What Is a Sober Companion?

A sober companion is a trained professional who provides one-on-one support to individuals in recovery from addiction. They offer guidance, accountability, and encouragement—especially during high-risk situations such as the period following rehab, or when navigating everyday environments that might trigger a relapse.

Depending on the client’s needs, sober companions may work with individuals for a few hours, several days, or on a longer-term basis lasting weeks or even months.


How Can a Sober Companion Help?

Sober companions can provide vital support and understanding at critical moments in recovery. They can enhance your progress and safeguard your sobriety in several ways, including:

  • Offering expert, recovery-focused companionship and guidance

  • Supporting individuals who are new to sobriety or struggling to maintain it

  • Assisting those still in active addiction who want to move toward recovery

  • Helping navigate daily life, social situations, or high-pressure environments

  • Encouraging healthy routines and participation in support groups or therapy

  • Providing 24/7 accountability, if required
