About Danica
Danica Bokal is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida with eight years of experience in the mental health field. She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, sleep and parenting concerns, and life transitions. She is attentive to LGBTQ+ identity issues and offers support around career change, relationship strain, grief, trauma, and self-esteem.
Danica treats each person as an individual and asks questions to understand what is happening in their life. She uses a mix of teaching and therapy work so clients have practical tools between sessions. Her style is warm and direct, combining empathy with concrete strategies to move toward goals.
Her approach draws on methods that focus on values, behavior, and relationships. She blends acceptance and commitment strategies with cognitive and skills-based tools to help manage symptoms and make changes. Attachment-informed perspectives are used when relationship patterns and early connections affect current struggles.
Sessions aim to build skills for everyday life, from managing sleep and stress to coping with cravings or intense emotions. Danica encourages people to notice what matters to them, practice new ways of responding, and try small steps that add up.
If someone is ready to look at habits, patterns, or painful events and wants a therapist who will both listen and give direction, Danica offers steady, practical support to help clients work toward a more meaningful life.
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small steps toward those values while learning to sit with difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and sleep-related struggles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and practicing new strategies to change them; it can be useful for anxiety, mood, and sleep disruptions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and can be helpful when communication, intimacy, or recurring relationship problems cause distress.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to match methods to their goals, preferences, and life situation. That means trying techniques, checking how they feel, and adjusting the plan together as needed.
Practical benefits of online therapy include making sessions easier to fit into a busy week and allowing more flexible scheduling around work or caregiving. If you need shorter check-ins, or prefer not to be on camera, those practical preferences can be discussed when arranging sessions. Session formats are not listed here, so please confirm which options are available before booking. Licensed professionals can use these approaches online to teach skills, review homework, and support gradual changes that fit everyday life.
