About Tristine
Tristine Barry is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, FL LMHC, with 11 years of experience. She sees people dealing with anxiety, stress, addictions, relationship and career challenges, ADHD, trauma, chronic pain, grief, sleep and eating concerns, and anger among other issues.
She emphasizes strengths and practical solutions. Sessions focus on skills people can use right away. She teaches mind-body coping tools such as grounding, mindfulness, and simple somatic techniques to reduce reactivity and increase calm. Cognitive-behavioral strategies and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas are woven into sessions to address thoughts and behavior patterns.
Her style centers on listening closely and offering straightforward guidance. Clients are taught coping skills step by step, including brief exercises to practice between meetings. Technology and apps may be suggested to track progress and reinforce new habits.
Tristine uses motivation-focused techniques when people are ready to change. That can help with addictions, stuck routines, or making practical shifts at work and home. She also addresses deeper themes like attachment, abandonment, and family of origin issues when they relate to current struggles.
Sessions are aimed at building resilience through repeated practice rather than promises. People come away with clear tools for managing anger, reducing anxiety, and handling life transitions. To begin, clients follow the site process to match and schedule their first session.
Approaches used online and how they help
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts without getting caught in them and focus on actions that match their values. It’s useful when strong feelings like anger or anxiety get in the way of what a person wants to do. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful patterns. That can help with panic, procrastination, sleep, and reactivity.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with clients to pick methods that fit their goals and everyday life. That means adjusting techniques, pacing, and homework based on what actually helps the person make small changes over time.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter focused check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also allow the therapist to suggest apps and digital tools to support practice between meetings, so skills learned in sessions can carry into daily routines.
