Almudena Ruiz Roman is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 27 years of practice. She speaks English and Spanish and offers therapy to people in Connecticut who want help with stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, anger, and depression.

Sessions focus on real-life problems like panic attacks, mood struggles, grief, and substance use. The therapist aims to be genuine, open, and nonjudgmental in sessions.
Background and approach
With nearly three decades of experience, she has worked in multiple countries and brings that perspective to clinical work in Connecticut. Her background includes work with complex situations such as domestic violence, first responder issues, immigration concerns, and combined medical and mental health needs like chronic pain and illness.
Therapy sessions cover practical goals such as improving coping after trauma, reducing panic and phobias, addressing postpartum depression, and exploring midlife concerns or life purpose. She helps people talk through shame and guilt and supports recovery from drug and alcohol addiction. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and are delivered in several online formats.
People typically begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session that fits their needs. The focus is on collaborative problem solving and building skills that fit daily life.

Evidence-based approaches and online care
Almudena uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical methods to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. One common approach emphasizes building coping skills for anxiety and panic through structured exercises and gradual exposure to feared situations, which can lower avoidance and improve confidence. Another approach targets addiction and relapse by identifying triggers, strengthening coping strategies, and developing a step-by-step plan to manage cravings and maintain recovery.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and the problems you want to address, then suggest options that match your needs. Together you can try a method, review progress, and adjust the plan so it fits how you live and what you want to change.
Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions allow for face-to-face work and skills practice, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or you need a shorter check-in, live chat supports quick exchanges during busy days, and messaging lets you reflect and respond on your own schedule. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or medical commitments while keeping regular momentum toward goals.
