Hello!
My name is Danica Bokal and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Florida with over 8 years experience in the mental health field. I have worked with individuals and families with many different needs and concerns. I have have specific experience working with individuals going through a life transition. This includes alcohol, drug, and other addictive behaviors; depression; anxiety; career changes; coping skills; identity; and trauma. I also am specifically sensitive to LGBTQ+, women's empowerment, and men's mental health specific needs.
I approach any of my clients as individuals and seek to learn what they are going through and use evidenced-based interventions towards their goals. My approach is specifically beneficial on this platform as I use a combination of psycho-education and psycho-therapy that my clients can do on their own and together throughout the week. I offer an authentic, empathetic, and warm approach that is also active and directive.
As a therapist, my goal is to encourage you towards a better you. I offer a safe, inviting, non-judgmental environment to help you in your personal growth.
You have the resources inside of you and I will help show you how to use them. If you are committed to creating a more fulfilling and meaningful life, I look forward to working with you.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Danica is the best thing that’s ever happened to me
Danica has been great and made me feel very comfortable. She has a lot of insight and made me feel better about the guilt Ive been carrying.
Amazing
She’s literally the best
I felt heard and I felt feeling better about myself.
I would most definitely recommend Danica. I always look forward to my therapy sessions with her.
Danica is such a great listener and we connect so well on several levels! Love that she gives easy “homework” directly related to the goals and topics discussed.
One session in and Danica has changed my mindset on a lot of things. She actually cares about what I have to say and responds in an efficient manner! I would recommend her to anyone seeking help, but is a little apprehensive. She’s patient and VERY understanding.
I think Danica’s awesome! What a breath of fresh air- I didn’t have too many hopes when I first started therapy using better help- I thought it was going to be useless like my previous experience but it’s been awesome!!! I really like talking to her - she is very professional, listens and actually understands your concerns in the modern age. Our mental health problems have also evolved and changed with the times we live in. But she is awesome! I would highly recommend her.
It’s been so helpful to talk with someone. Danica has been very supportive, has offered great insight and advice. I appreciate her honesty and observations during our sessions, and the gentle way in which she offers hard truths.
Danica is so reliable, listening, comforting, and enlightening with each therapy session. I feel lucky to have been matched with someone so helpful! Our sessions have given me so much power and peace of mind back to my personal self.
She's great. I only had to cancel his week because if my schedule. Thanks.
Danica is very thoughtful in her approach. She really wants to know what you are looking to receive from therapy and tailors the experience to your needs while holding steadfast in grounded expansive philosophy. I would definitely recommend her as a therapist. So far I have thoroughly enjoyed our sessions, I feel progressive is being made and I am being given tools to wield in my own mental/emotional evolvement. Thanks Danica!
Danica was very helpful in our first session. She saw my point of view and helped me think rationally about my situation.
I am completely satisfied with Ms. Danica Hall's overall effort toward my healing process and I dig that she appreciates my need for organization. I am already seeing a boost in my mood and have only seen her twice. Thank you Ms. Danica Hall I enjoy working with you.
I’m new to better help and online therapy . My 20 year old son recommended me to this site. Danica is helping me get comfortable with a new way to reach a competent counselor and improve my mental help. I’m confident the tools she is giving me can help me navigate this unpredictable time we’re in.
Danica is amazing! Very personable and knowledgeable. Makes you feel better comfortable and explains everything. Very good therapist I’m so thankful to have been matched to her!
