Life does not slow down when we need it to. You may feel scattered, unworthy or uncertain. You have lost something or someone—or you live in fear of it happening. Pressure is building and coming at you from all directions, even yourself, and you can’t manage it all. Whatever challenge or chapter in life you are facing, you do not have to tackle it alone. This is your time to choose to slow down, to pause for yourself and what matters most to you. I can help you do that.

Quayla Simms

Quayla Simms

Therapist

Virtual • Ohio


Hi, I'm Quayla! I’m a licensed counselor based in Ohio, and I help adults who are ready to do meaningful work around healing, growth, and connection. My clinical style is warm, direct, and grounded in mutual respect. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all therapy—every client brings a unique story, and I’m here to help you make sense of yours in a way that feels empowering, not overwhelming. I work with people navigating the in-between spaces of life: the moments where things feel uncertain, stuck, or disconnected. That might look like struggling in a relationship, feeling the emotional weight of caregiving or parenting, sitting with unresolved family dynamics, or just trying to hold everything together while quietly burning out. Many of my clients are high-functioning and insightful, but still find themselves repeating old patterns or questioning their sense of self. I believe therapy should be both practical and transformative. I integrate evidence-based approaches like CBT and ACT with deeper relational and existential work to help clients reconnect with themselves and move forward with intention. Whether we’re exploring identity, navigating grief, or rebuilding emotional safety in relationships, I bring presence, perspective, and a sense of partnership into the room.
