About Yomaris

Yomaris Ramos Rivera is a bilingual Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Connecticut who brings 11 years of clinical experience to her work.

Background and approach

She primarily conducts sessions in Spanish while also offering services in English, and she draws on a range of evidence-informed methods to address concerns such as stress, anxiety, anger, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, depression, addictions, relationship and family issues, trauma, grief, sleep difficulties, parenting challenges, career transitions, coping with life changes, and ADHD.

Her practice emphasizes the client's own knowledge and strengths, treating each person as the expert in their story while offering guidance and therapeutic skills. Yomaris uses collaborative techniques that promote motivation, build confidence, and support emotional regulation.

She is comfortable working with a wide variety of additional concerns including attachment and abandonment issues, caregiver stress, chronic pain and illness, codependency, communication and control problems, dissociation, and disruptions related to mood and personality.

Prospective clients can expect an encouraging, respectful approach that honors cultural and linguistic needs, and that aims to help them take practical steps toward their goals.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take meaningful action even when difficult thoughts and feelings are present; it is useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is centered on understanding and reshaping emotional responses and attachment patterns, which can benefit relationship and family concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and the therapist partners with clients to determine which methods fit best based on their goals, preferences, and progress. This collaborative process may combine elements from different models to address complex or overlapping concerns such as mood disorders, trauma, or ADHD-related challenges.

Online therapy offers flexible access through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy lives or across time zones. These formats support ongoing skill practice, check-ins between sessions, and care that adapts to each person's schedule and communication style.
