About Barbara

Dr. Barbara Romfo is a West Virginia psychologist (WV Psychologist 956) with 34 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are coping with depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, and major life changes. She also addresses workplace stress, parenting concerns, chronic illness and pain, and issues linked to codependency and impulsivity.

Barbara draws on a mix of common-sense therapies to help people notice what keeps them stuck and try different strategies. Sessions focus on practical skills and clearer thinking so day-to-day problems feel more manageable. She also brings attention to values and life purpose when that fits a client's goals.

Her practice includes attention to women's issues and the ways workplace demands shape mood and behavior. People who live with chronic pain or long-term illness can work on coping tactics and emotional patterns that affect everyday life. Addiction and trauma are approached with structured techniques plus supportive listening.

Dr. Romfo reports that Christian principles inform her perspective when clients want that included. She helps clients translate those values into choices and routines that support recovery and better relationships. This is done without promises about outcomes and with an emphasis on practical steps.

Sessions aim to build skills such as emotion regulation, clearer communication, and healthier boundaries. For someone who tends to put others first, she can help identify people-pleasing patterns and practice saying no in ways that fit the person's values. To confirm current session options before booking, follow the site's scheduling flow.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people can find their own solutions. It is useful when someone needs a place to sort through feelings and make values-based choices.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and to try new behaviors for anxiety, depression, and trauma-related problems.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills. It can help when impulsivity, strong emotions, or relationship conflicts get in the way of daily life.

Finding the right approach is treated as a joint project. The therapist assesses needs, listens to personal goals, and recommends strategies that fit the person's situation. Clients and the therapist try methods and adjust as they learn what helps.

If you plan to use online sessions, confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also lets people use video or audio choices that match comfort and bandwidth so sessions feel practical for everyday life.
