Penny & Bill
aka Rev. Dr. Penny Taylor, LCSW and Rev. Dr. Bill Ressl, LCSW
Here to Help Re-Discover Life's Treasures

We founded the Penny & Bill Company, dba Center to Awaken Kindness to encourage well-being and wellness. Simply, we create and offer self-care products and services that help to refresh and renew the body, mind, and soul. Each guided and self-guided self-care solution we develop is grounded in clinically proven contemporary practices and historic spiritually grounded methods. A number of our self-care solutions are available 24/7. Individual and couples counseling in the State of Illinois is available by appointment.

Come Join the Journey... and see what God has planned!

Our Mission and Hope
What's in a Name? Why DaRevsUSA?
The challenges of 2020 led us to rethink life. Remembering what we learned from our mentor and friend, the late Rev. Dr. Robert Moore ... when stress goes up, it's time to increase prayer life. We did - restructuring the Penny & Bill Company to offer a number of mindfully contemplative tools, practices, and services. As Doctors of the Soul we develop contemplative self-care tools and practices for this contemporary moment grounded in Schematic-Based Cognitive Therapy (SBCT). Join us as we awaken a sacred sense of love and kindness in the world one person at a time.
