About Holistic Recovery Coaching
Your Journey to Healing Starts Here
At Holistic Recovery Coaching, we know the pain of watching your young adult battle substance use. 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 while your child navigates their recovery. With a heart-centered approach, I’ll help you find the strength to support your child …
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.
