Deciding to take the next step and participate in therapy can be difficult—but it can also be one of the most rewarding choices you make, especially when you have someone who can hold space for you with care and compassion.

As a Black woman who was raised in a religious home, therapy was never presented as an option for Candace. Looking back, she now realizes that this was a significant missed opportunity. Life brings challenges at different stages, and no one should have to face them alone.

Candace would be honored to walk alongside you as you navigate life’s difficult moments. She believes in meeting clients where they are and working collaboratively through the healing process. She sees each person as unique and tailors therapy to best fit your needs—drawing from approaches such as Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Psychodynamic Theory.

With over six years of experience in the mental health field, Simmi is a compassionate, trauma-focused clinician dedicated to creating a client-centered, nonjudgmental space for healing and growth. She holds a Master’s degree in Military Psychology from Adler University and is trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

Simmi’s approach is rooted in trauma-informed care, ensuring clients feel safe, respected, and empowered. She has extensive experience working with trauma and PTSD, OCD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, ADHD, self-harm, and suicidal ideation.

In addition to EMDR, Simmi integrates CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and ACT to support meaningful, lasting change. Her goal is to help clients build self-awareness, regulate emotions, and strengthen relationships—with others and themselves.

Fluent in English, Hindi, and Punjabi, Simmi is committed to providing culturally sensitive care. She believes healing happens at your pace, in your own way, and is honored to support you on that journey.
