I believe that to successfully address the issues you bring to therapy, it is necessary for us to establish a confidential and trusting relationship. We will explore your thoughts and feelings in relation to the problems that made you seek therapy, establish goals for your treatment, and discuss your personal history, as it is relevant to your present situation. Through both of our efforts, we will do the best we can to achieve a successful outcome.

Getting up in the morning, you wish you had a sense of joy. Work is dreadful. Endless meetings and classes leave you feeling the numb. You feel too dried out to pray or read scripture. Church services have become chores rather than hope. A nagging sense of your old family "stuff" is weighing you down. Feeling good has become a wish rather than an experience. You're not alone. Life doesn't have to be this way.

What is your biggest challenge that, if overcome, would completely change your life? If it was simply a matter of knowing the answer to this question, everyone would be living exactly the life they desired. In reality, "knowing" is only half of the journey. Working together, we will co-create a partnership to explore your opportunities and challenges, making space in your life for the future that you desire. I believe that everyone can and should be living the life of their dreams, because, after all, this is not a dress rehearsal!

I work with youth, age 13+, and adults across the lifespan. I'm passionate about LGBTQIA+ and gender affirming mental health therapy. I support folks in navigating and exploring relationship to self and others (sex and body neutral, ethical non-monogamy and poly affirming), anxiety, depression, trauma, family of origin, disability, chronic-illness, grief, substance use, life transitions and challenges. I have an intersectional, anti-oppressive approach to therapy— highlighting how our relationship to ourselves, community, environment, and historical legacies impact and affect each other.

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.

Struggling with confusion and anger? Family, friends, co-workers taking you for granted, or don't listen? That's frustrating, and I'd love to help! Can't sleep, work, or focus on important matters because of ongoing arguments in your head, or an urge to find someone to blame? Maybe you feel trapped, and no matter what you do, that feeling of not getting anywhere makes it worse. It's so upsetting that slowly you are losing confidence in your sanity. Everybody experiences something like this occasionally. But your life doesn't have to constantly be this way.

I offer a free initial consultation and have evening appointments. I am a believer in the individual's ability to heal and live a healthy and amazing life with an approach to therapy including compassion, humor, responsibility, and empathy. The client/therapist relationship is one of trust and communication while utilizing inner resources, which individuals and couples may not know they already have. I have been working as a counselor with individuals, couples, and groups for over 10 years and have extensive experience in the areas of childhood abuse, relationship issues, depression, trauma, anxiety, and personal growth.
