Hi I’m Tristan Blacha. I’m a Registered Psychotherapist.
I am currently utilizing Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and Emotionally Focused Therapy with my clients which are evidence-based modalites with foundations in bonding and attachment research. I regard each person as inherently valuable, unique, and as having the potential for greater fullness of living. I believe being able to form a real connection where one feels genuinely heard and understood can be healing.
I believe I can provide certain unique benefits, particularly through the mindset of psychological flexibility (as referred to in the mindfulness tradition), thus I am curious and open to understand you, I am meticulous and don’t jump to conclusions or make assumptions.
Additionally, you will get the benefit of two practitioners for the time and price of one. My supervisor, Dr. Michael D. Blacha is a Registered Psychologist of 40+ years and will be overseeing our work on a regular basis and you will be getting his input, without having to pay him for it. -I am passionate about empowering you and co-facilitating, rather than taking an expert stance in our relationship.
I believe you know yourself best. My goal as a therapist is to create a trusting relationship with clients to facilitate positive change.
