Thavone Huinil-Phommavongsa
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW, CAADC, Certified Imago Relationship Therapist, Hypnotherapist
Do you feel stuck in repeating emotional or relationship patterns and insight alone hasn’t led to change, you’re not alone. Change happens when people feel safe, understood, and supported. My practice offers online therapy and hypnotherapy for individuals, couples, and families who want more than coping skills, who want deeper connection, emotional healing, and real change.
As a certified Imago Relationship Therapist, I guide you through difficult conversations in a safe, empathic, and structured way. Hypnotherapy is used when appropriate to help access deeper patterns and address root issues.

Kimberlee Zetocha Halverson
Psychologist, Ph.D, LP
I help people create more balance in their lives by learning when to pause, be present, and step out of the constant pressure of “what’s next.” Many individuals find themselves shaped by old patterns or past experiences that make it hard to move forward. My approach focuses on helping you ride the waves of life with greater resilience—navigating the unpredictable storms rather than feeling anchored in them. While we can’t prepare for every unexpected moment, we can build the tools and skills to manage whatever comes our way. Tides shift, storms pass, and calmer waters are possible.
I don’t believe in a one‑size‑fits‑all approach. I tailor treatment to your preferences, goals, schedule, and life circumstances. I also offer structured, evidence‑based therapies when a more guided path is helpful. With over 15 years of experience supporting individuals with a wide range of concerns, I bring both flexibility and clinical depth to the work we do together.
For more information, please visit my website. You’ll find a secure, private patient portal with built‑in video sessions, scheduling, communication, and payment options—all in one encrypted, easy‑to‑use platform, including a mobile app for added convenience.

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.

Jennifer Pudlo Therapy & Wellness Consulting
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LMFT
Seeking therapy is a courageous first step, and I know how important it is to find someone you feel comfortable trusting. My hope is that from our very first conversation, you'll experience a space where you can exhale, feel genuinely heard, and know that you don't have to carry life's challenges alone.
I believe meaningful change happens within the safety of a trusting therapeutic relationship. My approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative, combining evidence-based practices with deep respect for your unique story, strengths, and values. Rather than focusing only on symptoms, we'll work together to understand the patterns that have shaped your experiences and discover new ways of responding that promote lasting healing and growth.
I work with adults and couples navigating anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, betrayal and infidelity, trauma, infertility, postpartum challenges, perimenopause, grief, body image concerns, and major life transitions. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or simply ready for something to change, therapy can provide a place to gain clarity, strengthen resilience, and reconnect with yourself and the people who matter most.
Clients often tell me they appreciate having a therapist who is both compassionate and practical—someone who offers thoughtful guidance while creating space for reflection, insight, and meaningful change. My goal is not to tell you how to live your life, but to walk alongside you as you discover your own path toward greater peace, confidence, and connection.
If you're considering therapy, I invite you to reach out. Finding the right therapist matters, and I would be honored to learn more about your story, answer your questions, and help you determine whether we're a good fit. Even if you're unsure where to begin, you don't have to have it all figured out before taking that first step.
