Let me start by congratulating you on your decision to seek help in this area of your life- it takes quite a bit of courage to get to this point. You and I will get on a call and discuss the current challenges that you are dealing with in your life related to pornography and sex. It is an opportunity to find out if we are a good fit for working together. If it is, a recovery strategy will be outlined for you based on where you are in your current situation. We will schedule a regular meeting time and begin with your first recovery exercise or assignment

The initial consultation is free

It’s quite normal to feel reserved about disclosing an area of your life which you may have never shared with anyone. Part of the requirements of being a recovery coach is being non-judgmental. At Elevated Recovery, you will always be in a safe and private environment where you can open up about your challenges-perhaps for the first time ever. It takes time to build a relationship, but you will find that your level of comfort and trust will keep growing as time passes. There is no need to feel shame when you are in a safe, supportive environment.

Cancellations within 24 hours are allowed. I understand that emergencies come up. Due to the wait list, any cancellations or no shows for a scheduled call second time cannot be rescheduled.

A majority of my coaching sessions are held over the phone or on Skype, so scheduling a rarely an issue. Elevated Recovery is known for its flexible accountability hours.That means whether you are in New York, Melbourne, Cape Town or Tokyo, you can rest assured that we will be available to have your session.

Recovery Coaching is strictly confidential. I take your privacy and boundaries very seriously. Regardless of your status, reputation or fame, you will always have your sessions in an atmosphere of trust. Some high-profile individuals prefer to avoid technology while working on themselves. If you prefer more discreet sessions, I offer “house calls” and multi-day, in-person sessions on a limited basis. Every client deserves to experience recovery with the maximum amount of safety and trust.

The work that we will be doing together is that of a professional consulting/coaching/client relationship which differs from psychotherapy services.

Consulting/Coaching often deals with (but is not limited to):

• A person’s future and often utilizes tools such as accountability, goal setting, executing a vision, personal development, educational goals, collaborative action steps, outcome goals, and motivational work.Recovery coaching is very proactive, being solution and action oriented.

Psychotherapy often deals with (but is not limited to):

• An individual’s current psychological stress that may stem from difficult early years experience, trauma and/or attachment disorders and/or addiction issues. Therapy often involves examining thought processes and interpersonal relationships and other psychological challenges that may negatively interfere with a person’s day-to-day psychological functioning.

To illustrate, if a client has persistent negative self-belief, a therapist would focus on finding out the root cause and origin of the negative self-belief using a medical method they are trained in. A recovery coach would treat the negative self-belief as an obstacle in the way of the primary goal (recovery from porn addiction), and work with the client to develop a method of overcoming the negative belief.

A therapist focuses on healing and understanding. A recovery coach focuses on evolving and reaching your potential.
