About Yomaris

Yomaris Ramos Rivera is a bilingual Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Connecticut. She brings 11 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and mood concerns. She typically prefers to conduct sessions in Spanish and is also comfortable working in English.

Her style is straightforward and respectful. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions focus on practical steps clients can use between meetings, and on small changes that add up over time.

Yomaris uses a mix of therapy approaches to meet different needs. She draws on cognitive behavioral methods to notice and shift unhelpful thinking patterns. She also uses acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify values and commit to meaningful actions. Emotionally focused and client-centered ways of working help her stay attuned to feelings and what matters most to the client.

She has worked with people facing depression, bipolar symptoms, addictions, grief, sleep difficulties, and relationship or family stress. She also supports those coping with life changes, parenting strain, and attention-related concerns such as ADHD. Her practice includes a range of additional focuses like attachment struggles, chronic illness, and communication problems.

Yomaris aims to make starting therapy simple. She encourages small, steady steps and partners with clients to set goals that feel doable. Her bilingual approach helps Spanish- and English-speaking clients connect and move forward.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Yomaris uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice patterns of thinking that lead to distress and to test new ways of thinking and acting. CBT often focuses on small, concrete experiments that change how someone reacts to stress and mood shifts.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps clients clarify what matters to them and take steps toward those values even when uncomfortable feelings appear. ACT is useful for stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and life transitions. Her client-centered stance keeps the work grounded in each person's experience and priorities.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and daily routine. That collaboration means techniques can be adjusted over time if something isn’t working.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten commute time, and allow flexible check-ins when schedules shift. It can also make it simpler to continue care across moves or when managing health or family demands.
