I would love to talk at your next event.

Skyland Trail STEP Program was fortunate to have Nisha Patel talk to our families about the importance of practicing self-care, cultivating calmness, and minimizing stress in our daily lives. Nisha guided us through valuable and achievable set up ways we can meet our needs and make them a priority through practical and intentional action. She engaged participants and encouraged us to plan and implement self-care back into our lives.

Nisha Patel was a speaker on a mental health panel organized by Brown Women Health, and her impact was truly remarkable. Nisha’s empathetic and relatable approach created a safe and open space for meaningful discussions, allowing participants to deeply connect with her message. Her exceptional understanding of working with South Asian women, coupled with her cultural competency, further enhanced her expertise as a speaker and advocate in the field of mental health. In addition to her valuable insights, Nisha’s thoughtfulness, active listening skills, and kind demeanor make her an absolute joy to collaborate with.

Nisha Patel provided wonderful insight about mental health in the South Asian community. While using a combination of her training and experiences, she answered many different questions, including those relating to family dynamics, the model minority myth, neurodiversity, and mental well-being. She, along with the other panelists, fostered a comfortable and friendly environment, where they were all able to share their perspectives on the questions asked, while simultaneously bouncing ideas off of one another. Many of the points discussed created room for thought and reflection amongst attendees, sparking additional conversation. Nisha was amazing to work with and we loved hearing from her during the panel!

Nisha Patel's presentation was inspiring and exactly what our members needed. She was able to create an environment that felt safe. It allowed participants to get curious about their own needs and share it with the other group members. She not only provided helpful skills, but taught us how we can apply them in our daily lives without getting overwhelmed. The biggest takeaway for everyone was "We practice for progress, not perfection."
