About Yvonne
If you’ve found your way here, something brought you — perhaps a desire to feel more grounded, a relationship you’d like to nurture, a new chapter you’re learning to navigate, or a part of yourself you’re ready to understand more deeply.
Whatever it is, you don’t have to figure it out alone. And you don’t have to explain yourself twice to be understood. Here, your languages, your experiences, and all the parts of your story are welcome.
I’m Yvonne Perez-Sallaberry, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT #150627) and bilingual psychotherapist practicing in English and Spanish. I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from The Wright Institute and bring over five years of clinical experience to my work with individuals and couples.
I practice from a warm, collaborative, and grounded place — meeting you where you are, moving at a pace that feels right for you, and working alongside you with genuine curiosity about your story, your strengths, and what meaningful change looks like for you.
My approach is evidence-based and deeply personal. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, and strengths-based practices — weaving together clinical tools with genuine human connection. I believe that lasting change happens not just through insight, but through feeling truly seen and supported in the process.
I also understand that culture shapes how we experience the world — our relationships, our bodies, our sense of self. As a bilingual therapist, I bring cultural attunement into every session, so you don’t have to translate who you are to be understood.
I specialize in working with individuals and couples navigating:
- Life transitions — navigating career changes, identity shifts, grief, divorce, and the turning points that shape who we’re becoming.
- ADHD — including executive function challenges, emotional regulation, and late diagnosis
- Anxiety and stress — navigating everyday pressures, life changes, and the unique experiences of moving between cultures, languages, and expectations.
- Couples and relationship challenges — communication breakdowns, conflict, intimacy, and reconnection
- Women’s health and perinatal mental health — compassionate support through pregnancy, postpartum, pregnancy loss, reproductive life transitions, and the unique pressures that can accompany being a professional or high-achieving woman.
- Trauma and PTSD — compassionate support for healing from childhood and relational trauma, processing difficult life experiences, and building a greater sense of safety, connection, and resilience.
I offer both in-person sessions (San Francisco) and virtual therapy throughout California.
“I came to this work with a deep belief in the transformative power of therapy when it is practiced with care, intention, and genuine connection. I’m especially passionate about supporting women and bilingual communities and creating a space where you can show up fully — in your own language, with your whole self, and without leaving any part of your story at the door.”
