Description

You are a committed coach with a specialization in recovery. You may also be a peer recovery professional committed to a support service practice. “Meeting people where they’re at,” is a foundational principle for you. What could possibly go wrong? How can you protect yourself from violating professional boundaries? What is the value of “letting go of outcomes”? In this interactive workshop, we will explore principles of non-clinical practice; examine the intersection of coaching and recovery; and ask what is the value of “letting go of outcomes”? By the end of the workshop, participants will be able to delineate and describe the elements of non-clinical practice; evaluate personal attitudes and values towards dispassionate service; and develop personal strategies for balancing passionate motivation with dispassionate service.
