Welcome
Hi, I’m Sandra Collantes, a licensed Mental Health Therapist. In a fast-paced world that often disconnects us from our emotions, needs, and inner wisdom, my role is to support you in returning to yourself.
Through compassionate guidance, I help clients cultivate self-awareness and build a more caring relationship with who they are — laying the foundation for true healing and lasting well-being.
Healing Through Connection
×´Therapy isn't about fixing you— it's about uncovering your inner strengths and learning how to move through life with greater self-compassion, clarity, and confidence.×´
My Approach
I believe that healing happens in the presence of understanding, trust, and genuine connection.
As a humanistic, person-centered therapist, I see each individual as inherently capable of growth, resilience, and self-discovery. My role is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your emotions, patterns, and relationships at your own. I am particularly passionate about attachment theory and how our early experiences shape the way we navigate both positive and challenging situations in life.
