About Yomaris
Yomaris Ramos Rivera is a bilingual Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Connecticut with 11 years of experience. She prefers to conduct sessions in Spanish while also working in English. Yomaris focuses on practical, everyday issues that affect parents and adults, including stress, anxiety, anger, sleep problems, and mood concerns such as bipolar disorder and depression.
She helps people build confidence and motivation by treating them as the expert of their own story.
Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and centered on each person's goals. Yomaris uses clear, down-to-earth language and practical steps so change feels manageable. Her work includes navigating relationship strain, communication problems, grief, and the stress that comes with caregiving or chronic illness.
Parenting is one of the topics she addresses, helping parents manage the emotional overload and find clearer, calmer routines. Yomaris draws on methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try small experiments. She also uses Client-Centered and Emotionally-Focused approaches to focus on feelings and strengthen connection to values.
She offers sessions in English and Spanish and accepts international clients. Yomaris aims to make starting therapy straightforward: complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session that fits your routine. Her style suits people who want practical tools plus supportive listening.

Approaches that guide online parenting and life work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what truly matters to them and take small committed steps toward those values even when emotions are difficult. ACT can be useful for managing anxiety, low motivation, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns through practical exercises and experiments. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress management.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Yomaris will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and then suggest ways of working that fit those needs. That collaborative process means methods may be blended or adjusted over time so sessions stay useful and relevant.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more accessible. Video lets people use visual cues for emotional work, phone can be a simple check-in when bandwidth is limited, and messaging supports brief updates or ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules and handle follow-up between meetings.
