It is my mission as a Recovery Coach to support sustainable and positive changes by helping anyone to avoid relapse and build community support for recovery by working on life goals important to the client.
Shira Goldberg graduated from Kaplan University in 2011 with a degree in psychology, with an emphasis in Applied Behavioral Analysis. Prior to that, she attended University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee where she was in the pre-medicine program. She was awarded the Ronald McNair Scholarship, a Postbaccalaureate Achievement Program, and a fellowship at the Medical College of Wisconsin where she did cancer research. She graduated Summa Cum Laude and is in Psi Chi, Psychology’s International Honor Society.
After surviving her own battle with alcohol, she had an awakening and began focusing her efforts and dedication on the recovery community and became a recovery coach.
Her motivation is to encourage and celebrate recovery by promoting its message of hope. She is now the founder of LivingSoberLifeCoaching.com, an online effort that reduces the marginalization and stigma that surrounds addiction and to help those that have a need find not only resources, but community.
“By supporting and encouraging clients to achieve their life goals, within the context of long-term recovery, I get to see not only collectively, but individually, the benefits of recovery and their new lease on life.
I cannot imagine doing anything more important than that.”
Shira Goldberg, founder of www.livingsoberlifecoaching.com and a Recovery Coach in private practice.

Relapse. Always or Never? Shira Goldberg
Recovery Coach Shira- Thoughts on Relapse I think that recovery is not only a process, but unlike popular belief, definitely not a linear one. Statistically speaking, relapse, or at least a 'lapse,' (and yes I do believe there is a difference) is almost a guarantee for about 80% of the population. I don't think that it is is a failure on the part of the person, but a time to allow oneself to reassess, to contemplate and to realize all of the progress one has been able to achieve.

From Mugshots to Motivational Spreaker
I didn’t start drinking until I was separated from my husband. I got the house, but selling it was the only way I could survive, so that is what I had to do. I had the summer to get the house ready and for the first time in my life, I was alone. I was suffering from depression, losing my world as I knew it, my family, my security, my collective identity. I just knew that I wasn’t equipped to make it in the world on my own. Marrying young, way to young, I never was able to define myself as an individual. I was a small part of a collective, part and parcel of a pair.
