About Holistic Recovery Coaching
Your Journey to Healing Starts Here
At Holistic Recovery Coaching, I understand the pain of watching your Loved One struggle with Addictions and Mental Health Disorders. You’re not just a bystander in their journey - you’re their lifeline, their support, and often the one who carries the heaviest burden. But who's supporting you?
I’m here to offer more than just coaching. I am your compassionate ally, guiding you through the emotional turmoil, helping you create boundaries without guilt, and empowering you to reclaim your peace, even in the midst of your loved one’s struggles. With a heart-centered approach, I’ll help you find the strength to support your loved one …
About Our Owner
My name is Laurie Santiago-Hooper and I founded Holistic Recovery Coaching in WNY with the purpose and mission to guide Families impacted by their loved one’s substance use from confusion, overwhelm, and hopelessness to empowerment, resilience and effectiveness by:
- Embracing a new perspective on how to influence a loved one’s journey to recovery.
- Learning evidence-based skills and tools to become effective in communication.
- Using a calm and composed demeanor - rather than the usual blow-ups and arguments.
- Building engagement and collaboration - rather than detaching and disengaging.
Our Services
Addiction Recovery Coaching
Addiction Recovery Coaching
Addiction doesn’t just affect the individual - it reaches deep into the family unit, straining relationships, trust, and emotional well-being. As a care-giver, you may feel responsible, overwhelmed, or unsure of where to turn. At Holistic Recovery Coaching, we offer a safe space for you to process your emotions, set healthy boundaries, and support your loved one.
Grief & Loss Support
Addiction Recovery Coaching
Grief can feel overwhelming - like a heavy weight you can’t put down. You may feel trapped in pain, isolated in your experience, and afraid that despair will never lift. Laurie provides grief coaching for those who feel stuck in their grief, offering compassionate guidance and a safe, supportive space to process your emotions and begin releasing the burden you're carrying.
