Care that is unhurried and deeply attentive.
Integrative psychiatry and psychotherapy for adults seeking deeper, whole-person care.
Many patients are not looking for a quick fix. They are looking for a physician who will slow down enough to understand the full picture.
A different kind of psychiatry: clinically rigorous, emotionally attuned, culturally aware, and rooted in the whole person.
Psychiatry that considers the medicine, the body, and the life you’re actually living.
We look carefully at the biological, emotional, relational, and lifestyle factors shaping how you feel — while keeping psychiatric medicine clear, careful, and clinically grounded.
Patients often come here because they want care that can hold complexity without reducing them to a checklist of symptoms.
Care options built around depth, fit, and continuity.
Care is structured to support an unhurried, attentive relationship with your psychiatrist, whether you are beginning with a consultation or continuing into longitudinal care.
Consultation
A thoughtful starting point to understand your needs, history, goals, and whether MENTE SANA is the right clinical fit.
Ongoing Care
Physician-led psychiatric care that may include medication management, integrative recommendations, and a more complete understanding of what is contributing to symptoms.
Direct Specialty Care
A relationship-centered model that allows for more continuity, clarity, and communication than traditional high-volume psychiatric care.
Direct Specialty Care, with clear and transparent fees.
MENTE SANA follows a Direct Specialty Care model: care is arranged directly between patient and physician, without insurance acting as the middleman. This allows for clearer communication, more thoughtful visits, and an unhurried relationship built around clinical fit and continuity.

Medicine matters. So does the person living inside the diagnosis.
A whole-person psychiatric model
MENTE SANA brings together psychiatric medicine, integrative thinking, and a therapeutic understanding of identity, culture, relationships, stress, and meaning.
The goal is not to replace medical care with wellness language. The goal is to practice psychiatry in a way that is medically serious and deeply human.
Dr. Maricela Tonie Beltran, physician founder of MENTE SANA.
A physician shaped by science, culture, advocacy, and lived experience.
Dr. Beltran’s approach reflects academic rigor, cultural awareness, and a deeply human understanding of what patients carry into the room.
Her path into medicine was shaped by resilience, service, and a commitment to caring for people whose stories are often more complex than a brief appointment can hold.
She brings together training in medicine, public health, psychiatry, and integrative / functional approaches to mental health. Her clinical lens considers the nervous system, medications, sleep, stress, hormones, relationships, culture, identity, and the realities of daily life.
Patients describe feeling heard, supported, and safe.
“From the very first appointment, I felt heard and supported.”
