About Michaela Kate

I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), Certified Integrative Mental Health Provider, and HeartMath certified practitioner. I teach graduate-level trauma and crisis intervention at BayPath University and Merrimack College, and I've spent over 20 years working with individuals and communities navigating the full spectrum of human transformation — from acute crisis to subtle internal shifts that reshape everything.

My work weaves clinical mental health frameworks with nervous system regulation, energetic healing, flower essence support, mind-body and integrative wellness practices. I hold an Advanced Grief Counseling Specialist certification and bring a trauma-informed lens to every container I offer. 

I support people who are shifting — those navigating loss, transition, awakening, disappointment, identity shifting, relationship endings, career pivots, collective grief, or simply the deep knowing that who they've been no longer fits. My approach honors transformation on many levels: mental, emotional, somatic, energetic, and spiritual.

Sometimes it's the shift we see coming, the shift we've been hoping for, the shift we create. Sometimes it's the shift that we didn't see coming, the one we didn't invite, and the one that we wouldn't create but happened anyway. 

All can be an opportunity to awaken, shift, and evolve. I have a profound believe in the human capacity and it is truly an honor to walk alongside you. 

Thank you for being here.
