Candida Tristan
Associate Professional Counselor, LPC AssociateMy clients want to be truly seen and understood. To be heard, before rushing to judgement. They may seem quiet, withdrawn or angry, but they have a lot of meaningful things to say.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a classic talk therapy technique that helps increase awareness of negative thinking in order to better handle challenging situations. In addition to helping those with mental health disorders (such as anxiety or depression), CBT is also helpful for anyone who is looking to learn how to manage stressful situations. Therapists that use CBT often have a structured program, which involves a set number of sessions. CBT is frequently paired with other treatments, such as medication, when necessary. Think this approach may be right for you? Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s CBT experts today.

My clients are women who are tired of constantly trying to prove themselves. They often are feeling frustrated and stuck with where they are in life. They’ve spent so much time meeting everyone’s needs and expectations that they have lost sight of who they are and what they truly want out of life. Some of my clients have even started to recognize that maybe the life they are living doesn't feel like their own because it isn't.

Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.

My clients are those that want to better themselves in some way, but are not quite sure what they want or how to get there. I love working with those that are making major life transitions, such as going to college, getting a new job, moving to a new location, changing a relationship status, etc. Sometimes when we feel stuck in a particular position, our potential gets stuck with us. I love working with eager folks that are ready to start confronting their anxieties in life.

Anxiety and trauma are a heavy burden, disconnecting us from our lives, loved ones, and even our sense of vitality and safety in our minds and bodies. To move past trauma and anxiety for good, we must foster safety in our lives, heal the source of our pain, and develop a felt sense of our own capacity to flourish. My practice is all about helping my clients through that process as a supportive companion and guide.
