The week begins when a companion from Active Recovery Companions (ARC) arrives at the client’s residence or meets them at a private residence. The companion reviews the client’s post-treatment plan, checks in with the family or household team, and ensures that confidentiality protocols are in place.
The companion and case management team identifies triggers, confirms boundaries, liaises with any medical or therapeutic professionals, and helps design a personalized daily routine that aligns with the client’s lifestyle and recovery goals.
On Tuesday, the companion leads a structured morning check-in: meditation, physical activity, healthy nutrition and a discussion of emotional goals for the day.
Later, the companion may accompany the client to appointments, meetings or travel. Given the mobility needs of UHNW families, travel readiness becomes critical. The companion ensures the client remains aligned with their recovery commitments while navigating business schedules, flights or event logistics. ARC emphasises a holistic approach to support.

Mid-week focuses on integrating recovery into real life. The companion supports the client in engaging with healthy routines, social activities that align with their wellbeing, and avoiding high-risk environments.
They might coordinate a session with a coach or mentor, manage communication with the household staff or family office, and ensure the client remains connected to their treatment plan. This is where accountability matters most.
Thursday often becomes a day for strategic planning. The companion reviews any upcoming high-risk events (travel, public appearances, family gatherings) and works with the client and family team to develop coping strategies.
They may lead a family communication session (discreetly) to align expectations, restore trust and protect the client’s privacy while maintaining structure. For UHNW families, confidentiality remains central. ARC emphasises privacy as a core value. Active Recovery Companions+1
By Friday, the companion documents and reports progress to treatment team the week’s progress: routines followed, triggers avoided, mobility handled, emotional health check-in performed.
The companion refines the strategy for next week, adjusts the plan as needed with input from therapists or psychiatrists, and ensures all communication remains secure. Legacy preservation and consistent progress go hand in hand.
Weekend days often bring higher risk due to travel or social exposure. The companion may accompany the client on a business trip, stay on-site at a private residence or discreetly ensure the client is anchored in recovery-friendly routines.
This assistance can include sober transport, safe planning for events, and real-time support during unstructured time. ARC offers these services to maintain continuity of care. Active Recovery Companions
Sunday becomes the day of reflection and family connection. The companion guides the client through a review of the week, reinforces wins, addresses challenges and helps set intentions for the coming week.
They might facilitate a safe conversation with family members, focusing on healing, transparency and legacy. They also prepare travel logistics, household transitions or next-week scheduling to keep momentum.
For UHNW families, recovery support must align with high stakes: privacy, reputation, continuity and excellence. Standard programs often lack the mobility, discretion and integration that elite clients need.
ARC’s model ensures the companion adapts to the client’s world—not the other way around. With one-on-one support, structure and real-world accountability, clients build sustainable habits and families protect what matters most.
Q: How does a private recovery companion differ from a traditional therapist or coach?
A: A companion provides real-time presence, mobility and daily accountability in everyday settings—therapy and coaching often happen in offices or through sessions.
Q: Do companions work internationally and in travel settings?
A: Yes. The best discreet services include travel-ready companions who can maintain structure and support even on business trips or during transitions.
If your family requires discreet, professional, structured support for recovery, a private companion could be the solution.
