Tristine Barry, LMHC
About me
I am a mental health counselor, licensed in Florida with 10 years experience successfully treating clients with various concerns including addictions, anxiety and stress-related conditions, relationship issues, career challenges, panic, and ADHD. I have treated those with emotional and physical trauma as well, in addition to chronic pain. I focus on your strengths and provide solutions based on your needs.
With a calm demeanor, listening ear, and intuitive nature, my therapy style is to offer a customized approach with guidance, validation, and empowerment. I interactively teach resilience by sharing somatic (mind/body) coping skills (polyvagal, tapping, mindfulness) to adapt to life’s trials. Other treatments include cognitive-behavioral and ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), which combines CBT and mindfulness-simply living in the present moment. I offer the use of technology, apps, and online resources to create a full experience of growth and change.
If you are ready to take the first step to finding hope, I will be your best cheerleader! I am here to support you and look forward to partnering in your journey for your best life possible

I didn't really pick her, I know that doesn't sound promising but honestly it wasn't up to me who I needed but up to Him. And with that being said, she has been an answer to prayer even though I'm fighting through it, God is more powerful then you and I can possible know. She is right on with what I need and how I need it and I believe fully that she is a God send.
