Our Founders

At Intervention Services and Coaching, we are led by two visionary founders whose combined expertise, compassion, and dedication have revolutionized the field of addiction recovery and family healing. Together, David Lee and Josette Sheets bring decades of experience, blending traditional and innovative approaches to support individuals and families on their unique journeys to wellness.

David Lee

With over 20 years of experience in addiction recovery and mental health, David Lee is a trailblazer in the field. From his beginnings at a detox facility to founding the largest intervention company in North America, David has facilitated the recovery of over 10,000 clients and their families. As the co-founder of Heartland Recovery Center and Heartland Behavioral Health, he continues to advocate for non-traditional, personalized recovery solutions.

David’s philosophy centers on the belief that addiction is often a symptom of deeper struggles with avoidance and discomfort. His innovative approach integrates diverse modalities, including 12-step programs, trauma-informed recovery, meditation, and even plant medicine journeys. A firm believer in the uniqueness of each individual’s path, David guides clients in crafting their own Hero’s Journey to recovery.

Beyond his work with clients, David co-founded The Elephant Group, a family support system that has met weekly for over ten years, helping families navigate the complexities of recovery. As a keynote speaker and advisor to the Psychedelics in Recovery nonprofit, David’s insights continue to inspire change in how we understand addiction and healing.

Josette Sheets

A dedicated healer with over 26 years in the healing arts, Josette Sheets brings a holistic perspective to addiction recovery and family care. Her career began with the creation of Intouch Therapies and Retreat, the first wellness center in her town, offering a wide array of therapeutic modalities from yoga to acupuncture. Josette specializes in trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, and grief, helping clients uncover their potential for healing and growth.

Josette’s compassionate approach extends to her role as a certified death midwife and grief support specialist, where she has supported countless families through loss. Her expertise also includes couples’ communication coaching and shamanistic healing, integrating spiritual experiences into recovery.

As Co-owner and Director of Family Care at Intervention Services and Coaching, Josette empowers families to find their strength and rebuild relationships. With personal experience in navigating the effects of addiction and mental illness, Josette’s empathetic guidance helps others feel truly understood and supported.

A Shared Mission

Together, David and Josette have built a company rooted in the belief that recovery is as unique as the individual. Their collaborative leadership ensures that every client and family receives care tailored to their specific needs. With humor, compassion, and a steadfast dedication to healing, they remind us all that recovery isn’t just about overcoming struggles—it’s about discovering the possibilities of a life well-lived.
