Whether you're just starting therapy or returning to it, I'm Danica, and I'm honored to connect with you. My goal is to create a space where you can be fully yourself with honesty, compassion, and support. I believe in the power of showing up authentically, and I strive to offer a space that feels safe, collaborative, and deeply human. I welcome clients of all ages and backgrounds. Whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, or athletic performance stress, I take a holistic approach that honors your emotional, mental, physical, and social well-being.
My approach is rooted in empathy, authenticity, and partnership. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all model. Instead, I use a personalized blend of evidence-based modalities—including CBT, DBT, ACT, IFS, and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) to support your unique path forward.
Together, we’ll explore your experiences, reconnect with your inner strengths, and tap into the resources within you and your community. If you're looking for a space that meets you where you are and supports you in becoming more grounded and empowered, I’d be honored to work with you. https://www.drmonicalake.com/

✨ Every brain is different — and that's something to celebrate. ✨

Neurodivergence (autism, ADHD, dyslexia & more) is just a natural variation in how brains work 💭🧠

Being neurodiversity-affirming means:
✔️ Celebrating differences, not pathologizing them
✔️ Supporting autonomy, not forcing “normal”
✔️ Making space for real, authentic expression

💬 And yes, that includes understanding profiles like PDA — which isn’t defiance, it’s a deep need for control and safety.

At Dr. Lake & Associates, we celebrate neurodiversity and meet every person with compassion, respect, and the belief that you are enough. 💛

Let’s build a world where neurodivergent people are seen, supported, and empowered — just as they are. 🌈✨
