About Felicia
Felicia Roark is a licensed independent clinical social worker who helps people managing stress, anxiety, substance use, depression, and big life changes. She works in a straightforward, warm manner and focuses on practical tools that can be used day to day. Her approach centers on collaboration and on recognizing each person's strengths.
She uses evidence-based techniques like cognitive behavioral methods and mindfulness-informed practices to translate ideas into actions. Sessions typically include clear strategies for coping, short exercises to practice between meetings, and conversations about what is working or not.
Background and approach
The aim is steady, manageable progress rather than quick fixes. Felicia adapts her work to fit where someone is in life. She will listen first, then co-create goals and steps that feel realistic.
Her tone is direct but empathetic, and she emphasizes building skills that people can return to when stress rises. With six years of clinical experience and a West Virginia LICSW, she has worked in telehealth settings and values flexibility in how care is delivered. That background informs how she structures remote sessions and follows up on progress.
People who choose her can expect a focus on identifying unhelpful patterns, strengthening coping skills, and pursuing changes that match personal values. The work is practical, collaborative, and paced to each persons needs.
Evidence-based approaches and online care
Felicia commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking. That approach breaks problems into smaller parts and teaches step-by-step skills to reduce anxiety and shift mood.She also works with mindfulness-informed strategies that teach simple awareness and breathing practices. Those techniques help calm the body and create space to choose reactions rather than react automatically.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. She will listen to your concerns, discuss options, and adapt methods to fit your goals and preferences. Together you can try different techniques and adjust the plan as needed.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you work face to face from wherever you are, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging can be used for quick check-ins or brief coaching between meetings. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and keep consistent progress over time.
