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.

Are you thrown off balance by unresolved fears, shame, anxiety or distress? Is your relationship with food and your body a source of stress that interrupts your ability to fully immerse yourself in the present moment, robbing you of connection with yourself and others? For many of us, our past collides with the present and we struggle to make sense of our lived experience. I am of the mind that the only way out is in. I welcome you to embark on a journey into yourself, where you may discover abandoned and rejected parts of yourself, and a wellspring of insight and self-compassion for your most difficult challenges.

My approach is grounded in humanism, recognizing your unique experiences and potential for growth. I believe in your ability to find your own answers and solutions, and I'm here to support you along the way and explore the challenges in your life. Sometimes we get stuck or lost on our journey in life, and that’s ok. Whether you’re grappling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or life transitions, I offer a compassionate and collaborative partnership. I use an integrated whole-person approach to understand who you are and what makes you, you. There is no perfect modality or a “one size shoe fits all” approach to therapy.

Counseling with me is strengths-based, humanistic, somatic, transpersonal and existential. My work is rooted in my commitment to personal & collective healing and development.

My orientation towards all healing is rooted in the truth that we are all whole and unique and that our patterns are always evolving.

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.

Life is a roller coaster! So many things have been changing around you that it’s been hard to get your head on straight. Between the ages of 18-45 women have so many roles to play these days, and you’ve been doing your best to keep up. But somehow you always feel like you aren’t doing it “right”. Family, school, work, friends – you’re always expected to perform and rarely get a moment to relax. Expectations come from all sides. The pressure keeps building and you’re just about ready to explode. Anxiety and depression take over. You don’t know how to cope with it all. Your days become exhausting.

Looking for support navigating life and life changes? I can help. Therapy can help shift something within our control or change how we relate to things outside of it. This might look like understanding why we're repeating patterns and what we can do to change them or developing healthy strategies and boundaries to deal with people, places, and things we can't change. We'll work to identify the patterns of emotions, thoughts, behaviors, and relationships currently showing up in your life, and how you want to adjust them to live a life more in alignment with what you truly value. For Couples, I offer a 6-week communication seminar.

I have tremendous success is treating clients with issues related to adolescence, transitioning into young adulthood, failure to launch, parent/child conflict, anxiety, trauma and developing mental focus to achieve specific performance goals and aspirations. My clients typically have a problem or a goal they are trying to work through to improve their life in the present and the future.

We all want to be seen and understood and at the same time are afraid of what we and others will find. We don't trust ourselves or our decisions. We suffer from anxiety, depression, traumas and a myriad of other relational issues. In counseling we learn to understand ourselves and others by telling our stories well. As a greek philosopher once said, "An unexamined life isn't worth living". When we learn to examine ourselves with curiosity, compassion, and truth our life becomes clear hopeful and fullfilling.
