Self Esteem Therapists in Glendale, WI

Dr. Joan Jones Counseling & Consulting Center’s aim is to provide professional mental health counseling and consultation services to our clients. This is done by utilizing therapeutic approaches with efficient solution-oriented treatments to address the emotional, behavioral, social, and spiritual needs of our clients. Together we will create treatment goals to help increase healthy lifestyle and positive coping behaviors.

Sometimes life gets hard and we just want someone to listen and help guide us through in the healthiest and safest way possible. I am a psychotherapist who has done just that for many clients in the 15 plus years I have been in practice. My first priority is to help you feel safe and comfortable in working with me. I am an eclectic therapist that uses different techniques and modalities because I believe every client’s needs are individualized. I am a laid-back therapist that can bring humor into session when appropriate but I am also able to be direct in what I see and what I feel the best treatment needs are.

Hardship in life may be inevitable, but emotional turmoil does not have to be. At times we exhaust our coping resources, which leaves us feeling stuck or overwhelmed. With space and support, I fully believe each person can become “unstuck” to live a more fulfilling and meaningful life. Increasing self-awareness helps you get unstuck and influences personal growth and self-acceptance. By prioritizing a strong therapeutic relationship characterized by warmth, safety, and understanding, I can support you in developing effective coping skills and facilitate deeper exploration of the underlying roots that gave rise to your struggles.

Hello! I am a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. I received my Master’s in Educational Psychology with an emphasis in community counseling. I've been a Licensed Professional Counselor for about 13 years. Experience: 10 yrs in private practice- working with the delinquent youth of MKE county, also worked in a residential facility for dually diagnosed children with autism. More recently worked with those who struggle with substance abuse and dependency.

Through therapy I strive to empower clients to feel safe to open up and work through whatever issues they may be struggling with. I work to understand where clients are coming from and provide the extra support they need. I have a passion for working with a diverse range of clients from elementary school aged children all the way to adults with various presenting concerns. I believe in considering issues from a holistic perspective to inspire positive change.

Are you feeling unsure of what to do or where to go next? Stuck in habits that have kept you safe but are wishing there may be some other way to live? If you feel like you may want to find a little bit more to enjoy out of life and to have a space to find support in putting down the weight of your day-to-day, to help learn new skills to manage stress, regulate emotions, and to explore the possibilities of a life worth living then you’ve come to the right place. Whether it's a space to talk things through, or explore new ideas, I'd be more than happy to help where I can. Currently my most common availability is every other week.

About Me: Hey! My name is Tim Fasano and I am a clinical social worker here at Meadowbrook. Compassion is at the heart of my therapeutic approach as I seek to combine authentic encounters with evidence-based techniques to meet you where you are and to support you in creating real and attainable goals. With a deep-rooted passion for helping others navigate life's challenges, I offer care for individuals facing a variety of challenges such as PTSD, depression, grief, parent-child conflict, obsessive-compulsive disorder, borderline personality disorder, and schizophrenia spectrum disorder.

There are many benefits of counseling. Counseling helps us figure things out; it can help us achieve our goals, and it can help us mend or improve important relationships in our lives. It can help us find reasons to live and new ways to love ourselves, and it can help us learn to cope with what life has handed us or to grieve what has been taken from us. And overall, counseling can offer reassurance that things are going to be ok. There are a number of reasons people just like you come to counseling; struggling in a relationship, family conflict, help establishing boundaries, processing past trauma, or having problems at work.

I am a compassionate individual who believes in the resiliency and potential of the human spirit. As a nurse and psychotherapist, I have knowledge and skills in providing psychotherapy and working closely with adolescents, adults, and seniors from diverse cultures with complex mental and physical issues. As a therapist, I seek to create a safe, comfortable, accepting, professional, environment that promotes trust and openness to healing and self-discovery.

Are you struggling in ways you don't feel equipped to handle? Anxiety, depression, academic issues, or changes in your eating or sleeping habits? It's okay! You aren't supposed to have all the answers. Getting professional support now can give you a lifetime of better mental health by teaching you the skills you need to succeed in an environment that feels safe and supportive.

Change begins with nonjudgemental curiosity. I am a good fit for people who feel lost or un-compassed in their life due to codependency and/or trauma.

Change is inevitable, they say...and it’s hard. Whether the change you're experiencing is unexpected or was hard sought-after, the effect is largely the same: it leaves you feeling disoriented, misunderstood and alone. In place of the control and mastery you once felt in your life, there is now chaos. You find yourself either paralyzed by in-decision or fighting desperately to find a foothold, but you just keep slipping...

I'm passionate about helping individuals navigate life's challenges and discover their inner strengths. As a dedicated counselor, I aim to create a safe and supportive space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgment. My approach to therapy is rooted in empathy, authenticity, and collaboration. I believe in tailoring treatment to meet your unique needs and goals. Together, we'll work towards enhancing self-awareness, building resilience, and fostering meaningful connections.

As the owner of Psychological Health Sanctuary, Alexander views clients as the experts of themselves, and clinicians as the experts of theory and application. Together a positive change can be made to develop new ways of experiencing life.

I believe we are all inherently capable of change, especially when we acknowledge where we're falling short. I help guide people to make positive life changes by examining thoughts and feelings, and setting realistic goals for self-improvement. If you're not looking to set many goals, therapy is also just a safe space to process feelings you wouldn't otherwise process. I have done extensive work with general adult mental health and substance abuse, and I enjoy an integration of various holistic approaches to therapy. I value and respect all walks of life and take a culturally-sensitive approach.

Feeling stuck or like it’s been hard to make decisions lately? You may feel like you want to make a change but don’t know where to start. Tapping into your creativity and natural intuition through art therapy can help you feel more centered and present in your life. You don’t need to be an artist to benefit from art therapy. You need only a willingness to try new things and a desire for personal growth.

I am very multifaceted in my interests and type of individuals I like to treat. I am very experienced with over 30 years of experience working as a psychologist and am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR (Certified Therapist/Consultant), Brainspotting, NLP, Internal Family Systems, Holographic Memory Resolution, and Havening. I am experienced in dealing with a variety of issues including anxiety, depression, trauma, ADD/ADHD, adjustment issues, grief, couples/relationships, eating disorders and sleep. I am compassionate in my approach as I work with clients to address areas of challenge.

At times it can feel like you’re hiding in plain sight. On the outside, you are admired for your attention to detail and ability to juggle multiple demands with apparent ease. You are an overachiever, going above and beyond, all while silently grappling with inner chaos. You're an expert in the art of people-pleasing, a well-honed skill that serves as a way to navigate interactions and avoid the sting of rejection or misunderstanding. You carefully plan your days to maintain some sense of control and order. Yet, despite your achievements and the admiration of others, you still feel a deep sense of inadequacy, and you are tired.

Maybe you are dealing with a chronic issue like depression or anxiety and have tried other avenues before. Perhaps you are dealing with or contemplating a major life change. A safe environment and neutral party can help you get your life back on track and reach your goals. I believe that healing and growth is a personal change process that happens in the context of a caring, non-judgmental therapeutic relationship based upon research supported techniques. I will work collaboratively with you to figure out where you want to go and determine the best path to get there.
