Shared Recovery
Over the years, I’ve conducted hundreds of group addiction recovery sessions, primarily through SMART Recovery UK national meetings, sometimes hosting up to 100 participants.
EnquireSomething New
I’m now offering facilitated private, closed group recovery sessions for a smaller group size, ideally between 6 and 8 participants. These sessions offer an extra layer of confidentiality compared to traditional open groups.
In a closed group, the same participants attend each week, fostering a sense of trust and camaraderie. You can be assured that the experiences and challenges you share will remain within the confines of the group.


Professional Facilitation
I facilitate these sessions with a professional approach that balances structure with flexibility. Each session has a clear agenda, designed to explore relevant topics, introduce new recovery tools, and provide ample time for open discussion.
This structure ensures we cover valuable ground while allowing the group to explore individual needs and experiences. My role is to guide the conversation, ensure everyone has a voice, and foster a safe space for both practical and emotional support.
Why Groups Work
Closed group sessions provide a supportive and confidential environment where participants can share their experiences with an added layer of privacy.
A closed group with the same participants each week creates a secure environment where you can share openly, knowing your experiences stay within the group.
As the same people attend each session, genuine bonds form. This reduces isolation and creates a supportive community who truly understand your journey.
From cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness practices to lifestyle changes, the group explores a variety of evidence-based tools together.
As trust builds within the group, accountability naturally increases and motivation to stay on your recovery journey flourishes.
Tailored to You
As a Professional Addiction Recovery Coach and specialist in Addiction Recovery Therapy, I am dedicated to providing effective and confidential services. Whether you are looking for addiction recovery coaching, counselling, or secular recovery support, my approach is tailored to your unique journey.
Each session is designed to equip you with practical tools and strategies for long-term recovery, while offering personalised support and professional insights.
These closed group sessions are affordable, making them accessible to a wider range of individuals. The programme lasts for six weekly sessions, providing a focused and supportive environment to develop the skills and strategies you need.
These group sessions can complement other recovery efforts, including working with a recovery coach like me. The group provides peer support while 1:1 coaching allows you to develop a personalised recovery plan with ongoing guidance and accountability.


If you are interested in joining a small, private, closed group session (limited to 6–8 participants) or want more information about my services, including addiction recovery coaching and counselling, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. Together, we can work towards a healthier future on your recovery journey.
