Tanell Dillard

As Executive Director, my mission is built on a simple yet powerful principle: meeting individuals and families where they are to help them find hope, healing, and their way forward. With over 16 years of experience across education and mental health, I have seen firsthand how life’s challenges, trauma, and systemic hurdles can make individuals feel stuck or overwhelmed.

​

At Piedmont United, we believe that sustainable progress requires more than good intentions—it demands structure, compassionate care, and evidence-based support. As a Certified Trauma Professional, Licensed School Counselor, and Qualified Mental Health Professional (QMHP), I lead our team in providing high-quality, trauma-informed behavioral health and crisis stabilization services throughout Southwest Virginia.

​

To empower those we serve, we utilize an integrative approach that combines person-centered coaching and mindfulness with proven clinical practices. This framework equips individuals with long-term skills for resilience, personal accountability, and an improved quality of life.

​

You do not have to navigate life’s path alone. Whether you are seeking stability, healing, or personal growth, our dedicated team at Piedmont United is here to walk alongside you every step of the way.
