Our Team

Care shaped by relationship, balance, and connection.

Parhelia Wellness was created by us as a couple, shaped by how we think about health, well-being, and balance in our own lives, our family, and the community we are part of.

We built this practice to support thoughtful, connected care with space for time, flexibility, direct communication, and the opportunity to continue working with the same people involved in your care over time.

Jessica Clifton, PhD

Licensed Clinical Psychologist

I’m a licensed clinical psychologist with a background in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), mindfulness-based, and mind-body approaches to care.

I work with adults navigating stress, life transitions, hormonal changes, chronic pain, fertility challenges, and mood concerns. My approach is collaborative, grounded, and focused on helping people move forward in ways that feel aligned with their values and goals.

Alongside my clinical work, I consult on research projects focused on mental health, patient engagement, and health equity. Some of the most meaningful work I’ve done has been in partnership with patient partners with lived experience—helping ensure that research reflects the perspectives of those it is intended to serve. That collaboration shapes how I approach research and care.

I earned my PhD in Clinical Psychology from the University of Vermont and completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the Larner College of Medicine, University of Vermont. I’m licensed in California and Vermont to provide telehealth services to adults in both states.

Outside of work, I strive to spend my time outdoors or connecting with others—whether that’s skiing, trail running, volunteering in the community, coaching youth sports, or simply being with my family.

Garyn Worrall, MD

Board-Certified Family Medicine Physician

I’m a board-certified family medicine physician with training in integrative and lifestyle medicine.

I work with adults navigating common health concerns like stress, fatigue, mood changes, and hormonal shifts. My goal is to offer clear, practical guidance that fits your life and aligns with your values.

Before medicine, I spent over a decade in business and data systems, leading teams in sales operations, analytics, and program planning. That experience continues to shape how I think about health, work, and decision-making—and it gives me a unique perspective when working with patients balancing busy lives.

Through telehealth visits, I provide focused, short-term support: helping you understand symptoms, review lab results, and decide on next steps. I’ve contributed to health research projects, particularly in data analysis and quality improvement, and I enjoy supporting physicians who are early in their training or exploring new ways of working.

Outside of work, I spend time with my family, coach youth skiing and softball, and try to be outdoors as much as possible.
