Adamina Camacho , LMFT

Adamina Camacho is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 17 years of clinical experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, family conflict, and life changes. She offers services in both English and Spanish for people living in California.

Adamina uses a mix of practical methods to help people change unhelpful thinking and manage strong emotions. She often draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify thinking patterns and on mindfulness to build calm and focus. Dialectical behavior ideas and client-centered conversation help clients practice new ways of coping and communicating.

Her style is calm, personable, and straightforward. Sessions tend to be collaborative - she asks questions, listens, and helps set clear, achievable goals together with each person. The work is focused on steps people can use between sessions to make life feel more manageable.

Adamina has extensive experience helping people navigate family of origin issues, caregiver stress, commitment and communication problems, divorce and separation, and concerns around identity and gender. She also assists with feelings of guilt, abandonment, and questions about life purpose and midlife shifts.

Therapy is offered via telehealth across California. People join by choosing a subscription plan that can be canceled at any time and then scheduling video or phone sessions or using messaging options. The first phase of work is an assessment where priorities and practical goals are agreed on.

How her approaches work online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel heard and can explore their priorities. It helps with building self-awareness and identifying what matters most in day-to-day life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression. It offers clear, practical exercises to try between sessions to change thinking patterns and reactions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches emotion regulation and interpersonal skills and is useful when strong emotions and relationship tension get in the way of daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. She collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort. Together they review what is helping and adjust techniques over time so the plan stays useful and realistic.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules. Video calls let the therapist and client see nonverbal cues and build rapport. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging allow ongoing support between sessions and quick access to tools or reflections. These options provide flexibility for different days and needs while keeping the work focused and goal-oriented.
