I’m Nitish with 20+ years practicing Counseling. My calling started during my 3rd year as a pre-med student. Something in me wanted to figure out why I felt like I had a chip on my shoulder. This lead me to investigating Psychology that became my vocation thereafter. Understanding why humans feel, think, and act in certain ways helped me to understand myself and people around me. I could feel God had given me new tools to learn about His pinnacle of creation. It was like gaining a window into my soul. After all, by definition, Psychology is the study of the soul.

In our lives, we can find ourselves stuck, confused, overwhelmed, and weary; perplexed about how our life is unfolding. We find ourselves asking what is happening with me? How did I get here? To understand the complexity of the challenges we’re facing as humans, we need to start with pausing to build awareness and perspective. Yet, when we’re tangled up inside ourselves, in our circumstances, relationships, all of life’s distractions, and the conditioning of our past experiences, it’s so difficult to do this work on our own. That is what the work of therapy is about: partnering with a trained guide in this uncharted territory.

Of primary importance to me is that I truly hear you, letting you know that you are understood and that our time together is a safe, nurturing place in which to heal. This helps us develop a plan together in which we can work to revise unhealthy, repetitive thought patterns and develop new ways of thinking, using healthy communication tools and skills to provide that full life we wish for. I combine talk therapy with specialized therapies targeted to your specific needs and areas in which you wish to grow. Therapy is geared toward your needs, not the therapist's direction.

Alcohol Use Therapists
Are there specific medications for alcohol use?
There are oral medications approved to treat alcohol use disorder—such as disulfiram, acamprosate, and naltrexone, which also comes in an injectable form. These medications do help people reduce their drinking as well as avoid the problem of relapse. Naltrexone helps reduce cravings, disulfiram can make a person feel sick when they drink, and acamprosate may help ease symptoms like poor sleep and anxious feelings.
How do alcohol recovery or rehabilitation programs work?
In inpatient programs, individuals live in a facility with other patients in recovery; in outpatient programs,individuals live at home. These facilities are staffed with healthcare professionals including physicians, nurses, psychologists, counselors, and psychotherapists. Staff can also include people who have recovered themselves, serving as mentors and guides. These programs may use abstinence, harm reduction, detoxification, psychotherapy, and other tools for recovery.
How do 12-step programs combined with psychotherapy work?
Members of 12-step programs help each other reach abstinence and work to maintain it. These programs promote complete change in the individual’s emotional, mental, physical, and even spiritual perspectives. Some programs require that new members attend 90 meetings in 90 days. Many people do attend these programs in conjunction with their work in psychotherapy; the combination of therapy along with 12-step can be extremely effective.
How does harm reduction combined with psychotherapy work?
According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, harm reduction prevents death, injury, disease, overdose, and substance misuse. People who choose harm reduction for alcohol use reduce the amount of alcohol they intake. It is not abstinence-based like a 12-step program, but combining harm reduction with psychotherapy proves to be effective for many people.
