I specialize in holding space for the deep-thinkers and cycle-breakers, the individuals who have spent a lifetime looking inward and dismantling generational patterns, yet still feel the friction of a world demanding 'more' at the expense of 'being.'

Supporting 20-Somethings Who Are Ready to Live Their Most Peace-Filled, Confident Lives Hey friend, I'm so glad you're here. My name is Devoney. If you're struggling with overthinking, replaying conversations in your mind & feeling like your brain is always going - I would love to support you. My work blends nervous system healing, healthy habits & mental wellness tools so you can get out of "anxiety mode" and start feeling more present, more calm & more confident. I teach yoga and deeply believe in taking a holistic approach to healing & living your best life. We'll check in on your movement, sleep, screen time. I blend evidence-based practices, mind/body tools, nervous system regulation and practical skills you can actually use in your everyday life so you can walk away from each session feeling like "oh that makes so much sense" and "I know exactly what I'm going to practice this week." My hope is that you'll know yourself better, why your body feels the way it does, and how to better love and care for yourself... so you can show up fully and unapologetically for your life!

My desire is to help you live a full life, to listen openly and without bias and to understand you outside of your problems; to help you see that you have strengths and resources that will help you get through this difficult time or the challenges you face.

It never ceases to amaze me just how often I have to try to convince others that they are worthy SIMPLY because they exist. This includes you! I want to know who communicated to you that you are not enough and why you value the opinion of said person(s); these types of harmful beliefs are learned, not innate. Let's unlearn them together.

I have worked in high-intensity and high-crisis environments from school to hospital settings.

Starting therapy can feel like a big step—especially if you’re not totally sure what to say or where to begin. My job is to make that part easier. I’m a licensed therapist who works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, burnout, low motivation, and feeling stuck or overwhelmed. Some clients come in with something specific going on, while others just know something feels off and want to figure it out. Both are completely welcome here. In our work together, we focus on what’s actually happening in your day-to-day life and how to create real, noticeable changes—not just talk in circles. I aim to keep sessions practical, collaborative, and grounded so you leave with clarity and a better sense of direction. Clients often tell me they appreciate having a space where they can be honest without feeling judged or analyzed. You don’t need to have the “right words” or a clear plan before starting—we’ll figure that out together. If you’re looking for therapy that feels straightforward, supportive, and focused on helping you move forward, I’d be glad to work with you.

As a supportive therapist, I fully assist clients to achieve empowerment and life of satisfaction.

Together we can discuss how therapy could benefit you and/or your family.

My name is Patricia Pasillas (LCSW) and I'm a first generation Latina located here in the heart of Southern California. Throughout the last 17 years of my career as a licensed clinical social worker I've build a solid reputation for not only breaking down the barriers within society but it's my eagerness to help open the doors for others that truly separates me from others in this line of work.

Hi, I’m Vanda Kim, LCSW, a licensed clinical social worker based in California. I have worked in the mental health field for over 17 years. My experience includes working in medical, school, and private practice settings, where I’ve had the privilege of supporting individuals through many of life’s challenges. I’m passionate about building genuine connections with people from diverse cultural and personal backgrounds and deeply value the unique stories and perspectives each person brings to therapy.
