About Carmen

Carmen Ramos Bolivar helps people facing relationship strains, anxiety and stress, grief and loss, low self-esteem, and issues with sleep. She also supports people dealing with parenting challenges, anger, trauma and abuse, and major life changes. Carmen works in both English and Spanish and practises in the United Kingdom.

She approaches therapy as a collaborative process. Carmen sees the person first, then the difficulty. Sessions focus on simple, practical steps that can be tried between meetings.

Background and approach

She uses a mix of methods to match each person’s needs rather than one fixed recipe. Over six years she has worked with people who bring problems linked to attachment, abandonment, chronic illness or pain, codependency and family of origin issues.

She also helps with communication problems, divorce and separation, infidelity and jealousy, and the guilt or shame that often follows painful events. Carmen draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, client-centred work and mindfulness. That means sessions can include noticing unhelpful patterns, trying practical experiments, and building day-to-day habits that reduce distress.

The aim is clearer choices rather than quick fixes. Her tone is supportive and down-to-earth. She encourages people to use their own strengths and values to move forward.

To begin, people use the site’s matching process and then arrange a first session according to the therapist’s schedule.

How Carmen works online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, grief and making difficult life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on practical steps to change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, which can help with depression, sleep problems and stress.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. Carmen will discuss what feels most useful and try different methods together. The therapist and client decide on priorities, goals and simple tasks to try between sessions so therapy fits real life.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Many people find online counselling easier to schedule around work, childcare or medical appointments. Others value being able to have a shorter check-in by phone or an on-screen session that removes travel time. Online sessions can make it simpler to keep momentum between meetings and to try exercises that fit into everyday routines.
