About Barbara

Dr. Barbara Romfo is a West Virginia psychologist (WV Psychologist 956) with 34 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on common struggles such as anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma, anger, and the stress of life transitions. Sessions are grounded in practical conversation and evidence-informed approaches she uses in her work.

She often addresses issues tied to relationships, parenting, workplace strain, and women's concerns. Chronic pain, illness, and disability are also listed as areas she supports. Dr. Romfo notes attention to impulsivity, codependency, career questions, and questions about life purpose.

Her practice draws on Client-Centered methods, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and Motivational Interviewing. In session she listens first, then suggests skills and experiments people can try between visits. Progress is measured by what actually changes in daily life rather than labels alone.

She integrates her Christian perspective when clients request that context, and she uses it to help people explore values and meaning. That influence appears alongside practical tools for managing anger, cravings, mood, and stress. The tone is straightforward and focused on usable strategies.

People who come ready to talk about specific problems tend to get concrete plans to practice. Dr. Romfo asks about daily routines, relationships, and goals, and helps set small, achievable steps. If you prefer a direct, experienced clinician who balances listening with skill teaching, her approach may fit.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. It helps people clarify values, priorities, and what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and anger management.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with the client to decide which methods to try first based on current goals, symptoms, and personal preferences. That plan can change as sessions reveal what helps most in daily life.

The original biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into weekdays or work breaks and to keep check-ins shorter when needed. They also let people practice skills between sessions in the settings where problems occur, which can speed up learning and make exercises more relevant to real situations.
