Getting to know Dr. Steven Nakisher

Dr. Steven Nakisher is a Licensed Clinical Psychologist, founder of the Center for Personal Development, and co-founder of Cornerpiece Consulting. He earned his undergraduate degree from the University of Michigan and completed his PsyD in Clinical Psychology at the Chicago School of Professional Psychology. Dr. Nakisher has a distinctive background working with individuals across the lifespan, providing therapy and consultation to individuals, couples, groups, leaders, and teams. His areas of expertise include working with adults who struggle with identity, relationships, substance abuse, and addictions, often co-occurring with depression, anxiety, grief and loss, or other deeper personality challenges. Dr. Nakisher's approach can be best described as ?get out of your own way? therapy. You are the common denominator in all of your life experiences. Regardless of the role you've played, it's likely time to get out of your own way and live a more authentic, productive, and fulfilling life. You deserve it. He has tremendous respect for how life's challenges are experienced and managed. The struggle is real. However, he has learned that sometimes the challenges that feel most complicated do so because of the meanings we've associated with them and the methods by which we've coped. It's the ritualized patterns that leave us feeling misunderstood, underappreciated, and stuck that need to be addressed.
