What I Treat
Alcohol Addiction
Alcohol doesn't announce itself as a problem. It creeps in — one extra drink, one more reason to open the bottle, one more morning you wish you hadn't.
A note from Rahul
Certified Guidance Counsellor · CBT & REBT · Sober since 28 Nov 2016
"I know what alcohol dependency feels like from the inside — not from a textbook. I spent years believing I had it under control, even as my life told a different story. When I finally got help, I found that the shame I felt was the biggest barrier, not the alcohol itself. That experience is now at the heart of how I work with anyone going through the same thing."
What this can look like in daily life
Drinking more than you planned to, more often than you expected
Using alcohol to manage stress, anxiety, or social situations
Morning regret that doesn't stop the evening cycle
Hiding how much you drink from people who care about you
Feeling like you've "tried to stop" but can't make it stick
If any of this sounds familiar — you're not alone. And you don't have to figure it out by yourself.

Frequently asked questions
No. I am a sobriety coach and certified counsellor, not a medical professional. If you need medical support for detox, I will connect you with trusted medical practitioners and support you through the process.
Absolutely. Many of my clients work with me alongside medical professionals or therapists. My coaching complements clinical treatment — it doesn't replace it.
Every journey is different. Some clients work with me for 3 months, others for over a year. We'll talk about what makes sense for you in our free consultation.
No. You come as you are. We start from wherever you are right now and work from there.
Yes, completely. Nothing you share with me goes to anyone else — not family, not employers, not anyone.
