OMG, she gets names. She gets time frames. She is astoundingly accurate with the future predictions. Unbelievable. Also, if I give her a first name, she tunes right in on that person without any other information and no annoying questions or guessing. She just tunes in. I am speechless.
Names!
My favorite reader. Each minute is filled with lots of useful, insightful information. Tunes in quickly. She’s predictive and incredibly helpful in following up with things I can do to allow the miracles to unfold. Clearly cares about her clients. Simply the Best!!~ Id 3686523
Simply the Best
ALL of Dyan’s predictions for the future came true. ALL! This was my 2nd reading with her. There are no generalities here. She speaks in specifics. She is astounding in her psychic abilities.  ~S. A.
Predictions Came True
I cannot recommend this astonishing woman enough! She is so intensely psychic—she said, so I see you meeting this new guy in “Atlanta”–doh! Thats where I live! She was incredibly accurate throughout our entire conversation. What a privilege to speak with an exceptional person like Dyan! ~ Id 4016448, October 02, 2018
Astonishing
Just wanted to update on my reading with Dyan. Literally 2 days after my reading with her, a very specific opportunity she said was on it’s way came “out of nowhere.” I am amazed. Her gift is absolutely real and genuine.
A Real and Genuine Gift
A reading with Dyan Garris is a guaranteed life-changer. Even aside from her awesome gift and extraordinary kindness, she instantly understands EVERYTHING and, by understanding, she shows the way forward to the right path.~ Id 3878544
Life Changing
Absolutely loved her. I felt her sincerity in every word she spoke to me. She immediately mentioned something about this man drinking which I think makes a lot of sense. She described him so clearly, his good time nature covering over his deeper self which he will not let many access. I trust her insights and will take her advice in giving him the time he needs to sort himself out. She feels he is worth waiting for. She is a deep and extremely gifted intuitive.~ Id 3622643
Extremely Gifted
I love this woman. Dyan was very accurate in her reading with me there was definitely no generalizations, everything was specific. She read me well and the other people involved. I look forward to her prediction coming through hopefully sooner than later. A true psychic!~ Id 3576161
A True Psychic

Powerful Ability
I am not easily impressed but Diane Garris is truly a gifted Akashic record reader and psychic. She was able to untangle my thoughts and help me clarify the choices that I had available to me. She was even able to connect patterns that were interfering with my situation that were past life issues. She is kind and direct and delivers! Amazed and impressed! Thank you Dyan for sharing your gifts! Five Stars!!! ~ Diana C.  
Amazed and Impressed
For those not familiar with Dyan Garris – Dyan has spent her lifetime using her special gifts to help others… ~ A. A. R.
All Questions Answered
This is a well deserved and completely unsolicited testimonial. Thank you so much for the amazing reading you gave me a few weeks ago. It really resonated with me and made perfect sense and a number of decisions have been made and things are starting to fall into place for me. I feel quite liberated and the feeling is fantastic. The first time in years I can see the path ahead much more clearly. You have a real gift and you are both lovely, kind, wise and enlightened.
Lara E.
