SOBER COMPANIONS CHANGE & SAVE LIVES
WHAT IS A SOBER COMPANION?
A sober companion is a trained professional who helps integrate recovery into one’s lifestyle. Sober companions are valuable during many aspects of the continuum of recovery. They are vital during early recovery- the transition from residential treatment back to home life, at any point when one is not feeling secure in their ability to remain sober, when one has to engage in their life due to obligations and family and cannot spend time away in a treatment center, when an artist is out on the road (on tour, etc.), or an executive on a high-stress project needing support, when a client is, unfortunately, experiencing a relapse, and also when a person is looking to start an outpatient detox process from one or several substances.

THE SCIENCE
Substance abuse injures the circuits of the brain- particularly the executive function. Executive function controls decision-making, the ability to regulate emotions, impulse control, and many of the basic skills needed to manage simple tasks of daily life. This can take many months- or a year, or longer to heal. Partnership with a sober companion helps compensate for this loss of executive function while the client’s brain is healing. They help perform daily tasks, ensure the connection with doctors and therapy professionals is maintained, run basic errands, drive to appointments, and help with decisions and emotional support. They take the excess burden off the client while they are healing and provide safety and support for all aspects of their life.

SOBER COMPANIONS HELP YOU REMAIN ENGAGED IN YOUR LIFE
Typically when one enters residential substance abuse treatment, there is a degree of isolation- they are separated from their loved ones, friends, routine, obligations, and work. A sober companion reduces this isolation by helping support both sobriety and life engagement. Our sober companions allow someone struggling with substance abuse to still engage in their life- whether it be with their family and children, work obligations, events, or large-scale commitments that include lengthy travel. They help the person be more functional, help them be able to live up to their commitments and their work commitments. Sober companions allow greater flexibility of care so that one can continue participating in their life and handling stressors, but with connection to support and safety. They can help the client remain integrated with their children and family, make it to shoot days, tour dates, and board meetings, or can even help a CEO navigate decisions that need to be made managing their company. They can provide support with legal proceedings or any of life’s challenges that may arise. A sober companion can act like any executive assistant would trying to help the client manage the responsibilities on their plate and ease their burdens.
This increases the efficacy of recovery because unless you integrate recovery into your life and lifestyle, it's not sustainable. What we consistently see at Red Door Life, we see is that sober companions have tremendous value in helping integrate recovery into one’s lifestyle.
