Understanding that reviews of extremely personal therapy sessions can be somewhat subjective, I…read morewill attempt to merely state the facts of my OWN treatment with Dr. Jackson. It is an honest, non-offensive, and accurate review of my interaction with him. This same review was originally posted at http://yellowpages.com as well as http://alltherapist.com. Although Dr. Jackson has apparently been practicing for years, it was the only review of him that existed at the time. I came to learn that Dr. Jackson had my review removed from the yellowpages site. After reposting the same review there, I subsequently learned that Dr. Jackson had it removed yet again and learned that he removed his option to have reviews posted altogether on http://yellowpages.com, which I was informed was his right. Now it seems the ability to post a review of Dr. Jackson at http://yellowpages.com has since been restored so it has been reposted there. The original one-star review remained however, at http://alltherapist.com, though curiously it seems to have spawned a dozen or so glowing five-star reviews. Interestingly, those reviews are ALSO posted (nearly verbatim) at http://merchantcircle.com which I learned can be "hired" to post five-star reviews as a result of a single negative one, that the merchant can delete. This is verifiable from a simple Google search of http://merchantcircle.com. Though it is my opinion that this brings up several moral and ethical issues, not to mention speaking volumes about the character and integrity of the medical professional in whom I put my trust, I will however, allow the consumer form their own opinions. Here is my original review: I originally attended sessions with Mr. Jackson for couples counseling and found him to be bristling and grating (at times). I believe psychotherapy should be a somewhat collaborative effort between patient and counselor, but Mr. Jackson seemed consistently unwilling to listen to, and/or consider opinions, ideas, and concepts other than his own. He sometimes employed a style that was abrasive, derisive, and condescending, and it bothered me to the point where I mentioned to him that I felt he was being stunningly inappropriate, and that some of his comments were terribly unnescessary, and I believed detrimental to the resolution of the challenges I was experiencing at the time. He tried to justify this by telling me he was "using a new therepy technique", and that "obviously it wasn't working". I found this explanation not only dubious, but it was shocking that he could dismiss this behavior so flippantly, when it was so deeply troubling to me. These instances occurred when I saw him privately, and never in sessions that included my partner. In the middle of sessions revolving around the erosion of my relationship, the focus INSTANTLY shifted when I returned home from Mumbai after having survived the massacre inside the Oberoi/Trident hotel there, the night of 11/26/08. http://www.pprune.org/cabin-crew/353322-flight-attendants-report-mumbai-attacks.html Though I had not asked for treatment regarding this awful experience, immediately Mr. Jackson informed me that he and only ONE other individual in the entire STATE of Wisconsin were the "preeminent" practitioners of a new eye-movement therapy designed to treat Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. As he began to implement this technique (that he told me he was so proficient with) Mr. Jackson would lean over and read (verbatim) the text out of a book, while moving his finger from side to side. This "treatment" lasted multiple sessions. His attention rarely shifted out of the pages of this book, so I formed some doubts about the proficiency he told me he had with this technique. Months later my company reunited those of us who had suffered the events of that night, along with several grief counselors, psychiatrists, etc., in a group session (which I found to be VERY helpful for me). I recalled my own experiences with the eye-movement therapy with Dr. Jackson, and my recollection elicited gasps. Some of the other psychiatrists there expressed alarm. I decided that, based on my OWN experiences with Denis Ian Jackson that further treatment with him would be detrimental to not only overcoming the PTSD that I was experiencing, but also detrimental to solving the issues I was having with my relationship. Therefore, I cannot, and would NOT recommend Dr. Jackson.

I can't speak for other therapists at Cornerstone, but Dr. Schramka's approach is unprofessional…read moreand for the lack of a better term, lazy. Sessions were unorganized and I would have hoped for better and more consistent communication. Concerns and topics raised as talking points went completely ignored and unaddressed repeatedly. Billing errors occur understandably, but I was shocked in a communication from her where I was accused of "arguing" due to billing errors on Cornerstone's part. I was then accused in a condescending way that I was "quibbling" when I sent a polite inquiry. Do your research, perhaps look elsewhere. I would imagine professionalism, empathy and respect should ALWAYS be a key aspect of this profession. Coming away thinking more harm was done than good.
