, unhurried conversation helps us both understand what’s happening right now and what kind of support might feel most helpful. It’s a chance to talk things through, ask questions, and get a sense of how I work — without pressure or obligation.
If it feels like a good fit, we can look at different ways we might work together — from a single focused conversation to ongoing weekly or more intensive support.
When you’re ready, you can explore the coaching services I offer and see what feels right for where you are now.

I reached out to Norman about six months ago, and we’ve been working together ever since. He’s been an absolutely phenomenal part of my recovery journey — supportive, understanding, and incredibly easy to talk to. Our conversations never feel forced; he’s a great listener and has become a true friend along the way. I’m very grateful for the guidance and perspective he’s brought into my life. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for real, compassionate support in their recovery.

Coaching Options
A focused, one-to-one conversation when you need clarity, grounding, or a thoughtful next step.
There’s no commitment required — just a steady, confidential space to talk things through and leave with a clearer sense of what matters next.
Single Sessions
For those who want continuity, accountability, and steady support over time.
Ongoing work allows us to build rhythm and trust, stay connected between conversations, and respond to real life as it unfolds — not just in isolated moments.
This option is often helpful when things feel complex, uncertain, or when you don’t want to navigate recovery alone.
Monthly Support
For individuals or families who need a higher level of continuity, presence, and responsiveness.
This option offers more frequent connection, flexible support, and guidance that extends beyond scheduled conversations — grounded in trust, clear boundaries, and real-world context.
Concierge support is often helpful during periods of transition, crisis, or when steady, reliable presence makes a meaningful difference.
