About Yomaris
Yomaris Ramos Rivera is a bilingual Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Connecticut. She prefers to hold sessions in Spanish but also speaks English. She has eleven years of experience supporting people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, depression, bipolar disorder, and addictions.
She focuses on practical, down-to-earth help. She listens to each person's story and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions often include clear steps people can try between meetings to address daily struggles like sleep problems, low motivation, or managing strong emotions.
Her approach draws on a mix of methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. That means she works to help people notice what matters to them, change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, and improve emotional connection with others where relevant.
She also supports people dealing with relationship and family stress, grief, chronic illness and pain, parenting strain, attention difficulties like ADHD, and identity or body image concerns. She aims to make sessions practical and relatable so people can try things that fit their daily life.
Yomaris welcomes people who want a collaborative approach. She helps set goals together and adjusts methods based on how someone responds. If language matters, she can offer work in Spanish or English and can discuss next steps for starting therapy.
Approaches That Translate Well to Online Therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small actions toward those values. It is useful when anxiety, depression, or life changes make it hard to move forward. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors. It is helpful for anxiety, sleep trouble, low mood, and situations where changing daily habits matters. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) supports people in identifying and naming emotions and improving emotional connection, which can help with relationship stress and grief.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, try methods that fit the situation, and adjust based on what helps. That collaborative process lets methods be practical and person-focused rather than one-size-fits-all.
Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make scheduling easier and help therapy fit into busy lives, such as fitting a session around work or caregiving, reducing travel time, or allowing shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist about language preference, session length, and any other practical needs when you set up the first appointment.
