Renewed Life Solutions
Licensed Professional Counselor, Tonya Ramsey, MS., LPC, NCC, CCTP
As a licensed professional counselor and a proud retired Navy veteran, my heart is deeply invested in empowering individuals like you to navigate life's challenges with confidence and resilience. I understand that many people face critical mental health issues without the guidance and support they need, often held back by stigma or simple unawareness. It’s my belief that effective mental health management not only clarifies your path but also transforms your dreams into achievable goals, paving the way for a fulfilling and enriched life. By choosing to work with a compassionate and relatable therapist like me, you’re taking a courageous first step toward healing and self-discovery.
With years of experience connecting with clients of all ages and diverse backgrounds, I warmly welcome the unique complexities that each person brings to our work together. My practice is not defined by a single specialty; rather, it focuses on understanding the intricate details of your experiences. My mission is rooted in compassion, expertise, and a deep commitment to walking alongside you on your wellness journey.
I know that feeling misunderstood or isolated in your struggles is all too common, but in our sessions, you’ll find an empathetic professional who listens with genuine care and understanding. Together, we’ll create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can express yourself freely and explore what’s on your mind. I also believe that a sprinkle of laughter can be a powerful healing tool, so I’ll bring moments of levity into our time together, helping to ease your journey toward a more stable and satisfying life—all without any extra costs. Together, we’ll unlock your true potential and work toward creating a brighter, more hopeful future.

Nicole Hammond Crowden
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, PhD,LCSW-BACS
I have been a social worker for over 18 years and have had the opportunity to work in a variety of areas. However, the last 8 years have been dedicated solely to mental and behavioral health as well as issues related to gender and sexuality. Whether its a person , couple, partnership or family, the issues are identified and together we work towards practical goals that will provide each individual with what they need in order to function. I have developed a style that combines a variety of techniques and treatment modalities. I understand that no two people are the same even if the circumstances appear similar. Therefore, my services are specific to you and are customized to fit your needs. Contrary to what you may believe or heard, you don't need a label or diagnoses to talk with a therapist or a counselor. You may need professional guidance to manage stress, need to modify your parenting style, adjust to life transitions or develop self awareness. I am attentive and available to listen. Just give me a call.

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.

Kate E. Stephenson
Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
Have you made time and space for you today? Most of us haven't—and therapy isn't the only way to do it. Consider Holistic Life Coaching instead. As a certified professional coach, I am here to encourage you to take a breath, take a beat to consider who you are, where you are, and if you are feeling satisfaction in your own success. If you aren't, I invite you to have a conversation with yourself about what can be done differently—allow me to moderate that conversation. Together we can help you live into your own definition of success and begin to feel it deeply. To breathe it in and live.
