Palm City, FL - Accepting clients in FL

I am a licensed mental health counselor in the state of Florida accepting new clients. I try to match what the client in front of me needs. I use a client-centered approach most often and evidence-based approaches like cognitive behavior therapy or motivational interviewing. I'll give an open, nonjudgmental space to help you move through rather than around difficult thoughts, feelings, and situations. I can help with a variety of concerns from adjusting to life changes, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder and/or unresolved trauma. For trauma work, there a few methods that we discuss and choose depending on needs: EMDR, CPT and NET. Each trauma intervention is quite different in method but the ultimate goal is the same: post traumatic growth.

It is time to invest yourself! The first step to changing our circumstances is acknowledging something isn’t working. The process of change takes courage. My approach in counseling is to create an encouraging environment which my clients can find the strength to make those first steps into the unknown.

I then went on to receive a Masters degree in counseling from Webster University. After my education I went on to gain clinical experience in many different areas over the next 18 years including, but not limited to inpatient psychiatric facilities, intensive outpatient, partial hospitalization, group therapy, marriage and family counseling, individual counseling, and substance abuse counseling.

Jupiter, FL - Accepting clients in FL

A little bit about me, my name is Amanda Chilleme, I am a Florida, Georgia, 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.

Pensacola, FL - Accepting clients in FL

I help adults struggling to form deep and meaningful relationships with others as a result of lonely or painful childhood experiences. My ideal client is motivated for change and is open to developing a curiosity about his or her inner experiences. As a therapist, I am relationship-focused and believe that, while it does not define us, our early life experiences form templates from which we operate in our lives. Sometimes those templates or "old ways" no longer work for us meaningfully and we find ourselves stuck. My ideal client is open to assessing relationships with others, themselves, and past experiences to bring vibrancy and enrichment to their lives. Should this be you, I want to empower you by building awareness and insight from a holistic/integrative perspective so you can respond to life with choice and freedom. You deserve to breathe easier.
