The Villages, FL - Accepting clients in FL
Hello! I am Amy Lottes, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Florida and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Colorado. I am also a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC).
I have experience helping clients with depression, stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, relationship issues, trauma, and an array of other issues. My clients like working with me because they feel like we are having a conversation while addressing their issues and working toward their goals. They usually say this approach feels less clinical and intimidating, and as a result, end up making progress faster than they initially thought they would.
I view therapy as a process in which the client and therapist work together to determine goals and define success, as well as determine a process for maintaining success. Our work will be geared toward achieving a healthier, more balanced lifestyle.
I approach therapy from a cognitive-behavioral perspective, meaning thoughts and beliefs that are interfering with functioning need to be addressed and appropriately changed and/or reorganized for better mental health. I also employ methods from other theoretical approaches as needed and deemed useful.
It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey!

I am a licensed mental health counselor with over 20 years of experience working with diverse individuals in the community, private practice, and residential substance abuse treatment. Never in a million years did I ever think providing counseling to individuals, couples, families, and groups, would be the career to captivate my heart….but it is! My specialties are working with clients who may be suffering from traumatic incidents, substance abuse, various forms of anxiety (PTSD, stress disorders), depression, self-esteem, and gender identity.
Making the decision to receive any form of mental health counseling can be taxing, however, the results are often positive and rewarding. Learning to face your fears in a healthy and appropriate manner is a sign of growth and maturity. It is not an easy task. You will cry, laugh, and maybe feel a little uncomfortable at times. This is just the therapeutic process working to make you emotionally stronger.
*Please note that my preference for treatment sessions are individual and group therapy. However, I do provide a limited number of couples or family therapy sessions for special circumstances.

Hey there! I’m so glad you made it here. Seriously.
Welcome to Moment By Moment Counseling. I'm Robyn and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Orlando, Florida. I have over 7 years experience working in mental health. Four of those years have been in private practice.
Consider this...
Are you the one who everyone counts on? The “high-achiever,” the “strong friend,” the one who always finds a way but lately, you’ve been struggling to keep it all together? Or maybe you've been checking all the boxes and chasing goals, but you still hear that little voice telling you you're not good enough or not worthy?
Perhaps life just threw you a curveball — a breakup, a loss, a career shift — and now you're trying to figure out how to rebuild and get your life back on track.
Or maybe... you're simply looking for a brave, non-judgmental space to just be. To take the mask off, exhale and reassess your boundaries.
At Moment By Moment Counseling, I help my clients slow down, explore, and reconnect with themselves and with what truly matters. Whether you’re navigating big life transitions, dealing with self-doubt, or trying to make sense of the chaos around you, our goal is to support you in finding clarity and calm.
If this sounds like what you’ve been looking for, I invite you to reach out! Let’s talk about what’s been weighing on you, and how we can work together.

A little bit about me, my name is Amanda Chilleme, I am a Florida and North Carolina Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Master’s Certified Addiction professional. For the last 11 years I have been helping my clients identify intrinsically important goals, overcoming obstacles, and build the foundation for a better future. My specialty has been working with men and women struggling with both substance abuse and process or behavioral addictions; helping them to find the pathway to a life unencumbered. I also have years of experience treating clients with anxiety, depression, obsessive compulsive disorders, bereavement, trauma, attachment, and personality disorders.
As a clinician, I utilize a human focused approach. I am not here to tell you what you need to work on; you already know the “what”. As a clinician, it is my job to help you understand the “why”, and eventually, the “how” (to fix it, overcome it, or just plain throw it away). Your first session, is essentially a two-way interview; as I listen to your story/narrative, and the “rough draft” begins to unfold, WE as a team determine if, 1) I am the right therapist for you, and 2) If you are the right client for me. If we both agree to move forward from the first session, identifying your goals will be your first assignment; giving you the opportunity to do this, helps me to better see how you think and interpret your barriers (i.e. stress, anxiety, depression, relationships, etc.). I am your coach, teammate, and cheer leader! We will focus on one goal at a time.
Whether you are just starting this process, or you have been in it for a while, I encourage you to plant that mustard seed, and watch just how beautifully you can grow.

Our life path is full of ups and downs with unexpected twists and turns. We learn to develop a way of coping whether it is a positive or negative method to help deal with stressors or adapt to change. However, the majority of the time, we fall back on what we are accustomed to when dealing with a stressful situation or unexpected change; such as becoming confused, frustrated, emotional, withdrawing, angry, combative, or ignoring the situation and hoping the situation will just magically disappear or be resolved. Sometimes we need assistance to develop positive coping skills to deal with an unexpected changes or stressful situations.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families to overcome numerous challenges. Besides treating many mental health conditions, I have specialized training in treating anxiety, career, conflict, depression, grief, self-esteem, anger management, behavior issues, stress, trauma, substance abuse, and co-occurring disorder. My approach combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Person-Centered Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness, Solution Focus Brief Therapy, and Strength-based therapy.

Let me help you walk through those feelings, as scary as it might feel or sound. The path gets easier when we walk alongside others, and you are not alone. I utilize a cognitive behavioral approach, EFT - tapping to assist individuals and their loved ones make sense of their inner world. Emotions can be confusing, and sometimes there is no way of making sense of them. With CBT and EFT, I can assist you with processing and working through those challenging memories and emotions.

I am a licensed therapist in the sunshine state of Florida. I obtained a bachelor's degree in psychology and served for over ten years in the social services field, specializing in women and children victims of trauma, specifically in the area of domestic violence and sexual assault.
After completing a master's degree in Marriage & Family Therapy, in 2019, I have worked in private practice and non-for-profit organizations providing services to individuals, couples, and families, with an array of mental health and emotional issues ranging from depression, anxiety, infidelity, communication, self-esteem, family conflict, parenting, and ADHD.
Experiencing challenges could be overwhelming, draining, and lonely at times, which is why I believe that as a therapist the most important tool I can offer is being present and genuinely caring for the wellbeing of those seeking help. It is an honor for me to be invited to be part of someone's healing journey.

Life is complicated and we all must navigate through our bumps on the road. No matter how large or small our problems may seem to others, they affect us in many different ways.
My name is Nilda De la Fe and I’m a Florida licensed Mental Health Counselor. I earned my master's degree in Mental Health Counseling from Nova University and began my professional career immediately after graduation. My first job was at a physical rehabilitation hospital where I worked with individuals of all ages. These were patients in treatment for multiple conditions including spinal cord injuries, head injuries, strokes, multiple sclerosis, knee and hip replacements. This experience was the base from where I developed my theoretical framework. For the past 20+ years, I have worked with many individuals and families, each with their own unique challenges and views.
Your first session with me will be one of building rapport and getting to know each other better. During this first session, I want to be able to understand your situation and discuss some goals for the short and long term. I believe that psychotherapy is a two-way relationship where your feedback and collaboration is necessary for a successful outcome. I want you to be able to take from therapy more than just relief from your current situation. I want you to be equipped with skills you can use at other points in your life.
So, don’t wait any longer. Your journey towards emotional, psychological, and social well-being is just a step away.
