Dr. Simrin Dhillon

Hello and welcome! I have been practicing for over 10 years and in that time my passion only increases for this work. I consider myself fortunate to connect with individuals and couples in order to help them improve the way the feel about themselves, enhance the quality of their relationships, and achieve the life they once imagined.  I understand that the demands of modern life increasingly necessitate managing multiple roles and stressors, but it also has numerous ways to distract and numb ourselves. It is easy to become disconnected from our relationships and ourselves, and lose sight of our values and goals. Engaging in therapy provides a unique opportunity to slow down, examine our emotional and behavioral patterns that may no longer be effective, and make more conscious choices about how to live. In a warm and respectful environment, I will help you define your goals and create a supportive and collaborative partnership that empowers you to achieve them.  

Common feedback I receive from clients is that they can’t believe how I can recall the details of their story from sessions past and feel listened to and understood in a way they haven’t experienced. And with this understanding, I’m able to help create solutions to problems they didn’t think were solvable.

I am a doctoral level psychologist who completed extensive training at Stanford University. My previous career was in the business and financial world, so I have a keen ability to connect with business professionals navigating the obstacles presented when in stressful positions and wanting to find a balance between the demands of one’s career and personal goals.  Some of my specialties include working with relationship and interpersonal concerns, feelings of anxiety and depression, self-doubt and insecurity, assertiveness training, parenting concerns, women’s issues, loss and life transitions. I use an integrative approach that incorporates cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, and solution-focused techniques. 

I’m committed to helping you receive the services best suited for you, so I am happy to discuss your circumstances to determine whether working together would be a good fit. Please feel free to contact me for a complimentary phone consultation.
