Joanna provides top-notch counseling & coaching services amongst our community. She is a true empath, healer, brilliantly creative, and most importantly - very passionate about helping her clients find their true, authentic selves and purpose so they can create positive changes and self-esteem in their lives. She has never-ending creative ideas and solutions to help clients find out who they are at their cores, and motivates them to tap into their passions and bring joy back into their lives again. I am very proud to be connected with her, and highly recommend The Mindful Mind to anyone who is ready to start self-exploring and healing to set up a life of abundance and joy. If I could give her 10 stars on this review, I would in a heartbeat.
Joanna worked with my father for a year or so and here’s what he had to say: Joanna Gates is an extraordinarily talented practitioner and articulator of self-healing modalities to enhance mental health and well- being. I have worked remotely with Joanna on a regular basis for nearly a year and am grateful for her personalized teaching and clear explanation of EMDR and other easily implemented techniques for staying in the creative and avoiding the flight or fight responses of my mind and body to my usual (and unusual) daily stressors. Joanna’s knowledge, informed by geniuses like Joe Dispenza, is extensive and very useful to share. Joanna is a compassionate and enlightening natural healer. —Daniel Kaufman Artist and Author
Jo has been incredible in providing help and support to my boys and me over the past couple of years. We are so grateful for everything she has done for us.
I had the privilege of having Joanna as a Child Development & Behavioral Coach when my son was just a year old, and I cannot speak highly enough of her. The transition for my son and I while working from home was challenging, but Joanna's strategies exceeded our expectations. Joanna's approach was not only effective in helping my son detach but also in fostering his development. Every day, she engaged him in creative crafts and activities, making her interactions with him not just easy but also enjoyable. Her wisdom in child development goes far beyond her years, and her insights into life, relationships, and psychology were invaluable. Beyond her professional demeanor and punctuality, Joanna provided unwavering support both in my role as a mother and in my work life. Unfortunately, due to a job relocation, we had to part ways, and finding someone as exceptional as Joanna has proven difficult. Even after our relocation, Joanna has stayed in touch, and my son's affection for her remains strong. He frequently asks about her and fondly remembers the time they spent together. Joanna's care extended beyond a professional level; it felt like having family support. In summary, Joanna is not just a Child Development & Behavioral Coach; she's a caring, knowledgeable, and supportive individual who left an indelible mark on our lives. We are forever grateful for the positive influence she had on our family, and finding someone as remarkable as her has proven to be an arduous task. We miss her so much!
Great experience. Professional, kind, and genuine. I would 100% recommend
Jo is very enthusiastic in her readiness to help and work with you on whatever you bring to the table.
Joanna is amazing!! She has helped me through many stages in life. Very kind, understanding, and straight forward
I have been working with Jo for about a year now and she has been a blessing. Through our time together I have learned how to conquer my stress and reset my energies. I am grateful to have found her and HIGHLY recommend this for anyone who is looking for a non traditional form of therapy that helps you handle the outer world demands with inner peace and creativity. Thank you Joanna!
