Dr. Dilley's Clinical Practice

In her private practice, Dr. Dilley offers various types of services that include individual psychotherapy, family therapy, couples therapy, and group therapy. She also provides psychological testing, using one of the most innovative testing protocols available, the Millon Multiaxial Clinical Inventories. Her goal is to provide you with the best comprehensive psychotherapy services available, either within her office or by referral.

• Individual Psychotherapy is an individualized process geared to facilitate a journey of personal growth examining how the messages (beliefs about the self), patterns (ways of coping), and behaviors (ways of adapting) keep you repeating unwanted cycles in your current life's situations.
• Family Therapy is a process that involves as many family members that you can dig up to come along into the office and process the family genogram together. More often than not, a child or an adolescent is "chosen" by the unconscious family process to develop symptoms of behavior that are not acceptable in their family system. As a result, the family attempts to get a therapist to see only the identified patient and fix them. Family Therapy at its best is done with a co-therapist. The two therapists work hard at helping family members explore what really is going on underneath the chaos being caused by the identified patient.
• Couples Therapy is only for the brave and courageous. Couples therapy is not designed for people who just want to change the other partner. Couples work is the hardest work of psychotherapy and truly only the fittest survive.
• Group Therapy offers several different venues such as self-esteem, women's issues, couples work, anger management, and psycho-educational groups. Dr. Dilley often runs an intensive psychotherapy group designed to do serious psychotherapy work on the most difficult issues and problems. Call her office to check on availability of that group.
• The Millon Inventories is a unique psychological testing tool that helps Dr. Dilley look at your psychological patterns. All of us score something on any psychological test we take. What makes the Millon different is that it is not interested in pathologizing people into name-calling diagnosis, but informing people about how they operate in life, based on their top three scores. By understanding the triangle of power in one's life, then one can begin to make necessary changes.
• Consulting and Coaching are aspects of Dr. Dilley's practice where she comes to you and does a complete assessment of what your needs are and offers constructive techniques and ideas that will help you resolve some of your difficulties in workplace settings, educational venues, or other troublesome spots creating havoc in your daily life.
• Workshops on spirituality, psychotherapy, and the power of story are also available throughout the year.
