Pattie Vargas
Counselor/Therapist, CBC®️Certified Provider, Kessler Certified Grief Educator
After facing the heart-wrenching challenges of having two of my three children struggle with Substance Use Disorder, my world was further shaken when my son, Joel, lost his decades-long battle with the disease in 2017. In the wake of this profound loss, I was determined to better understand the family experience of addiction, and have since used this lived experience to support and guide others who are navigating the isolating and stigmatizing road of addiction and loss.
As a Compassionate Bereavement Care®️ Certified Provider and Kessler Certified Grief Educator, I work with individuals, families, and communities impacted by loss. I am a Peer Parent Coach with the Partnership to End Addiction, and co-facilitate their online grief support community, and is the host of Finding Hope After Loss, Grief Support groups for The Happier Life Project. As an advocate for recovery policies, I am a California State Organizer with the Recovery Advocacy Project, serve on the RCO/RCC Advisory Committee, and was named the 2022 Architect of Recovery by CCAPP (CA Consortium of Addiction Professionals.) My book, Secrets, Scars and Heart Shaped Jars, shares my family’s journey through addiction, loss and recovery.

Monica M. Huston
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Hi, my name is Monica Huston. I feel genuinely driven to help individuals, couples, and families work through the challenges that can feel overwhelming or hard to make sense of on your own.
My approach to therapy is thoughtful and grounded in understanding what’s beneath the surface. I pay close attention to patterns, relationships, and the ways past experiences continue to shape the present. I aim to create a space that feels both steady and honest—where you can slow down, explore what’s really going on, and begin to experience yourself and your relationships differently over time.

Dr. Shelby Kittinger
Psychologist, PsyD
I believe therapy is most healing when it feels like an authentic relationship—one where curiosity, honesty, and courage can coexist. My role is to help you slow down enough to hear yourself, challenge you to notice old patterns that no longer serve you, and offer the scaffolding to create space for new ways of relating to yourself and others. I work collaboratively, with a balance of compassion and directness, to help you gain clarity about your needs and build a greater sense of agency in your life. Together, we work toward a kind of transformation that feels both deeply personal and sustainably real. Reach out to schedule a free 20 minute consultation call to see if we are a good fit for your therapy needs.

Sue De Santo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Have you ever felt like you were busy doing all the things you thought would bring you a happy life, yet felt alone and disconnected from yourself and others? These feelings are often when people turn to alcohol, drugs, food, shopping or relationships to try to create those feelings of happiness, contentment and joy. It can work for a short time however the key to moving forward is to understand the reasons we seek out these distractions. When we strengthen the relationship with ourselves, the outer world becomes much more balanced and fulfilling. In our work together, you’ll gain tools to care for your nervous system, set healthier boundaries, and create a more positive and sustainable way of living.

Fontana is an Inland Empire city whose economy has shifted from its Kaiser Steel past to one of the country's largest concentrations of warehouse and logistics work, with a predominantly Latino population and many families stretched by long commutes and shift schedules. Mental health needs include work-related stress and injury recovery, economic pressure, and demand for Spanish-language care that consistently outpaces supply. Kaiser Permanente's large Fontana medical campus and Inland Empire community providers anchor local access.
