Offcanvas Section

You can publish whatever you want in the Offcanvas Section. It can be any module or particle.

By default, the available module positions are offcanvas-a and offcanvas-b but you can add as many module positions as you want from the Layout Manager.

You can also add the hidden-phone module class suffix to your modules so they do not appear in the Offcanvas Section when the site is loaded on a mobile device.

Information and referral links related to psychiatric advance directives, disability rights, LGBTQ+ rights, civil rights, and access to legal help in Colorado.

Education, not legal advice: Spring Aspen Recovery can help clients understand available resources and prepare questions, but does not provide legal advice, interpret the law for a client, or replace an attorney.

Colorado Psychiatric Advance Directives

A Colorado Psychiatric Advance Directive (PAD) is a legal document that allows a person to record instructions about future psychiatric treatment and, if desired, appoint an agent. Sarah Humble has subject-matter expertise in Colorado PADs and has presented PAD education. Her role is educational and supportive; legal and clinical questions should be directed to a qualified attorney or healthcare professional.

Credential standards and coaching scope

Sarah’s credentials are coaching and peer-support qualifications. They do not represent a Colorado license to diagnose or provide psychotherapy, medical care, detoxification, or legal advice. When a client needs clinical, emergency, or legal services, coaching should support an appropriate referral.

  • Martha Beck Wayfinder Life Coach Training — The program states that certified Wayfinder coaches receive ethics and professional-responsibility education and are expected to follow the ICF Code of Ethics. Martha Beck Inc. also states that it does not license, regulate, or oversee individual Wayfinder coaches.
  • International Coaching Federation Code of Ethics — Covers clear coaching agreements, confidentiality and its legal limits, secure records, conflicts of interest, nondiscrimination, professional boundaries, accurate credential claims, and working within one’s competence.
  • International Master Addictions Coach (IMAC) — The Addictions Academy describes IMAC as an advanced coaching certification with ethics training. Its materials distinguish coaching from therapy and emphasize staying within coaching scope.
