My name is Michelle Lake, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida with over 10 years counseling experience. I have a Master's Degree in Counselor Education with a specialization in Mental Health Counseling, and I am a Qualified Supervisor for Mental Health Counselors. I have extensive experience working with adults, teenagers, and the LGBT population providing individual therapy, couples counseling, family therapy, and group counseling. I have devoted my life to helping others make positive changes in their lives. We all face obstacles and sometimes feel like we do not have the strength to overcome these obstacles. However, within each human spirit, is the power to thrive and overcome life's challenges.
I am passionate about helping my clients tap into their inner power so they are able to resolve their problems, heal, and live happy and emotionally healthy lives.
I do this by establishing caring, genuine therapeutic relationships with my clients whereby I empower them to make positive changes through the use of a holistic approach and various therapeutic modalities. I look forward to working with you!

Michelle has been an amazing help to me just when I needed her most! She’s very understanding and kind and also Encourages you to look at situations from other points of view. She isn’t the type of counselor to just agree with everything you say. She genuinely wants everybody to be better. I think I have found my counselor for life!

Michelle is not only a professional but she also make me feel like she it's a friend I can speak with her about anything without being judge. It's hard to talk about feeling and be vulnerable when life only teach you to be strong but I feel strong sharing my concern with her. She give me the tools I need to get back up and move forward. Thank You!
