Meet Our Founder
Fueled by personal experience and a passion for helping others, Dyess Addiction Consulting LLC was founded with a simple idea: to provide understanding and effective addiction coaching. Our approach is rooted in empathy and personalized care, reflecting our commitment to guiding you towards lasting recovery.
What Inspired You to Start Dyess Addiction Consulting?
I spent a lot of years struggling with addiction myself. I reached a point of thinking that was the only way for me to live. People tried to help me but I didn't want to listen if they hadn't been through what I had been through. Finally someone came along who had been there and reached out their hand to help. I took that hand and began my journey in recovery.
Can You Share a Story About a Client You Helped That You're Particularly Proud Of?
I've had many clients over the years but I think the one who stands out the most is a mother I was blessed to help. She had lost her children and had her rights terminated which is exactly what happened to me. Through a lot of ups and downs we were able to help her get to a place in recovery that she was able to go to court and fight for her children. She won. They are now happy, together, and even better.... She's still sober.
What's the Most Important Thing You Want Potential Clients to Know About Your Approach to Addiction Coaching?
We take a meet you where you're at approach. We understand that not everyone starts out in recovery at the same place. We use you as a resource and with that information help build a recovery plan that works for you.
What Personal Experiences Shaped Your Understanding of Addiction and Recovery?
I originally got sober in a 12 step program. I love that program and still use it to this day. However what I have learned through the years is that not everyone gets and stays sober through the same path way and that having multiple pathways available saves lives. My understanding of addiction came mostly through experience but also with working with others. My understanding of recovery is still ongoing. So much changes and so many new and amazing things emerge constantly. I love the fact that I can continue to learn something new every day.
