What Our Clients Say 

"I appreciate Ms. Dede, Ms. Emily, & Ms. Kim for hosting me and accepting me into their program. Every time I went the vibes were pleasant & non judgmental, & the lessons we went through were genuine, not just watch this video or read this text and respond. The conversations were in depth, & sometimes personal, but the atmosphere is so calming it helps you to ease into  comfortability with expressing your public mishaps for good natured advisories. I recommend this class for anyone who really wants to connect & learn and also change their lifestyle. Good luck to you future students and thank you again ladies. "

"I was recovering from The shock of my first DUI in April. My attorney suggested I start IOP immediately. The place in Frankfort was full till July so I discovered Altruism Counseling in Lexington. The room was full of problem addicts and alcoholics and Dede Stratton was our teacher. She was one of us and easy to trust and easy to relate to. We were able to tell her what was going on in our lives and she had answers and solutions to help us with certain situations. She knew very much about the alcoholics anonymous and narcotics anonymous programs. If I ever run into a person needing drug and alcohol assistance or training, I am going to refer them to Dede immediately. Her and my classmates have been a instrumental tool in my early recovery "

Chad Howard

"DeDe is a wonderful counselor! I never understood addiction and what it was until I attended Altruism Counseling. DeDe makes it very easy to understand and being apart of her group has being a wonderful experience in my recovery! I have attended her classes twice and both experiences have gave me the tools and knowledge to stay clean. I am still sober til this day and will always remember what she taught me to say clean. I advise anyone willing to stay sober attend her classes. Give her a chance and I promise you will understand what AA actually is."
