I feel she is very gifted and knowledgeable and she really truly is someone to work with someone that has anxiety and has had serious trauma. She is very patient and the way she works with you. It stays with you long after the conversation or long after the text message that you get. I feel very blessed to have her as my therapist.

Dr. Romfo is very skilled and uses her skill set and expertise to engage and collect useful information that will help in healing. It appears that she does want to help and she understands every one is different so a cookie style approach will not get the job done for everyone. She is good at listening and clarifying to make sure she understands what is being conveyed. She has good eye contact during video sessions and she uses a soft, empathic voice. Overall, I feel that she is a very talented and skilled therapist/ psychologist, and I’m happy to have her be my therapist.

Dr. Romfo has been an excellent person to have in my corner. She is always kind, open, and patient. With her, I feel like I have been able to make real progress with a number of interrelated issues and concerns. When I started with Dr. Romford, it was very hard for me to feel hopeful, but now I am working hard towards better living and achieving dreams I had stopped daring to even think about before. I rarely need a lot more than a safe space with a patient listener to unravel my thoughts and get the bottom of my issues, and for this Barbara can't be beat!
