My approach to therapy is relational, psychodynamic and humanistic.

Are you facing a change in your life, or some obstacle that leaves you feeling tired, defeated, overwhelmed, constantly stressed, and alone? Do you feel stuck in your current struggles like your tires are spinning but you aren’t going anywhere? I work with my clients to explore how their experiences in life have shaped their relationships with themselves and how to improve that self-relationship. I help my clients find new, constructive ways to channel difficult emotions to feel better in daily life. I help my clients explore healthier ways of relating to themselves and to others.

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 hard and messy. You feel like there is no hope, you have nowhere to turn, leaving you feeling helpless. Or it can begin to feel like a roller coaster ride, moods lifting you up and down, issue after issue rolling in waves of emotions. Not knowing how to think or feel. Therapy can empower you to create growth, build confidence, and increase your self-esteem. Find the strength to face your journey and empower change within yourself.

I work with individuals, couples, and families. Counseling is an art form.... the art of listening, the ability to create visual understanding of deeply embedded meaning regarded as truth vs. constructions. Healing begins when a client feels safe enough to deconstruct and replace maladaptive beliefs and behaviors. Integrating new perspectives and a fresh understanding of old stories is a means to sustainable change - a gift of self acceptance. As a therapeutic guide, I believe that each of us is the best source of our own healing....I am there to facilitate what is already true and wise in each client.

I specialize in eating disorders, dissociative disorders & complex trauma, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Our bodies hold deep wisdom but for many, as a result of trauma, emotional and physical distress, and systemic oppression, to name a few, the connection to this wisdom has been disrupted and damaged. I will meet you where ever you are at in the process as we learn to listen to what your body and story hold.

Does your life or path look very different than those around you? Do you have a hard time saying "no" to others & feeling guilty or resentful in your relationships? If this sounds like you; I can help. I am honored to do this work & it is a privilege to work alongside clients as you learn to accept your own path, set healthy boundaries with those around you, and learn how to build a life of peace & authenticity.

Therapy is about asking yourself the radical question: What hurts and why? Together, we will spend time with this question - gently, slowly, carefully. Therapy is not only for those with "capital T" trauma or a mental health diagnosis, but for anyone who would like to get to know themselves, perhaps for the first time. To listen to what emerges when you pay kind, careful attention to yourself. You may be seeking more fulfilling relationships, relief from challenging feelings/behaviors, or deeper self-understanding.

No matter what a person is put through in life, the power to transform is infinite.
