I’m Nisha, a relational, trauma-informed therapist and founder of Inner Work Psychotherapy.

I work with adults navigating unhealthy or challenging relationships. Many of my clients are exploring the impact of growing up in dysfunctional family systems while working through difficult family dynamics, attachment concerns, and challenges with understanding and regulating their emotions across various areas of life.

I believe everyone has the capacity to create new patterns that support the life they want to live. My mission is to help people understand themselves more deeply, break cycles that no longer serve them, and build healthier relationships with themselves and others.

Together, we’ll work toward helping you live a more intentional, values-driven life.

I see clients ages 18–50 for individual therapy and provide group therapy as well.

My style of counseling is grounded in authenticity, compassion, and meaningful human connection. I believe healing begins in a space where you feel seen, heard, valued, and accepted without judgment. As a person-centered therapist, I see you as the expert on your own life and honor the experiences that have shaped you. My goal is to offer a warm, supportive relationship where you can explore your thoughts and feelings openly, reconnect with your strengths, and move toward the life you want to create.

Hello! As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) for 30 years working with children, adolescents and adults, my passion is helping individuals struggling with life's challenges and trauma. I am EMDR Certified and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. Additionally, I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavorial Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and Somatic Therapy. Treatment areas include depression; anxiety, trauma; childhood and adult abuse, PTSD, grief, ADHD, parenting, relationship challenges and life transitions.

I have over 25 years of professional experience in addition to having a dual degree in Mental Health Counseling and Marriage and Family Therapy. I have been one who always believed that you never stop learning. I am humbled by my vast interactions with both individuals, and or couples who have allowed me to learn and grow as a person from them. This is what separates me from my colleagues. My training is derived from not only you but gaining valuable experience by working in Hospital Emergency Rooms, Inpatient Psychiatric Hospitals for Both Children & Adults, Substance Abuse -Dependency Clinics, Correction Mental Health as well as Alzheimer's-Dementia and Nursing Home Facilities. In addition, working in Private. Practice. I am extremely comfortable working with people of all ages, genders and ethnicities.

I'm a retired veteran, have been working as a social worker/therapist since 2004, and have been in private practice since 2017. I have extensive and successful experience helping people with trauma/PTSD, relationships, boundaries, emotions, domestic violence, sexual trauma, substance abuse, grief, parenting, and more.

You may be functioning on the outside, but inside you know something isn’t working. You might feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, stuck, disconnected from yourself, misaligned inside or within your life, or unsure of what comes next. Perhaps you’re navigating depression, stress, a life or relationship transition, workplace challenges, self-doubt, or simply realizing that the way things are no longer feels like the way you want them to be. I help you make sense of what feels complicated, explore what's possible, reconnect with your strengths, and gain clarity about what you want to create moving forward.
