Different Arrangement for Therapy for Alcohol Abuse

I am drinking too heavily and I believe I would benefit from talking to someone about ways that I might be able to drink less. I am not sure why this is but often my good intentions to drink less get subverted by some process that I don’t really understand that gets me pouring into a glass each night without my even thinking about it too much. In the mornings I feel shame and regret but somehow I just keep repeating this process over and over again. I guess I am an alcoholic but I am reluctant to go to an AA meeting. I live in a fairly small town and I have a position of some importance and it would not be good for people to think of me as a drunk.

Because of my desire for discretion and confidentiality I was thinking that telephone or internet counseling would meet my needs very well. I think that if I could set up a 5 minute conversation for the end of the work day every day then that might be enough to keep me from drinking at night. I know that therapists usually bill for hour long sessions but I was wondering if you had ever heard of an arrangement that was based on very short daily sessions as needed?
