Boisey Bristo

My name is Boisey Bristo, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional, and Certified Brain Injury Specialist based in Ft. Worth, Texas delivering services statewide using telehealth. I work with adolescents and adults specializing in anxiety disorders, mood disorders, stress and adjustment challenges, trauma, culture and diversity, and brain injury. My counseling philosophy is, “every journey begins with the first step.”

I take an integrated approach to meeting clients where they are, based on their individual needs. I've worked in the field since 2015. My primary therapeutic principles are grounded in Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, and Solution Focused strategies to help clients achieve insight and awareness, strengthen the mind-body connection, and establish a vision for wellness.

Most of my clients present with anxiety and depression. However, I have also worked with eating disorders, personality disorders, autism, substance abuse/addiction, and psychotic disorders. My focus is on helping the client achieve wellness through the process of acceptance and change.

My communication style is easy going, authentic, and empowering. I aim to create a safe and trusting therapeutic alliance with the client through compassion, empathy, active listening, and a non-judgmental approach.

Therapy is a process and requires commitment and a willingness to be vulnerable. I cannot promise you that you will heal from all wounds or achieve all the goals you set out to achieve, but I can assure you that I will stand by your side and provide you with honest and informed feedback and guidance, with your well-being at the center of all we do.
