Felicia Roark, LICSW

Felicia Roark is a licensed independent clinical social worker (LICSW) who helps people coping with stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, and life changes. She takes a straightforward, warm approach so conversations stay grounded and useful. She centers each session on the person's strengths and real needs. Felicia practices in West Virginia and uses short, practical tools that clients can try between sessions. She focuses on spotting unhelpful patterns, building coping skills, and working toward changes that match a person's values. Sessions are collaborative and paced to what feels manageable. Her style is direct but compassionate. She uses evidence-based techniques such as cognitive behavioral strategies, strengths-based work, and mindfulness-informed practices to address day-to-day struggles. These methods are tailored to each person rather than used the same way for everyone. Felicia has six years of clinical experience providing care in both in-person and telehealth settings. That experience informs how she helps people build routines and habits that fit their lives. She aims for practical steps that make symptoms easier to handle over time. When someone reaches out, Felicia works alongside them to set goals and measure progress. She prioritizes clear communication and practical exercises so people leave sessions with something to try that week. Her goal is steady, meaningful change rather than quick fixes.

Evidence-based techniques for online care

Felicia uses cognitive behavioral strategies to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. These techniques break problems into small steps so coping skills can be practiced in daily life. She also uses strengths-based methods to identify personal resources and build on what already works for a person. That approach helps people find realistic ways to reach goals. Mindfulness-informed practices are included to teach simple attention and breathing exercises that reduce stress and improve emotional awareness.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Felicia collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts tools and homework to keep progress practical and achievable.

The biography describes experience with telehealth, which can make scheduling easier and reduce travel time. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online work can help fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people try techniques in their everyday routines.
