Millianys Garcia
Counselor/Therapist, LMSW
I believe therapy should feel like a space where you can finally exhale. As a bilingual Spanish-speaking therapist, I understand the importance of feeling heard, respected, and truly understood. I place a strong emphasis on building a genuine therapeutic relationship from the beginning, because I believe meaningful change starts with trust. My clients have described me as warm, compassionate, understanding, and easy to talk to. I meet each person where they are without judgment and work alongside them to navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, life transitions, and the challenges that can sometimes feel overwhelming. If you’re ready to take that first step, I invite you to reach out. You don’t have to have everything figured out before starting therapy—you just need a safe place to begin.

Jamilet Calderon
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC-D
With over 14 years of clinical experience, I specialize in helping women and first-generation/Latina professionals break cycles of codependency, quiet perfectionism, and reclaim their identity. Many of my clients appear to have it all together on the outside, but internally face overwhelming cultural expectations, anxiety, and a loud inner critic. Together, we will work to restructure that inner critic, establish fierce boundaries, and foster a radical sense of self-love.

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.
