Orlando Eating Disorder Therapist Tristin McDermott
Hi, I’m a Registered Mental Health Counseling Intern specializing in Trauma Counseling, Anxiety Therapy, and Eating Disorder Treatment in Orlando, FL. Learn more about how I can support your healing journey here!
You’re stuck and you feel alone. It’s hard to hold onto hope because the path forward feels so daunting.
It feels like you have no control like the pieces of your past and present are scattered and overwhelming. You know you want your life to be different, but the path forward feels unclear. You find yourself struggling with self-doubt and anxiety, second-guessing your every decision and feeling like you’re falling behind while everyone else seems to have it figured out.
You’ve tried to manage this on your own—journaling, self-care, podcasts, meditation—but it’s just not enough. No matter what you do, those nagging thoughts and overwhelming emotions keep creeping back in. You’re tired of the inner critic that tells you you’re not enough, the anxiety that keeps you stuck, and the exhaustion of trying to appear “okay” when you don’t feel that way inside.
You know this goes deeper than surface-level fixes. You’re looking for lasting healing, not just another temporary coping strategy.

Imagine what it would be like to feel grounded, confident, and at peace.
Together, we will create a path forward so that you feel safe in your body, realigned with your values, and empowered to navigate life’s challenges with confidence. Therapy isn’t about forcing yourself to be someone else—it’s about reconnecting with the strongest, most authentic version of yourself.
I not only believe in the healing power of therapy—I’ve experienced it. I know what it’s like to feel stuck, uncertain, and exhausted from trying to manage it all alone. That’s why I create a space where you can show up exactly as you are, without fear of judgment.
What is it Like to Work With me?
Clients describe me as warm, compassionate, and direct. I believe in balancing honest feedback with deep empathy, helping you challenge the patterns that hold you back while also feeling supported every step of the way.
I use evidence-based approaches such as EMDR, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to help clients move beyond overwhelm and distress into a place of calm, clarity, and self-trust. I also integrate somatic and mindfulness-based techniques, helping you feel more at home in your body and develop a sense of inner safety.
Therapy isn’t just about managing symptoms—it’s about learning to trust yourself again, knowing that you are fully capable of handling whatever comes your way.
The journey doesn’t have to be taken alone. Let’s take the first step together.
In our work together, we will untangle the narratives that no longer serve you, strengthen your sense of self, and reconnect you with the inner power that has always been within you. We’ll work at a pace that feels right for you, addressing the anxious thoughts and self-doubt that keep you stuck while also exploring what brings you a sense of calm and self-trust.
