Just wanted to add that my experience was similar to those above.
Going to therapy while drinking was pretty much a waste of time. Addiction is characterized by lying, deceit, avoidance, and creates other mental health issues. (And I would have said I was an honest person while drinking. I couldn't see where I was lying to myself and others to protect my addiction.)
An addiction specialist might be a better fit if you're trying to get sober. And only if you're honest.
Just my two cents.
