Therapists in College Park, Orlando, 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 have experience helping clients with depression, stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, relationship issues, family conflicts, 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.

How Can I Help? Are you not sure what is keeping you from being happy? Have you been successful in most areas of your life except your personal one? Or are you turning to other things for a temporary boost that often leaves you worst off than before? "Grow from Life's Challenges" is my approach to treatment. Loneliness, isolation, depression, anxiety and addiction are unfortunately the norm in today's fast-paced environment.

As a therapist, I value the therapeutic relationship and seek to work collaboratively with you to identify goals and select interventions that are tailored to your needs. In agreement with you, I will journey alongside you as you explore self, growth, and healing. May our work together foster hope, insight, and empowerment so you can achieve your personal goals.

Are you tired of feeling depressed, angry, anxious, and confused, or do you perhaps hear negative voices on an ongoing basis? Then let’s talk. We will work together to explore and process what you are going through while moving you towards becoming emotionally and mentally healthier. At The Comfy Place, we work with individuals, couples, and families to help guide and support them on their journey to living a healthier and more fulfilled life.

Life is consistently pulling us and twisting us all in a multitude of directions. Life demands we ‘do this now' then 'hurry up and do that' and then hold on tight because there is even more, we 'must hurry up and accomplish this next thing right now!' If this sounds familiar, my guess is that you are exhausted if not overwhelmed. I know firsthand that life can often take us down unexpected roads that might feel extremely scary and intense. I also know that there is infinite power and resilience that comes from seeking help, leaning in, and doing the work that helps us cope during the difficult times and feel grounded once again.

Are you struggling with issues related to sexuality, intimacy, or relationships? Working through personal or relational challenges can be overwhelming and leave you feeling stressed or anxious. I help clients identify barriers to pleasure and address concerns that are contributing to dissatisfaction and work with them to meet their goals. Individual and partnered therapy sessions offered.

I specialize in working with young adults and teenagers who struggle with anxiety and low self-esteem. I also work a lot with clients who are adjusting to a new phase of life (like starting college, entering adulthood, grieving a break up, etc.) and issues pertaining to spirituality and meaning-making.

I am waitlisting new clients but have a team available to see you at: www.olivebranchcounselingaz.com - Life can get messy and overwhelming, even when we think we've got our shit together! You may be coming here as a parent feeling exhausted by how to help your child, wanting to find the right therapist for your child or teen that they connect with, or an adult needing a space to process all the stressors of life. I am excited to help you get started with identifying your needs and working together to come up with goals that truly matter to you.

Daily. You feel uneasy...you spend wakeful nights with racing thoughts. Either struggling to get to sleep or waking up early morning hours 1am, 2am, knowing, thats it. Im awake now. Tomorrow is going to be painful. Ill be tired all day, fuzzy brained and now with more anxiety because I might mess up. I wont be 100% and it will show. Ill get fired, they will hate me for not being better. I over apologize for insignificant things always with the nagging fear that I have to be the best or they wont like me, notice me, keep me around. I wont succeed, Ill fail and it will be my fault.

Do you feel overwhelmed or distracted with your emotions? Are you exhausted from trying to manage anxiety and stress? Maybe you are ready to address issues from the past that are keeping you from showing up authentically in current relationships. If this resonates with you, you are not alone. I help clients address issues related to trauma & PTSD, anxiety, and stress with the goal of healing and functioning more effectively in life. My practice revolves around helping clients create goals, explore patterns and relationships, and learn skills to help navigate stressors and regulate emotions.

Healing is possible. Whether you are struggling with emotional pain, relationship issues, or childhood trauma there is a path that will help you heal. Our purpose is to help you on this journey by using my training and experience. We provide an open and non-judgemental environment that creates space for you to gain the skills you need to live a fulfilling life that is not plagued with constant worry and self-doubt.

Hi There welcome! Im Candy, Im a real therapist who loves providing patients feedback and coping skills that actually work.Things are overwhelming, it sometimes feels like we cant catch a break. Anxiety creeps in, we start having racing thoughts, our energy is depleted and its the same cycle all over again. Excessive worry, trouble sleeping and low motivation are all things you can work through in therapy.

Sometimes we feel sad, lonely, anxious, scared, worried, angry or maybe even unsure exactly how we feel, but something feels off. Sometimes when we are really upset we start to feel physical symptoms in our bodies. Sometimes we can feel very irritable or even have outbursts of anger. Sometimes we just can’t stop thinking about something that happened and other times we don’t want to think about it at all. Sometimes we notice ourselves becoming disconnected from others or just not doing what we used to enjoy doing. Sometimes we can’t sleep even if we really want to and feel tired.

I provide a non-judgmental and caring space for you to express your life's challenges and concerns. As you are immersed in the struggles of life you are affected emotionally, mentally, and, physically, and it is difficult to see all the options available to you. Together we will broaden the point of view so that solutions, insight, and clarity appear. I apply a holistic approach to unify the various characteristics of the self. I welcome you to explore what is meaningful to you so that you can best express your authentic self and cultivate important relationships.

Change takes courage, it takes patience, and it takes perseverance. I believe that your pain, viewpoint and struggles are unique to you. With a direct understanding of the diversity of issues that you experience, I am here to help you take charge of your mental health. I sympathize with the collective experience and empathize with the personal experiences that you go through. It is important to know that counseling is a collaborative journey that requires honesty, vulnerability, and patience. I am happy that you are here taking the first step.
