Ilene Dillon Biography

Ilene Dillon, MSW, LCSW, LMFT, is the founder of Emotional Mastery for Life and a recognized authority on human emotions. With more than 50 years as a psychotherapist, marriage and family counselor, coach, and teacher, Dillon brings decades of experience guiding individuals toward emotional clarity, healing, and transformation.

Known as The Emotional Pro, Dillon is dedicated to helping individuals who feel stuck in life to move forward. As the developer of Emotional Realignment, she specializes in helping people understand and use emotions as they are designed to work, addressing personal challenges at their root and supporting conscious life design.

Dillon’s expertise in emotional mastery is informed by personal experience. After facing significant challenges in her own life, including navigating anger and emotional upheaval as a single parent, she developed systems for emotional awareness and management. These systems have been taught to thousands and are reflected in her identification as a recovered angry person.

Dillon is a global speaker, podcast host and guest, and a multiple Amazon International and National No. 1 bestselling author. Her works include "Emotions in Motion: Mastering Life's Built-in Navigation System," "End Manipulation: Stop Being Jerked Around by Toxic, Energy-Draining People," and contributions to "The Wellness Universe Guide to Complete Self-Care." She has authored more than 20 books, workbooks, and media albums, and hosted "Full Power Living" for 13 years. Dillon’s work in the Emotional Literacy movement includes "Exploring Anger with Your Child."

As a professional speaker, Dillon has presented in China, Australia, Europe, on cruise ships, and throughout the United States in hospitals, churches, parenting groups, school conferences, and with businesses and associations. She has appeared on national television and created and hosted "Full Power Living," an Internet radio program dedicated to emotional mastery. Dillon has also served on the board of the National Speakers Association.

Traveling full-time in her RV, Dillon writes, teaches, and speaks across North America, sharing practical tools for emotional intelligence, emotional wellness, and personal growth.

Ilene Dillon Speaking Topics

  • Are You Tired of Being Manipulated?

    Everyone is born manipulative! We are DESIGNED to outgrow manipulation as we grow up, yet most people have "missed the memo." This talk is designed to introduce the true origins of manipulation, why we do it, why we continue to manipulate as "adults," and ways to recognize when we are being manipulated by others. Lastly, things to do to end manipulation in our lives are featured. Manipulation involves our personal energy. In these changing times, people are being pushed to get in charge of their personal energy, to have happier and more empowered lives. Audience members experience relief in knowing this information about manipulation, which can lead them to "outgrowing" manipulation (in themseelves and by others) in their lives.

  • Realigning with Anger: Why and How to Develop Anger Mastery

    Anger is incredibly disruptive in today's world. Because we have not been dealing with anger based on what it actually is, and what it is designed to do for us, we've been ineffective in working with anger definitively, allowing it to build up and negatively influence our mental and physical health, and relationships. Recent research has revealed that repressed anger can, and does, kill us. In this talk, we identify what anger IS, its characteristics, its message for us, and how to work with it so anger becomes an asset, as it is designed to serve us. Participants leave with an understanding of anger, how and why repressed anger is dangerous to us, and how to begin working with anger as "partners," allowing anger to do its work FOR us.
