My nursing career began in 2010 when I first became a Registered Nurse. In 2017 I graduated from Maryville University in St. Louis, MO with my master’s degree in nursing and became a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-C) licensed in Illinois. I have been blessed to work in many facets of healthcare since and has also become a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC). With a strong foundation in both primary care and mental health, my approach aligns overall wellness and hormone optimization with physical, mental, and lifestyle well-being.

Nisha Patel

Nisha Patel

Therapist

Virtual • Illinois


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.

Life can feel like a lot sometimes, whether you're navigating anxiety, grief, addiction, or the emotional weight of caring for a loved one. Maybe things feel tangled, or you're used to being the strong one for everyone else. You don’t have to figure it all out alone. I want to understand your story, what’s been heavy lately, and what you’re hoping will feel different. Together, we can begin to make sense of it all and help you feel more steady, supported, and like yourself again.

Therapist

Virtual • Illinois


I have been a therapist for over 20 years and have expertise in depression and anxiety, grief, relationship issues, life transitions, women's issues, and problematic anger. Although I work with people of all faiths and backgrounds, I also enjoy providing faith-based counseling to Christian clients to support them spiritually in treatment. I earned my BA in psychology from Butler University and my MA in Clinical Psychology from Trinity International University. I am curious and teachable, willing to learn from observation and from others. I am a wife, daughter, sister, and mom of three ranging from elementary school to adulthood, with disabilities and chronic illness. I love spending time with my family, good coffee, and taking a walk with a good friend.

Psychologist

I'm a licensed psychologist and consider myself a generalist with a wide variety of clinical interests including issues related to family of origin, self esteem, identity development, depression, anxiety, stress, and interpersonal relationships.

Attending to mental health can have such a profound effect on quality of life and ability to function! Yet, it can seem so vulnerable and scary to make that first appointment, even if we know it will help. Great job leaning into that discomfort, prioritizing your needs, and pushing toward growth!

Welcome! I’m glad you’re here.

I am a licensed therapist in Illinois with over 13 years of experience helping individuals navigate life’s challenges. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed by stress or anxiety, struggling with relationship or family concerns, adjusting to a major life transition, or experiencing depression, you don’t have to face it alone.

My goal is to create a warm, compassionate, and judgment-free space where you can openly explore your thoughts and emotions, gain new perspectives, and develop practical strategies to move forward with confidence.

Reaching out for support is a meaningful first step, and it takes courage to begin. Whatever brings you to therapy, I look forward to meeting you where you are and partnering with you on your journey toward healing, growth, and lasting positive change.
