Couples work is challenging and emotionally provocative. Feelings of frustration, pain, anger and discouragement alternating with relief, hopefulness, and excitement are common among couples who are trying to resolve their marital discord. Although each couple is unique the following principles hold true in treatment of the majority of partners. 1) A good marriage requires both spouses to psychologically separate from their family of origin and shift their primary love, loyalty to each other. An individual cannot fully participate in an interdepended relationship without being first an independent and autonomous person.

Hi there! I see you. Doing the best you can, but still feeling like you are falling short. Struggling with the same worries, and the same hard feelings about yourself year after year. Thinking to yourself "shouldn't I have it figured out by now?!" "how am I STILL dealing with this?" "what's wrong with me?" That is a hard, and very real place, to be. I specialize in working with individuals who have not had success with therapy in the past, and individuals who are dealing with the long term impacts of trauma, persistent depression, relationship issues, and anxiety.

Hi, I'm Ashley and I have been in the mental health field for over 11 years. I am currently a Resident In Counseling, working as a clinical mental health therapist, a National Certified Counselor, and a Certified Substance Abuse Counselor for PIL Professional Counseling & Psychotherapy. I work with adults and adolescents that struggle with addiction, anxiety and depressive disorders, ADHD, anger management, and parenting skills. While mental health disorders like these are real, common, and in the way of functioning at times or even daily, the symptoms and emotional distress it causes are treatable and can be managed with tools.

The Apostle Paul said “each of us has one body with many members” (Romans 12:4-5). In a similar fashion, Willi Dalaba, LCSW, sees people composed of different parts that make up the whole. Physical, mental, emotional and spiritual all combine to make up an individual. A good counselor, she believes, may need to help a client bring into a better balance these different aspects of their personality. This is part of the theoretical grounding and expertise that Willi Dalaba brings to her years of counseling experience.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed and stuck, anxious and worried, curious about or ready to quit drinking/using, overly critical of yourself and others, sick of putting others before you, paralyzed by perfectionism, and losing yourself while people-pleasing the world, then notice the voice inside saying, "Now is the time.” The courage -is- inside you to make that call or send that email to start making changes now. If you answer "yes" to any of these, reach out below to get help.
