Dr. Cali Estes, The Addictions Coach and Founder of The Addictions Academy, is excited to welcome Mike Diamond, a renowned addiction recovery expert, to their expanding team of highly skilled addiction and recovery professionals. The Addictions Academy continues to attract top talent in the addiction recovery space to meet the growing demand for their world-class support services and training programs.
Mike Diamond brings a wealth of experience and expertise to The Addictions Academy. He is a Nationally Certified Interventionist Professional (NCIP), a National Certified Case Manager (NCCM), and a Nationally Certified Recovery Coach (NCRC), having earned these certifications through The Addictions Academy and Dr. Cali Estes. Mike has appeared on numerous television shows, including the Emmy-winning series “Intervention” and the hit TV shows “NY Ink,” “Miami Ink,” and “Bondi Ink.” He is also a sought-after keynote speaker and best-selling author.
Originally from Perth, Western Australia, Mike faced challenges early in life, including undiagnosed dyslexia and substance abuse issues that began at age 12. Despite being expelled from high school at 16, Mike persevered and moved to Sydney to pursue his passion for acting. A chance encounter with a customer at a clothing store where he worked to pay for acting classes changed his life forever when he was given a Green Card Lottery ticket.
Mike moved to America in 1997 and quickly landed several television roles. However, behind the scenes, he struggled with cocaine and alcohol addiction. At the height of his career, while shooting a TV show for VH1, Mike realized that he needed to turn his life around or risk losing everything, including his life. On April 16, 2006, Mike Diamond made the decision to get sober.
Since then, Mike has dedicated his life to helping thousands of individuals and their families navigate the challenges of addiction. He is always available to his clients and friends, providing support and guidance as they face life’s ups and downs.
Dr. Cali Estes expressed her enthusiasm for Mike joining the team, stating, “We are thrilled to have Mike Diamond join our exceptional team at The Addictions Academy. His personal experience, combined with his expertise and passion for helping others, makes him an invaluable asset to our organization. We know that his contributions will help us continue to provide the highest level of support and services to those in need.”
