Who we are.
DulceSalado is a holistic therapy practice focused on balance, healing, and connection. Inspired by the harmony between lo dulce and lo salado, our approach embraces both softness and strength as essential parts of growth.
We work with individuals and families to explore emotional well-being through a culturally responsive and whole-person lens. Our care is grounded, compassionate, and intentional, creating space for clarity, resilience, and transformation.
Healing begins when we honor the full story.
Alejandra ĕ Yvonne
We are native Spanish-speaking clinical social workers with more than 10 years of experience with training in trauma, crisis Intervention and family systems.
For more than a decade, we have dedicated our career and education to address intergenerational trauma and parenting struggles.
We started DulceSalado out of frustration with the lack of culturally sensitive and innovative approaches
to mental health and wellness services.
We at DulceSalado share our real-life experiences
as women, business partners, and mothers who strive
to balance work and family life.
