Our story
At simply sukham, we have one mission: to reinstate the heart of mental healthcare– empathy.
We started off as two jain girls, accustomed to the hustle-bustle of our daily lives. raised in first-generation families, we filled many roles: translators for our family members, mediators of tense discussions, & overall advocates for our community.
As children, we thought nothing of these moments & simply accepted them as a part of life. however, we grew to realize that these seemingly insignificant experiences signified a major deficit in cultural awareness & education.
Racial disparities in mental health challenges, services, & treatment remain prevalent. the simply sukham initiative works to fill these gaps, providing culturally competent resources to historically underserved communities. we strive to make a lasting impact, placing dharmic principles of empathy & compassion above all else.
