After graduating from Troy University with my Master's in Counseling and Psychology, I have worked in several different capacities. I have experience with inpatient group settings, outpatient counseling settings to include working with those suffering from addiction and working towards recovery, depression and anxiety among other mental health concerns. One of my most rewarding experiences was working with PTSD survivors. I recently have received my doctorate in Psychology with a concentration in grief counseling. I most enjoy being a part of my client's journey to mental health recovery. Also, I have been an Adjunct Psychology Professor for over the past 6 years and have been immersed in the academic arena which has allowed me to assist undergraduate psychology majors who wish to go into higher levels of education. I specialize in working with adolescence and their families and adults. Depression, Anxiety, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, emotional dysregulation, addictions, behavioral issues, communication style improvement, self-confidence building, and relationship improvements are some of the issues that I treat in my practice.

I believe we can all grow through challenging experiences through self-awareness. We all want to be able to share our personal truths and be accepted and understood. I believe it's very important to be open-minded and non-judgmental when someone shares their personal story or experiences.

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.

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.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 10 years of professional mental health experience. I graduated with my Bachelor's in Psychology in 2008 and my Master's degree in Counselor Education, with a graduate certificate in Marriage and Family Therapy, in 2012. I have worked in a variety of mental health settings, which has given me a wide range of clinical experience and allowed me to work with clients from different walks of life and cultural backgrounds. I am radical and revolutionary in thought and praxis and believe in a liberated and equitable world for all people. Clients who tend to be attracted to me are those who may struggle with a lack of confidence and self-esteem, those who are plagued with "Imposter Syndrome", and those who identify as people-pleasers. I also work with People of Color on healing internalized oppression. My clients are often very bright and self-aware but feel they are missing the tools, accountability and higher-level knowledge to get themselves into action and start making tangible, concrete progress. Additional areas of focus: Addictions, LGBT, Relationship issues, Family conflicts, Trauma and abuse, Grief, Intimacy-related issues, Depression, Coping with life changes, Life Purpose, Multicultural Concerns, Prejudice and Discrimination, Self-Love, Women's Issues Therapy does not have to be a years-long, overwhelming or deeply painful process. Many people I have worked with have remarked that they were surprised at how quickly they were able to feel a sense of progress, where they felt stagnant for years or decades prior. While I am very good at what I do, I can only meet you as far and as deep as you are willing to go yourself. Those who are proactive about their healing work and take responsibility tend to make the most progress in the least amount of time.

Hi I’m CJ a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) that focus' on working with individuals, couples, and families who aren’t just looking to feel better they’re looking for something real. Not peace that comes from avoiding conflict, but the kind that comes from being fully seen, heard, and understood even in the mess. Most of us develop habits and defenses to get through life. Some serve us, others start to block us. My job is to help you see the difference, get curious about where they come from, and decide which ones you’re ready to let go of. We live in a world that rewards performance and discourages authenticity. This work is about slowing down, cutting through the noise, and reconnecting with what matters so you can live in alignment with who you really are, not who you've been told to be.

I earned my Master of Social Work from the University of Central Florida in 2020 and obtained my Florida licensure in 2022. My professional journey began in 2012 within a Head Start program, where I developed a deep commitment to supporting individuals and families. Over the years, my clinical focus expanded, leading me to join a mental health agency in 2022, where I provided individual, group, and family therapy. As someone from a military family, I have a personal understanding of the unique experiences faced by service members, veterans, and their loved ones. This insight inspired me to open my own practice, with the goal of offering specialized, culturally competent care to the military and veteran community, as well as to adult individuals navigating trauma, life transitions, and personal growth. I utilize a strengths-based, trauma-informed approach that emphasizes resilience, self-determination, and holistic well-being. I’m honored to walk alongside you in your healing journey and look forward to helping you build on your strengths and enhance your resilience.

Sexual Abuse
I have been a practicing social worker for more than 30 years . Much of this experience has been working in a large public teaching hospital in Miami, Florida. The scope of service that the hospital provides is quite comprehensive which afforded me opportunities to work with a very diverse population . i have counseled patients and their families dealing with a variety of illnesses, both physical and mental health, survivors of sexual assault, and also providing counseling to patients in a correctional setting. I like challenging situations. My style of counseling is very eclectic, depends on the client and their unique set of problems. This can range from client centered, solution oriented or cognitive behavioral as many people are coming to therapy to learn new ways of thinking and alternative coping strategies. For the past two years, I have been involved in teletherapy providing psychotherapy to clients that are experiencing such problems as anxiety, depression, employment, relationship, and interpersonal difficulties. Also I have been providing counseling to teenagers dealing with the above issues and involving their parents when indicated.
