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.

Miles O’Brien
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-A
My approach is to meet you where you are with empathy and caring. To support you in life regardless of what you have been through. Regardless of if you hate yourself or love yourself or how stuck you feel. I hope to support you to reach your goals, and if I can't, to help you find someone who can.
This space is for you. What do you want to do? Who do you want to become? Whether all hope is lost or you just can't figure something out. Whether you have been diagnosed with a disorder, you just don't feel happy where you are, or you want to learn how to be healthier. My approach helps you become more of who you are and be whole again.

Dr. Roslyn Phenix
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, (Licensed Clinical Pastoral Counselor)
FaithWorks Christian and Family Counseling is a great practice because it is founded upon not only natural ways to help clients heal. This practice offers counseling from a Christian perspective. This means during session, I find ways to include God's Word. For example, upon client's comfortablility, I do offer prayer before and after each session. In session, I point client's to ways that they can receive their healing through making sure to include the wisdom of God in their everyday lives. My motto is that self care along with divine care makes for a prosperous life. When we have both of those things going for us, we can't go wrong. My approach is through the Word of God as well as through solution focused therapy. Solution focused therapy means that I am not the only one providing solutions to the problem. My clients have a hand in brainstorming ways they think they can improve their lives. Therefore, my practice is set up to partner with clients in their healing. My clients know we are in this together. My practice is also run on a negotiable fee scale. My fees are only $80 per session, but I cut that in half if the full price is unaffordable. I do not believe in breaking the bank for anyone, and I don't want people to feel that they can't enroll in therapy due to not being able to maintain the cost of it.

Sara Pesic
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC, CCTP
In years of practicing counseling and doing my own training and research, I have learned that besides knowing "Why" it is also important to know "How." I find many people knowing where their trauma or problem is coming from, but they are still not able to move forward and resolve the issue. My focus is on understanding the client's challenges and then helping them move forward with practical and manageable steps.
