How do you become a sober coach?

Strong communication skills, empathy, and knowledge of recovery strategies are essential, and some coaches pursue certifications in addiction counseling or related fields to enhance credibility.

What is the difference between Sober Coaching vs Sober Companion?

AspectSober CoachingSober Companion
CredentialsCertifications in addiction recovery, coaching credentialsSimilar certifications, often with additional personal experience
Work EnvironmentGuides clients through recovery, goal setting, and lifestyle changesProvides 24/7 support, accompanies clients in daily activities
Employer & Industry UsageRecovery programs, private coaching, wellness industryHigh-end recovery residences, private clients

While both roles support individuals in sobriety, sober coaching focuses on guiding clients through recovery goals and lifestyle changes, often in scheduled sessions. Sober companions provide around-the-clock support, accompanying clients in daily activities to ensure safety and accountability. The choice depends on the level of support needed and the client's recovery plan.

Job description

Sober Companion
CST Care Team a branch of Caring & Secure Transport (CST)

Classification: 1099 Independent Contractor

Hours: Flexible scheduling based on client needs. Assignments can range from a single transport lasting an hour or two, to extended day sessions of 8-12 hours, to overnight stays with a client. Weekly caseload typically runs 24-48 hours, with a minimum of 24 hours/week. Companions with capacity and availability for overnight work may take on additional hours.

About the Role

CST is seeking Sober Companions to provide one-on-one support to clients working to maintain sobriety across all stages of recovery, including clients stepping down from 24/7 residential care, those currently in IOP or PHP, clients in sober living, and clients in their own homes. The companion acts as the on-the-ground support person between clinical care and daily life, helping clients build structure, attend required meetings and appointments, and develop sustainable recovery habits.

Some clients also have co-occurring needs such as developmental disabilities, autism, or traumatic brain injury. Experience in those areas is a strong plus but not a substitute for recovery-space experience, which is the core requirement for this role.

Responsibilities

  • Provide direct one-on-one support during scheduled shifts, tailored to each client's recovery plan
  • Transport clients to AA/NA meetings, group sessions, medical appointments, and errands (groceries, day program, etc.)
  • Assist with medication compliance and monitoring — companions do not administer medication
  • Assess each client's situation and help develop a week-by-week plan to support their recovery goals
  • Support clients in building healthy daily routines: eating habits, financial habits, organization, and cleanliness
  • For established long-term clients, carry out the existing care plan and report on progress
  • Complete accurate end-of-shift documentation in compliance with HIPAA
  • Relay relevant information between the client and CST's clinical team, functioning as the primary point of contact on the ground
  • Recognize and respond to signs of relapse risk or crisis using appropriate intervention techniques

Requirements

  • Personal sobriety required. If the candidate has their own history of substance use recovery, a minimum of 5 years of continuous sobriety is required. CST maintains a zero-tolerance policy for relapse while employed in this role
  • Clean background check required
  • Clean driving record required
  • Experience working in the recovery/addiction space (required) — e.g., sober companion, recovery coach, mental health technician, or similar
  • Additional experience in ABA therapy, special education, or working with developmental disabilities is a plus, but not a substitute for recovery experience
  • Working knowledge of crisis intervention and de-escalation techniques
  • Strong communication skills and comfort working as a liaison between clinical staff and clients
  • Reliable transportation and a valid driver's license (role includes regular client transport)
  • Willingness and availability to work overnight shifts as needed
  • Ability to maintain HIPAA-compliant documentation
  • Ability to independently assess client needs and adapt support week to week


Company Description

CST Care Team provides one on one companion support services for individuals in early recovery across South Florida. Our caregivers work directly with sober clients, providing daily supervision and consistent, dependable presence during a critical stage of their recovery journey. This isn’t passive sitting, it’s active engagement: helping clients stay accountable, supporting daily routines, and being a steady presence during a time when structure and trust matter most.
