About Barbara

Dr. Barbara Romfo is a West Virginia psychologist with 34 years of clinical experience. She helps people facing depression, anxiety, addiction, and trauma. She also supports those dealing with chronic pain, workplace stress, and questions about life purpose.

Her work often includes women's issues and the challenges that come with parenting, grief, and relationship strain. Dr. Romfo integrates faith-based values into her practice when clients want that perspective. She aims to create a calm, steady space where people can think through next steps.

In sessions she focuses on practical skills and clearer thinking. She uses conversation to identify patterns that get in the way. Then she helps people try new ways of coping and responding to stressors.

Her background includes long experience responding to addiction and impulse problems. She also supports people managing chronic illness and disability and the emotions that come with those changes. Work on anger, self-esteem, and career concerns is offered in straightforward, goal-oriented sessions.

Dr. Romfo tailors each plan to the individual rather than following a single script. She blends supportive listening with tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. The aim is steady progress people can notice between visits.

Approaches you can use online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience so they feel heard and able to explore change. It helps people who need a respectful space to sort out feelings and choices.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, works by identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying alternative ways of thinking and acting. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions and reducing impulsive behaviors. It can help with anger, impulsivity, and coping during high-stress moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together the client and therapist choose methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video is useful for longer talks and visual cues. Phone calls require less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and messaging let people check in between sessions and use short updates or coaching when needed. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
