About Tristine
Tristine Barry is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who uses a calm, practical approach to help people manage intense emotions. She focuses on building coping skills for stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, and related concerns. Sessions are grounded in real tools rather than long theory talks.
Tristine draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, and mindfulness practices to help clients notice patterns and make small changes.
Background and approach
She emphasizes strengths and offers step-by-step strategies for daily life. That often means learning simple breathwork, grounding exercises, or thought‑tracking to reduce reactivity. Her work also addresses trauma, chronic pain, grief, ADHD, mood struggles, and relationship or family-of-origin issues.
She uses motivational interviewing to explore readiness for change and to help people set achievable goals. The aim is clearer choices and more manageable routines. Tristine integrates somatic coping methods such as gentle body-based exercises and tapping alongside talk therapy.
She also suggests apps and online tools when they help practice skills between sessions. This keeps progress steady outside the appointment. People who want straightforward guidance and a practical plan may find her style helpful.
She supports people through transitions like career changes, separation, or major life stressors. Tristine brings 11 years of clinical experience to her work in Florida as an LMHC.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It is useful for stress, anxiety, anger, and life transitions by focusing on what matters and small steps toward it. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and then changing them with practical exercises. CBT is helpful for worry, low mood, sleep troubles, and habit changes. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm in daily life. It supports emotional regulation and can be paired with other approaches.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, past strategies, and preferences, and then try methods that fit. Adjustments are made as needed so the work stays relevant and manageable for the client.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and skills demonstration. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone needs a discreet check-in. Live chat and text messaging work well for quick check-ins, homework support, or brief emotional relief between longer sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy schedules and keep progress moving forward.
