In this episode of the Impact Recovery Podcast, host Sarah Pritchard sits down with Nisha Patel, LPC, for an honest conversation about alcoholism, recovery, and finding purpose through personal experience. Nisha shares her own story of struggling with alcohol and the journey that ultimately led her into recovery. What began as her own personal battle became a calling to help others navigate addiction, sobriety, and the impact alcoholism can have on the entire family.
Today, Nisha works with individuals and families at every stage of the recovery process. Through sober coaching, DBT therapy, family coaching, and individualized support, she helps people build the skills, accountability, and connections needed to create meaningful, lasting change.
Sarah and Nisha talk about what addiction can look like behind closed doors, the transition from personal recovery to professional purpose, and why supporting the family is such an important part of the recovery process.
