Ethical Considerations for Recovery Coaches

Few professions draw more on one’s internal ethical resources than that of a recovery coach.

Our care for our clients often feels like it competes with the care they are given elsewhere. Knowing intuitively what the next right step is can call on our deepest inner wisdoms.

Modelling what we coach can be a challenge, but it’s so important for the coach/coachee relationship.

In this course, we will explore some of the more common challenges we may face.

Most of us have common sense ethical understanding, but what about when our coaching craft draws us into a grey area. What critical aspects is it most important that we consider?

In this course, we will examine several scenarios designed to cultivate that inner wisdom.

Some of the things we will learn, include:

  • Understand what ethics are and why ethics are so important when performing Recovery Coach Services

  • Learn how to stay in your lane as a recovery coach

  • Understand the decision making process

  • Develop guidelines for making ethical decisions

  • Apply the new learning to your every day work as a recovery coach

CEUs

Successful participants of this course will be awarded 16 CEUs by CCAR and 20 CEUs by CACCF. Those credits go toward the RCP designation or the CCRC continuing education requirements.

Comments on Still Here Ethical Considerations

The Ethical Considerations course was an excellent addition to my training as a Recovery Coach. Ethics is a complex and multilayered topic which informed everything we do as RCs. The course curriculum was thorough and extremely relevant, and taught with the same heart-centred and professional approach I now know to be characteristic of everything at Still Here. Thank you!
