Miss Virlyn Collantes

Registered Social Worker

A dedicated Registered Social Worker (RSW) Therapist with BC and ON. I offer Individual and Couples Therapy to BC and ON residents via virtual sessions. I aim to practice from a strength-based and evidence-based clinical approach.

About Me

I offer virtual individual and couples therapy for residents across British Columbia and Ontario. My practice is grounded in your strengths, helping you navigate challenges with evidence-based strategies. We’ll explore practical tools to foster effective communication and resilience. Clients find my collaborative approach supportive, creating a space where you feel truly heard. This blend of clinical insight and tailored support helps you move towards lasting positive change.

Approach

Guided by a strengths-focused, research-informed stance, I shape sessions to be practical and collaborative so you can try small changes between meetings. I meet through secure online appointments, offer conversation in English or Tagalog, and keep a steady, paced rhythm that balances reflection with skills practice. Work often weaves together mindfulness, focused cognitive exercises and problem-solving tailored to transitions, chronic illness, grief, relationship strain and burnout, with brief between-session tasks to build new habits. People seeking clarity and usable strategies often find this pace helpful.
