Meet Barry
I support Recovery Provider Leaders by co-creating practical frameworks, learning experiences, and tools that strengthen their teams and expand their impact. When leaders are supported, the people delivering treatment and recovery services along the continuum of care can show up with greater clarity, confidence, and consistency, creating a ripple effect for those they serve.
My focus is simple: support the leaders who support the people.
By partnering with Recovery Provider Leaders, we can multiply positive outcomes across entire programs and communities.Introduction to Peer Recovery Coaching

Someone in my family is in long-term recovery, and I’ve seen how close life can get to falling apart (family, work, stability). That’s why this matters to me: if my work helps recovery leaders do their work even a little better, the impact multiplies, helping more people move toward long-term recovery.
