Peer Support Services
Our peer support program connects you with someone who's walked a similar path and found their way forward - because sometimes the most powerful support comes from someone who truly gets what you're going through.

Find Your Path Forward
When life feels overwhelming, sometimes the most powerful support comes from someone who truly understands your journey.
You're not alone. And you don't have to figure this out by yourself.
Our peer support specialists at Alliance Healthcare Services aren't just trained professionals – they're people who've walked similar paths, faced their own challenges, and found their way to recovery. Think of them as guides who know the terrain because they've traveled it themselves.
What Makes Peer Support Different?
Here's the thing about peer support: it's not therapy, and it's not counseling in the traditional sense. It's something deeper.
It's hope with a heartbeat.
When you're struggling with mental health challenges or addiction, well-meaning friends might say "I understand" – but do they really? Our peer support specialists can look you in the eye and say, "I've know where you are. And I'm here to walk alongside you."

Lived experience matters. Our specialists have their own recovery stories
No judgment zone. We get it because we've lived it

How We Support You
One-on-One Connection
Sometimes you need someone to listen without trying to "fix" you. Our specialists provide individual support that meets you exactly where you are – whether that's in our office, your home, or grabbing coffee somewhere you feel comfortable.
Group Support That Actually Helps
Not another circle of chairs where everyone shares trauma. Our groups focus on building skills, celebrating wins (no matter how small), and creating genuine connections with people who get it.
Life Skills That Stick
We help with the practical stuff that makes daily life work better:
Managing triggers and stress
Building healthy relationships
Navigating benefits and services
Goal setting that actually happens
Problem-solving real-world challenges
Community Connection
Recovery doesn't happen in isolation. We help you build a support network, connect with community resources, and find your place in the world again.
Your Recovery, Your Way
Here's what we believe: Recovery isn't one-size-fits-all.
Maybe your path includes 12-step programs. Maybe it doesn't. Maybe you need intensive support right now. Maybe you just need someone to check in once a week.
What matters is what works for you.
Our peer specialists help you:
Set goals that matter to you (not what someone else thinks you should want)
Build on your strengths (yes, you have them – even when it doesn't feel like it)
Navigate setbacks without losing hope
Celebrate progress in all its forms
Meet You Where You Are
We know that asking for help isn't easy. And we know that showing up to an appointment can feel like climbing a mountain some days.
That's why we're flexible about where and how we meet:
Our comfortable offices throughout Memphis
Your home (when that feels safer)
Community locations that work for you
Phone support when you can't make it in person
Crisis support when you need it most
No one gets turned away because they can't pay. Period. If you need support, we'll figure out how to make it work.
Ready to Take the Next Step?
You don't have to have it all figured out to reach out. You don't need to be "ready" or have the perfect words.
Just call. We'll handle the rest.
Call us at 901-369-1410
Our team is here Monday through Friday, and we have crisis support available 24/7 because recovery doesn't keep business hours.

We'll help you figure out next steps
Same-day appointments available
Questions We Hear A Lot
"What if I'm not ready for this?" There's no such thing as "ready." There's just willing to try something different. That's enough.
"Will this actually help?" We can't promise miracles. But we can promise you won't face this alone anymore. And sometimes, that makes all the difference.
"What if I've tried everything?" Maybe you've tried therapy, treatment programs, medication, support groups. But have you tried walking alongside someone who's been where you are and made it through? That's different.
"How much does this cost?" Don't let money be the reason you don't get help. We accept most insurance, including TennCare. And if you don't have insurance, we have programs to help.
