About Carmen
Carmen Gomez Abreu is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with 30 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, grief, parenting strain, and career concerns. Carmen also supports those coping with trauma, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and intimacy-related issues.
Clients can expect straightforward conversation and practical tools. She uses methods drawn from cognitive behavioral work, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-based thinking, and skills from dialectical behavior approaches. Sessions focus on clear goals, concrete strategies, and steps people can try between meetings.
Carmen brings specific attention to communication problems, commitment and control issues, codependency, and blended family challenges. She also addresses adoption and foster care topics, aging and caregiver stress, body image, and coping after disasters. Her practice includes support for LGBT concerns and issues around abandonment and attachment.
She works in both English and Spanish, which helps when cultural context matters to the conversation. Carmen describes her process as collaborative - she listens, identifies priorities, and helps people choose practical next steps that fit their daily lives.
Her longer experience means she has worked with a wide range of life challenges and complex situations. People who want a direct approach with an emphasis on skill-building and improved day-to-day functioning may find her style useful.
BHow sessions work
Therapeutic approaches for remote work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that reflect their values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on finding and testing unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors that keep problems going. It is practical for stress, mood difficulties, and relationship patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with the client to identify goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan if something does not fit. Clients and the therapist review progress and choose next steps based on what helps most.
Confirm current session options before booking to know the exact online formats offered. Online work can make scheduling easier and help fit therapy into a busy week. It can also allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, reduce the need to travel, and make it easier to maintain continuity during life transitions. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and skills practice to remote sessions so the work stays focused and practical.
