Virlyn Collantes, MSW, RSW, is a seasoned mental health practitioner with dual registration as a Registered Social Worker in British Columbia and Ontario. With extensive experience in both inpatient and outpatient hospital settings across Chicago, San Diego, and Vancouver, I have honed my skills in diverse therapeutic environments. My background includes providing macro-level social work research and micro-level psychotherapy with Northwestern University’s Mothers & Babies Research Program addressing the maternal mental health of expectant mothers in hopes of preventing postpartum symptoms. Moreover, I have also worked in virtual health platforms through Employee Assistance Programs (EAP) mental health therapy before transitioning to private practice focused exclusively on psychotherapy for adults.

I offer specialized individual and couples therapy, addressing a wide range of concerns including relationship and marriage issues, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, prenatal/postpartum depression, life transitions, and personality disorders. My goal is to provide compassionate and effective support tailored to each client’s unique needs.
