About Carmen

Carmen Ramos Bolivar is a counsellor who helps people facing anxiety, stress, relationship problems, grief and low self-esteem. She supports those dealing with sleep difficulties, anger, parenting strain and major life changes. Carmen works in both English and Spanish and practises from the United Kingdom.

She believes the person knows their own story best. Her approach puts the client at the centre of sessions and aims to build on personal strengths. Clients can expect respectful listening and practical steps to try between meetings.

Over six years she has supported people with trauma and abuse, family issues and communication problems. She also works with concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, co-dependency and infidelity. Carmen uses a mix of methods including Client-Centred Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioural tools and mindfulness exercises.

Sessions focus on clear goals and everyday strategies. Conversations cover feelings, patterns and small experiments to change how things feel day to day. Carmen aims to help people notice what matters to them and practise ways of living that reflect those values.

Her BACP credential is shown as part of her professional details. If someone wants to begin, they will be asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a start time according to the therapist's availability.

How Carmen’s approaches fit with online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting conversation. It helps when someone needs time to reflect and be heard without pressure. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing difficult thoughts and choosing actions that reflect personal values; it is often used for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Carmen will talk with each person about their needs and goals and together they will try methods that feel most helpful. That collaborative process guides which tools and exercises to use in ongoing sessions.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to maintain continuity during stressful periods and to practise techniques between meetings. Session formats are not specified here, so please confirm the current options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals often adapt their methods for remote meetings to keep sessions focused and useful.
