Okay, so I deleted all my saves and mods and uninstalled then reinstalled the game. After which I quit Origin and tried to open the game via Finder. This time it loaded for a while before taking me back to Origin again. However, I did make a bit of an observation, in my Sims 4 folder there is an txt document labeled, "LastCrash.txt". Every time my game crashes the time of creation for the document updates to the current time. I tried reading the document but its all code. I'm not sure what to do.

Deleting saves and mods is not the same as trying a new clean Sims 4 folder. Please try the new Sims 4 folder. Full instructions on steps to follow here - https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-Mac/READ-FIRST-Sims-4-Mac-Help-Guides-and-Troubleshooting/m-p/4612394#M163

When you installed the game, and Origin, you would have been prompted to allow permission for the apps to access various folders on your Mac. Did you allow or disallow these? i think i did. But how would i check that.

Make sure Origin has access to Removable Drives (if your game is installed externally) and The Sims 4 has access to Removable Drives and the Documents folder. - @Bluebellflora IT WORKED THANK YOU!’
