Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Dr. Barbara Romfo draws on client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to help people work through emotional and behavioral challenges. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening respectfully, honoring each person's experience, and supporting self-directed growth - it can be especially helpful for relationship concerns, self-esteem, and life transitions. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) offers structured strategies to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and impulses.

She also integrates dialectical behavior therapy techniques when needed to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness for problems like impulsivity and intense emotional reactions. Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Dr. Romfo collaborates with each client to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences.

Online therapy with Dr. Romfo is offered by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility.
