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.

Lazy Lake, FL - Accepting clients in FL

I’m not your typical therapist—and that’s intentional. You won’t find me in a blazer with a clipboard asking, *“And how does that make you feel?”* I show up in jeans and a t-shirt, ready to create a space that’s real, safe, and grounded in trust. Therapy with me feels more like a conversation than a clinical interrogation. I specialize in working with people who’ve been through a lot—first responders, survivors of sexual and physical abuse, those navigating PTSD, narcissistic abuse, childhood trauma, and members of the LGBTQ+ community who often carry the weight of being misunderstood or marginalized. I’m here to walk beside you through the mess, the pain, and the healing—not to observe you from a distance. I also live with ADHD, so I get what it’s like to feel scattered, overstimulated, or like your brain works just a little differently. I bring that understanding into the room—not just professionally, but personally. Whether you're neurodivergent yourself or just need someone who gets it, you’re in the right place. I believe trauma requires more than textbook techniques—it requires presence, patience, and a genuine connection. My style is relaxed, honest, and supportive. I’ll meet you exactly where you are, without judgment or pressure, and we’ll work together to help you feel whole again. Healing doesn’t have to be clinical or cold—it can be real, raw, and even a little bit human. That’s what I offer.

Boulevard Heights, FL - Accepting clients in FL

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.

Punta Gorda, FL - Accepting clients in FL

The great poet Rumi wrote "out beyond ideas of wrong-doing and right-doing, there is a field. I'll meet you there." That field is a space where calm, love and forgiveness exist. There is no judgement, only acceptance here. And in that soul space you are free to find those fragments of you that are lost, and begin to piece them back together. ​ I'm licensed in both Florida and Michigan. As a licensed clinical therapist and licensed substance abuse counselor, I have experience running very powerful substance abuse and co-occurring groups. Prior to that, I worked as a social worker in Flint, Michigan for many years as a therapist, caseworker and in crisis intervention. My experiences have given me such a rich experience and exposure to the many factors that contribute to our personal mental health and well-being. I've been fortunate to work with people in their homes, in the community, with their families as well as the private practice setting which have given me a much richer experience than just an of an office setting alone.

Accepting clients in FL

I am a licensed therapist who is passionate about helping clients navigate burnout. I am passionate because I have been there and was tired of getting unhelpful answers from people who meant well but did not seem to understand. Advice like ‘sleep it off’ and ‘take a deep breath’ we're common and it felt like I was putting a bandaid on a gaping wound. I promise, life does not need to be a constant cycle of burning out and starting again. Through our work together we will explore ways to ‘stitch’ the gaping wound so you are actually able to heal and move towards a more balanced life. Through our work together I will use imagery and analogies to help you better understand how and why your body and mind is reacting the way it is. Like a birds eye view, I am able to see some of the signs that are right in front of you but are too zoomed in to see clearly. In a non-judgmental space I use education and a bit of humor to help you see the full picture and move towards a healthier balance.

Stress, anger, depression, and anxiety can really impact your overall functioning and quality of life. Are you facing issues that you need help to work through? Do you have a life goal that you would like to achieve? Is it difficult to adjust to lifestyle changes? I recognize that our problems seldom exist in a bubble and that more often than not they are a direct reflection of our upbringing, past trauma, and/or our environment. Clients often cherish my ability to balance warmth and unconditional positive regard with challenging maladaptive beliefs. Investing in counseling can yield long-term rewards to influence healing, intimacy, and wholeness. Acquiring necessary tools for healthy growth can be invaluable to achieving an authenticity of self. We will endeavor to enhance your life through increased self-awareness, personal growth, and self-acceptance utilizing the modality most beneficial to you. Deciding to go to therapy may be a difficult decision. However, therapy can help you process complex emotions and strengthen your relationship with yourself and others. Therapy can also help you learn new ways of coping, especially during a pandemic. I welcome the opportunity to meet you and I'm honored by your consideration to allow me to journey with you.

Clearwater, FL - Accepting clients in FL

Building great relationships is one of the most meaningful aspects of life. Hello future client! My name is Ruthie and I'm one of those rare native Floridians. My primary practice approach is relational, using interventions that can help you understand the link between your thoughts, feelings and actions and the effect on your relationships. This will improve your ability to connect with others in ways that will enhance your life. I want to support you to have the loving, fulfilling, respectful relationships you deserve. In my graduate program, I learned that all human behavior develops in the context of relationships. Family relationships are most significant to individual growth. The importance of healthy relationships in a successful life is often underestimated. The value of independence in our society overshadows our human need for connections. The quality of our family, friends, romantic, work and community connections impact our physical, mental and emotional health. Positive interactions promote feelings of connectedness and a sense of self-worth while negative encounters can lead to increased anxiety, a lack of self-confidence, and may even affect your thinking abilities. I earned a BA in Interdisciplinary Social Sciences from University of South Florida in 2009 and obtained a Master’s in Social Work from the University of New England in 2016. I proudly became a licensed therapist in 2020, one good thing that occurred during the Covid pandemic.
