    About Trista

    Trista Lalli is a licensed professional counselor in Pennsylvania with 12 years of experience. She uses a client-centered approach and helps people build on their own strengths to make changes they choose. Her style is open-minded and nonjudgmental, and she aims to create a calm place to begin talking about what feels hard.

    Trista supports people working through relationship concerns, parenting challenges, and the stress of life changes. She also helps with anxiety, depression, grief, anger, compassion fatigue, and low self-esteem. Sessions often focus on practical steps like creating routines, handling stress, and improving communication.

    Her methods draw from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy. She blends these approaches to match each person’s needs rather than using a single fixed method. This allows sessions to focus on small, achievable goals that fit day-to-day life.

    Trista has worked in a range of settings with adults and adolescents. That background informs hands-on strategies for managing mood and building healthier patterns. She describes the client as the expert of their own story and uses that perspective to shape the work together.

  1. Online approaches that emphasize change and collaboration

    Trista commonly uses motivational interviewing to help people clarify their reasons for change and build internal motivation. This approach involves open questions and reflective listening to support decisions about next steps. She also draws from cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns.

    She treats finding the right way of working as a team effort. The therapist will discuss goals, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust plans as needed. Clients are invited to give feedback so the work stays useful and relevant to their life.

    Confirm the specific session formats offered before booking since the original biography does not list formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require being on camera, depending on what the therapist offers. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises from motivational interviewing and CBT to remote sessions to focus on goal-setting, coping strategies, and building routines.
