Professional statement

With 15 years of experience as a New York Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Sally Collins, LMFT specializes in guiding individuals, couples, and families through periods of significant internal and external turbulence. Whether clients are navigating profound relationship distress or feeling overwhelmed by the complexities of life, Sally's approach is designed to provide both immediate relief and long-term resilience.

She integrates evidence-based modalities—including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), DBT, and the Gottman Methods—with somatic, narrative and attachment-based perspectives to treat depression, anxiety, ADHD, complex trauma, and BPD. As a clinician, Sally is warm, active, and deeply curious. Sally Collins favors a purpose-driven approach; rather than engaging in unstructured conversation, she focuses on meaningful clinical progress. Once a client's unique situation is shared, Sally Collins provides clear, clinical recommendations. Together with the client, she builds a structured treatment plan rooted in their strengths, ensuring they have a practical roadmap to the life and relationships they envision.

Currently, Sally Collins offers remote telehealth sessions for individuals and couples on weekdays.


Message to clients

If you feel like you’re constantly bracing against the next wave of conflict or just barely keeping your head above water, you're likely feeling exhausted, confused, or hopeless. I want to show you that you aren't just at the mercy of the current; you are a vital part of your own system. Once you recognize your own power, you can take the helm of your life and dictate your own course, no matter how rough the waters get. Real change requires more than just talking about your problems—it requires a deep dive into the patterns that keep you stuck. In our work together, we won't shy away from the hard parts; we will lean into your resistance, uncovering the fears or habits that might be holding you back from the life you want.

My role is to be an engaged partner in your journey. We will examine your situation in its entirety—and specifically, the role you play within your larger systems, whether that's family, work, or social circles. This clarity is essential to determine how you can best thrive within your current circumstances, or build the courage to change them entirely.

You bring your honest, unfiltered story, and I will help open your mind to new perspectives and an empowering mindset. We will work together to cultivate equanimity, creativity, and intention, ensuring you always recognize what choices are possible so you can harness increased agency in any situation.
