Cassandra Otoo

Cassandra Otoo

Therapist

Virtual • Illinois


I help people who have been carrying too much for too long. Whether you've been holding everything together for your family, pushing through grief or trauma, navigating the demands of parenthood, or simply feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges, you don't have to carry those burdens alone anymore.

I'm Cassandra Otoo-Robinson, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and the founder of Healing Out Loud PLLC. I created Healing Out Loud because I believe too many people suffer in silence until the weight of everything they're carrying begins to affect their mental, emotional, and physical well-being. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to show up for yourself at a pace that feels right for you.

I am especially passionate about supporting adolescents, women, parents and caregivers, and individuals navigating trauma, grief, divorce, major life transitions, and maternal mental health, including pregnancy, postpartum, and the emotional adjustments that often accompany parenthood. I also work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, anger, and family and relationship concerns.

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.
