Adamina Camacho, LMFT

Adamina Camacho is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with 17 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, family conflict, and major life transitions. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish to meet diverse communication needs.

Adamina uses a collaborative, down-to-earth style. She listens first, then helps people spot unhelpful thinking and find practical steps forward. Her manner is calm and personable, which can make it easier to talk about difficult topics.

Her approach blends tools from several therapy styles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and change thought and behavior patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships. Mindfulness techniques support noticing emotions without getting overwhelmed.

Early sessions focus on understanding what matters most to the client and building clear, achievable goals. Treatment moves at a practical pace with concrete exercises and skills to practice between meetings. Progress is checked regularly so goals can be adjusted as needed.

Adamina offers telehealth sessions across California by video or phone, and also uses text-based messaging and live chat formats depending on scheduling. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire to get started and then schedules sessions according to availability.

Her work covers a wide range of concerns including attachment and abandonment issues, caregiver stress, communication problems, divorce and separation, gender dysphoria, guilt and shame, infidelity, midlife questions, and financial stress related to life changes.

Online therapy with practical skills and collaborative care

Adamina commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to guide online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression. DBT emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication for people who struggle with intense feelings.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a supportive space where people can set their own goals. Finding the right mix of techniques is a collaborative process. The therapist and client work together to decide which approaches fit the client’s needs, values, and goals as they track progress and adjust the plan.

Online sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different schedules and preferences. Video sessions help build rapport and allow visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a flexible check-in is needed. Messaging and live chat let clients send brief updates or use a shorter-format touchpoint between scheduled meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while using evidence-informed tools to address stress, relationships, and mood.
