Yomaris Ramos Rivera, LPC

Yomaris Ramos Rivera is a bilingual licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Connecticut. She brings 11 years of clinical experience and offers sessions in both Spanish and English, with a preference for Spanish. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and the daily struggles that make life feel overwhelming.

She centers sessions on what each person already knows about their life. Conversations are practical and grounded. She listens to your story, points out strengths, and helps create steps you can try between meetings.

Her work commonly addresses depression, bipolar concerns, addictions, sleep trouble, and grief, along with relationship and communication problems. She also supports people dealing with caregiver stress, chronic illness, body image, and issues tied to attachment and abandonment.

Therapeutic methods include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), client-centered therapy, emotionally-focused therapy (EFT), and motivational interviewing. These approaches are used to build coping skills, change unhelpful patterns, and clarify values.

Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to suit different needs. International clients can be seen. Starting is a simple process of completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that works for you.

How therapeutic approaches fit into online care

Yomaris commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy in her online practice. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with more effective actions and coping strategies; it is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and habit change. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values, accept difficult emotions, and commit to value-driven actions to move forward when life feels stuck.

She approaches treatment as a collaboration. Together the client and therapist will review concerns, try methods that match personal goals, and adjust the approach if something feels off. Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the process and decisions are made with the client’s input.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video works well for deeper conversational work and skill-building, phone calls are useful when bandwidth or camera use is limited, live chat can be a shorter way to check in, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options let people fit sessions around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping continuity with their therapist.
