Wayfinder Recovery Coaching

About Wayfinder Recovery Coaching

Wayfinder Recovery Coaching works with people and families dealing with substance use and the everyday struggles that can make change hard. Founder Katherine "Kathy" Reynolds is a CASAC-2, CRPA, and CARC, and she is in long-term recovery herself. She has a bachelor's degree in Addiction Studies, is a PESI Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, and is working on her Master of Social Work at the University at Buffalo. Her coaching is trauma-informed, and clients decide the direction.

Who It's For

Clients don't need to be sober, or even sure of their goals, to get started. Some want to quit. Others want to cut back, try moderation, reduce harm, or get back on track after a return to use. Some want support outside of traditional recovery programs. People taking medication for addiction are welcome.

Individual and Family Coaching

In individual coaching, Kathy helps clients turn goals into real steps. That can include building routines, staying motivated, practicing coping skills, finding treatment, and connecting with community support. She also coaches family members using CRAFT and Invitation to Change. These approaches teach loved ones how to talk with the person they're worried about, set boundaries they can stick to, and take care of themselves while encouraging change.

Locations and Cost

Kathy meets with clients in person in Putnam, Westchester, and Dutchess Counties in New York and Fairfield County in Connecticut. Virtual sessions are also available. Services are private pay, with sliding-scale fees, and plans can be adjusted to fit each person. A free 20-minute consultation is available by phone or text.
