Recovery Is Not Linear

Addiction and recovery do not follow a straight line.

Progress can include:

Motivation fluctuates. Insight deepens over time. Setbacks do not erase progress—they inform it.

ClearStep was designed with this reality in mind. Rather than pushing constant forward motion, ClearStep supports awareness, grounding, and re-engagement—especially during moments when recovery feels uneven or fragile.

The Problem (Without Alarmism)

Recovery does not happen only in the clinic.

Most of the work happens:

Traditional treatment models do not consistently support patients during these in-between spaces. Engagement drops. Momentum fades. Recovery becomes harder than it needs to be.

ClearStep was designed to live in that space.

What ClearStep Is

ClearStep is a non-clinical recovery engagement platform designed to:

ClearStep is not therapy, not a medical device, and not a replacement for care. It is a companion—quiet, optional, and supportive.

How ClearStep Fits Into Care

ClearStep is designed to sit between visits, not inside them.

It works alongside:

ClearStep does not diagnose, prescribe, or direct treatment. It supports engagement, insight, and continuity.

Designed by a Clinician

ClearStep was designed by a physician board-certified in Addiction Medicine and Family Medicine, grounded in real-world outpatient, OTP and correctional practice.

The platform reflects:

Technology follows care—not the other way around.
