Michelle Lake, LPC
About me
I am a therapist licensed in Michigan with over 3 years of experience. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, ADHD, and addiction. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.
My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and rational-emotive therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Michelle is a very open-minded and compassionate person. I've never for a moment felt uncomfortable with her or like I wasn't being fully heard or understood. I highly recommend her.

She's great. She's always trying to help out her people and give them space while not being too coddling

Michelle approaches all conversations with empathy and awareness, and asks the hard-hitting (but applicable) questions that lead you toward shaping your own reality and healing!

She’s so empathetic and really listens to you. I like how she takes the time to make sure you’re getting what you need and it doesn’t feel forced. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone who really cares about what they do. She does and it shows.
