Felicia Roark, LICSW

Felicia Roark is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) who supports people navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and substance use. She practices from a person-centered, collaborative perspective that honors each individual s strengths and insight into their own healing journey.

Her style is warm and direct, with an emphasis on practical tools that can be woven into everyday routines. She draws on evidence-based approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), strengths-based therapy, and mindfulness-informed strategies, and adapts treatment to meet each person where they are in the moment.

Her work addresses symptom relief while also helping individuals recognize patterns, strengthen coping skills, and move toward meaningful change that aligns with their values and goals.

Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Therapy

Felicia Roark commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), strengths-based therapy, and mindfulness-informed strategies. CBT helps people identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it a practical option for anxiety and depression. Strengths-based therapy centers on a person s existing resources and capacities to support recovery and adaptation during life changes or when addressing substance use. Mindfulness-informed strategies teach present-moment awareness and simple practices to reduce reactivity and improve everyday coping with stress.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. She works collaboratively with each person - considering goals, preferences, and practical needs to tailor methods. Licensed professionals and therapists often combine techniques, and Felicia guides clients in determining the best fit for their situation.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility and accessibility for people with varied schedules. These options make it easier to maintain consistent follow-up, check in between sessions, and practice skills in real-life contexts without the need to travel, supporting continuity of care and day-to-day application of therapeutic tools.
