Connections in Recovery Europe serves as a vital link between the United States and Europe for those seeking addiction recovery services abroad. Whether you’re a student, expatriate, performing artist, or professional relocating overseas, we offer personalized support through our addiction recovery services in Europe. Our mission is to make transitioning into treatment or early sobriety smooth, manageable, and sustainable.
Sober Coaching in Europe
Sober coaching offers one-on-one guidance and accountability for those in active addiction or early recovery. This support is tailored to meet the needs of expats, students abroad, or anyone adjusting to life in a new environment while prioritizing sobriety. Our recovery coaches are trained to help clients implement positive daily routines, manage cravings, and build emotional resilience. Whether you’re in Paris, Berlin, or Barcelona, our recovery coaching in Europe helps clients reframe their lives with purpose and clarity.
Sober Companions for 24/7 Support
For those needing more intensive support, sober companions provide structure, supervision, and daily encouragement during the crucial early days of recovery. A sober companion may live with the client temporarily to help stabilize their environment and accompany them to 12-step meetings such as AA, NA, or CA. From preparing the home for sober living to supporting reentry into family or professional life, our 24/7 recovery companion services are available across Europe.
Sober Escort Services for Safe Travel
Traveling alone during early recovery or while preparing for treatment can be overwhelming. Our sober escort services ensure clients are safely accompanied from one location to another—whether it’s transferring from detox to rehab, traveling to a treatment center abroad, or attending important legal or medical appointments. For those who cannot trust themselves to travel alone, our trained sober escorts provide reliable, non-judgmental support every step of the way.
Customized Support for Expats, Students, and Performing Artists
CiREU specializes in addiction recovery for expatriates and sober coaching for students abroad. We also support performing artists on tour who may need a discreet sober companion or coach during demanding travel schedules. Our team understands the unique pressures faced by individuals living or working internationally and provides recovery support services that are flexible, culturally sensitive, and tailored to specific needs.
Mental Health Support for Americans in Europe
Our recovery companions and sober coaches not only assist with addiction issues but also provide broader mental health support for Americans living in Europe. Whether facing anxiety, depression, burnout, or co-occurring disorders, our compassionate professionals help clients navigate local resources and reintegrate into life with wellness as the focus. We assist with establishing routines, managing stress, setting goals, and connecting clients to ongoing care within their country of residence.
