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.

Hello, my name is Bryan, I am a licensed clinical social worker and have experience working in several clinical and therapeutic settings. I started my career working for Advent Health Hospice Care, one of the largest non-profit hospital systems in the country. Through this position I gained experience in providing therapeutic counseling services to individuals and families who are going through major transitional periods in their lives (receiving a terminal illness, death of loved one, living adjustments etc.) As a result I am well experienced in dealing with depression, anxiety, situational stress, loss of a loved one, grief, and am understanding of how medical issues can affect a person’s mental health. I have also worked for Orlando Health at the Winnie Palmer Hospital for Women and Babies covering the ED/Triage, antepartum and postpartum units of the hospital. This position gave me experience with providing crisis interventions and psychotherapeutic counseling to patient's who have a history of severe mental health issues, or who are actively experiencing medical emergencies, traumatic events, domestic violence, manic/depressive episodes, psychotic episodes, and suicidal ideations. In addition, I provided education on post partum depression and child care. In 2021 I began teaching classes as an Adjunct Professor for the University of Central Florida's College of Health Professions and Sciences. I have also worked for the National Suicide Prevention Line where I learned how to deal with a variety of mental health and emotional crisis situations over the phone. I feel well equipped to help my clients deal with a variety of issues, weather in person, or online. I take an objective and collaborative approach to understanding problems, and work with clients to create strategies to address problems head on so that clients learn the skills necessary to achieve their goals.

I’m a licensed psychotherapist with a background in clinical psychology and former experience in the medical field. I provide individual and couples therapy with a focus on insight-oriented, relational work that helps clients build self-awareness, emotional resilience, and meaningful, lasting change. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in a deep respect for each person’s unique story and cultural context. I have had the privilege of working with clients from diverse backgrounds, including those navigating complex trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and relationship challenges. I strive to offer a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their inner experiences, gain clarity, and move toward healthier ways of being and relating. In addition to traditional talk therapy, I incorporate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), an evidence-based treatment I’ve been using for the past two years. EMDR has been especially effective in helping clients process PTSD, C-PTSD, generational trauma, and other trauma-related concerns. I also integrate somatic, attachment-based, and mindfulness-informed techniques to support holistic healing and growth. My goal is to meet clients where they are and walk alongside them as they reconnect with their values, inner strengths, and sense of self. I am dedicated to providing culturally responsive care that respects and affirms each person’s identity and lived experience. Whether you're seeking support for personal growth, emotional healing, or navigating life’s challenges, I am here to support you with compassion, clarity, and authenticity.

Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, depression, or compulsive behaviors take over. You may appear capable on the outside—but inside, you feel stuck, frustrated, or disconnected from the life you want to live. I help individuals break free from the patterns that hold them back and move toward meaningful, lasting change. Whether you’re struggling with overthinking, emotional burnout, avoidance, or habits that no longer serve you, therapy can help you create real momentum. Using evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and Habit Reversal Training (HRT), we’ll work together to build tools that support your goals and fit your life. My style is direct, compassionate, and collaborative—focused on helping you make practical changes that lead to real relief. You do not have to keep managing everything on your own. Let’s work together to help you feel more grounded, more in control, and more connected to the life you want.

Addressing the underlying causes of addiction is of equal importance and often involves trauma-focused therapy and Psychotherapy to manage the anxiety and depression that frequently are part of the problem. By tailoring a comprehensive approach to addiction therapy, we will address the unique needs of each individual to produce the best possible results.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Florida rather than a city like Tampa?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Florida from Miami to Jacksonville! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Florida.

Will my therapist take Blue Cross Blue Shield - Medicare?

Yes! If you use Blue Cross Blue Shield - Medicare you’ll be asked to verify your Member ID at the time you book the appointment. However, if you don’t have Blue Cross Blue Shield - Medicare you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

What are the "Clients say I'm" badges?

Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
