About Barbara
Dr. Barbara Romfo is a licensed psychologist in West Virginia with 34 years of professional experience. She helps people facing depression, anxiety, addiction, and trauma.
Her practice also supports those adjusting to major life changes and people navigating grief and parenting stress. Dr. Romfo works with concerns such as anger, low self-esteem, career transitions, and attention-deficit challenges.
She has particular experience with chronic pain, illness, disability, workplace issues, and women's issues.
Background and approach
She combines practical strategies with empathic listening in each session. Her approach draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral techniques. Sessions often focus on understanding feelings, spotting unhelpful thinking patterns, and trying new ways of reacting to stress.
She also uses elements of dialectical behavior therapy and motivational interviewing when they fit a client's goals. People can expect a calm, steady presence and a focus on realistic steps forward. Dr.
Romfo emphasizes discovering personal values and building coping skills that fit daily life. Over time she helps clients test small changes and notice what works. Work is tailored to the individual rather than a single method.
Conversations explore immediate problems and longer-term patterns. This gives room for both short-term problem solving and deeper personal growth.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people understand and reorganize emotional responses that keep them stuck. In online sessions this can mean naming core feelings and practicing new ways of responding during conversation and reflection.Client-Centered Therapy focuses on a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship. The therapist listens closely and follows the client’s pace, helping people feel heard and more capable of making changes.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts affect feelings and behavior. Online CBT often includes identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing them, and trying small behavior changes between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dr. Romfo will discuss options and collaborate with each person to match methods to goals and preferences. That way sessions remain focused on what the individual needs to achieve.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls provide face-to-face interaction, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule while using the approaches that feel most helpful.
