EMDR helps move you out of these negative mental patterns and into a more healthy way of functioning. EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. It is a proven and well-researched therapeutic technique that combines talking and structured eye movement that is similar to what occurs naturally during dreaming or REM (rapid eye movement). You are conscious during the entire session. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1574359185318-V2QP03SZ0JPZ5LVVP6VV/anastasia-vityukova-QhKX67yT7wk-unsplash.jpg My Specialties - Career and life transitions Many life transitions, even good ones, are filled with some sadness, anxiety, fear, or sudden and often intense shifts in feelings. They involve losses of people, places, roles and a sense of where you fit in the world. A life transition can be positive or negative, planned or unexpected. Some are very dramatic, such as accidents, death, divorce, job loss or a serious illness. Other life transitions are "happy" events like marriage, moving in with a significant other, a new job, moving to a new city, starting school or having a child. Even though these events are typically planned and anticipated, they can stir up a lot of emotional feelings and worry. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1573834756428-0EIHZ8AICZPFIG8JD4UZ/sharon-mccutcheon-Oyvnok5gZEo-unsplash+%281%29.jpg My Specialties - LGBTQ+ For many LGBTQ+ people, life can be filled with feelings of self-judgment, confusion, and either subtle or overt messages that part of you is wrong or bad. Many LGBTQ+ people are reacting to the bullying that happened to them as children and, as a result, shy away from intimacy, trust, and vulnerability. Others are often reacting to the very real, current day attacks on gay and lesbian individuals and couples. Together we’ll help you find community, work through any lingering hurts and feel more safe and secure within yourself and in relationships with others. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1573833685434-KMQQMZ4LCVYUR62B6AS8/dimitar-belchev-41aXLXKrpJI-unsplash+%281%29.jpg My Specialties - couples counseling Interpersonal relationships can be great sources of strength, but can also be great sources of stress. We all share a fundamental need for closeness and security, but very few of us had great models for how to develop and sustain relationships with others, let alone how to deal with the inevitable conflicts that arise in those relationships. I am skilled, knowledgeable and experienced at helping people learn how to resolve conflicts and strengthen their relationships. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1573833858926-7QN7QB32LNXIC60J3E4K/cam-adams-imBSxksI7DA-unsplash.jpg My Specialties - Drugs & Alcohol There are many reasons why people use drugs and alcohol. People start using drugs or alcohol for good reasons: to fit in, to socialize, to have fun, to relax, to ease anxiety or to self-medicate for depression, anxiety or the lingering effects of trauma. Sometimes drug or alcohol use can begin to feel out of control. Even if it doesn't feel out of control, it may be something you'd like to change, reduce, quit or learn to use in a less harmful and more healthful way. I help people change their relationships to drugs and alcohol in non-shaming ways. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1573832682760-ZHOK9ZXYLE0DSOU5TM5R/chang-duong-Sj0iMtq_Z4w-unsplash.jpg My Specialties https://www.johnwiskind.com/couples-counseling daily 0.75 2019-10-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1571443734756-NWIFSDJVTXB2KZ7VAH7T/image-asset.jpeg Couples Counseling https://www.johnwiskind.com/lgbtq-counseling daily 0.75 2019-10-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1571871549973-T4K874EF5FZYU1LIEZTO/image-asset.jpeg Gay & Lesbian Counseling https://www.johnwiskind.com/emdr-for-trauma daily 0.75 2019-11-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1571444476039-BKX6S3FLYCHXTBTJA6QA/image-asset.jpeg EMDR for Trauma https://www.johnwiskind.com/career-life-transitions daily 0.75 2019-10-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1571443284474-7C6I7812KU73AY6CTUL9/image-asset.jpeg Career & Life Transitions https://www.johnwiskind.com/adolescent-teen-counseling daily 0.75 2019-10-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1571445150091-2WNZ9ZN43UW4W8QI1SE4/image-asset.jpeg Adolescent & Teen Counseling https://www.johnwiskind.com/drug-alcohol-counseling daily 0.75 2019-10-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1571870633340-BDYETY7ENHODPJRAI2MO/image-asset.jpeg Drug & Alcohol Counseling https://www.johnwiskind.com/about-me daily 0.75 2025-05-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1574442411532-GYUQVKC4VWFYK7QRKJUX/marivi-pazos-cvpk5Y4ZWUs-unsplash+%281%29.jpg About Me https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1574442416241-IA5ZQRSGIEMA9A7BVTW2/desiree-fawn-0tkmbWNLm9E-unsplash.jpg About Me https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1574442436217-OYB86MHQI5Y1P40X59JT/mi-pham-FtZL0r4DZYk-unsplash+%282%29.jpg About Me https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1572389119477-FMN6L12J2IUSJWPSCUDR/john-wiskind-bay-area-therapist.jpg About Me https://www.johnwiskind.com/offices daily 0.75 2024-01-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1574442752791-XQ5HCHE57V9FRBOB84LV/saksham-gangwar-XggyUb9YCGQ-unsplash.jpg Office Locations https://www.johnwiskind.com/contact daily 0.75 2020-01-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1573014841129-ATEGXOQN5VHZZ48Q4ICI/clement-eastwood-Gtz39oChT0A-unsplash+%281%29.jpg Contact Me https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1573014979911-L0P7XM5X98M8HL1DU9O0/pablo-heimplatz-fVL0zZdk-R4-unsplash.jpg Contact Me https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1573015028084-W6DV0NT7MHDQFO7FANS3/caroline-hernandez-TMpQ5R9mbOc-unsplash.jpg Contact Me https://www.johnwiskind.com/training-consultation daily 0.75 2025-05-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1572913637328-DQBK53OO94L2PGE1O7QZ/jakob-owens-B5sNgRtYPQ4-unsplash+%281%29.jpg Training & Consultation https://www.johnwiskind.com/fees-insurance daily 0.75 2025-07-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1572913286836-8S9XQS41S3I0SRZTVXI7/anthony-delanoix-hzgs56Ze49s-unsplash.jpg Fees & Insurance https://www.johnwiskind.com/how-i-work daily 0.75 2019-11-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1572927938536-NDOOECO8B8ID3UYDNQG7/rachel-walker-fdYWSfH8N6Y-unsplash.jpg How I Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1572928070686-J5UA8GOQXNKMT5BL2LSL/jamie-brown-wm4DuvIpLj8-unsplash+%281%29.jpg How I Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1572928124974-ZHU2TQNCMCVI5FJ59T1Z/matheus-ferrero-TkrRvwxjb_8-unsplash+%281%29.jpg How I Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1572928300565-PL2VLT9DNPTME1SEG189/images+copy.jpg How I Work https://www.johnwiskind.com/blog daily 0.75 2019-11-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1574313973793-CHTAK975DKP3EWV1M5S6/zoltan-tasi-0khu-rgbjzo-unsplash.jpg BLOG https://www.johnwiskind.com/associates daily 0.75 2025-11-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1574373368915-KYD9R9YFJZP84CX5DLBG/nathan-anderson-FHiJWoBodrs-unsplash+%282%29.jpg Associates https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1574373411719-LIAY3WVRFA6F8VYHC0YZ/gus-moretta-BCyfpZE3aVE-unsplash+%282%29.jpg Associates https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5daa24fc9a9f9f7b4aa57a53/1574373444912-CHZRIR01ETANBUXLAFHM/anastasia-vityukova-mS8AvYftiZY-unsplash+%282%29.jpg Associates https://www.johnwiskind.com/404-not-found daily 0.75 2019-11-15
