Khym Carmichael, LMHC

Hello and thank you for considering me for your counseling journey. I base my practice in choice theory, helping people remember that they have choices and options in their life. By taking care of ourselves first, we can be available for anything that comes our way. Life can be challenging, and with a little shift, we can turn challenges into opportunities.

I received my master’s degree in Holistic Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Salve Regina University, where I also earned a CAGS in Expressive and Creative Arts. As a lifelong musician, performer, and music teacher, I have found great catharsis through expression and welcome the privilege of guiding others through processes that illuminate blocks in their lives.

I am also a certified Rebirthing breathworker, Herbalist, and Expressive and Creative Arts facilitator.  The links below will illuminate where I have built my counseling career and what influences I bring for possibility into my practice.  

I believe each of us has everything we need inside of us to be whole, and I am here to help you love yourself once again, embrace your innocence, and live the life you want. So often we are told we need to be fixed, that we are broken. The reality is we are who we are, and we don’t need to be fixed. We need to be loved by ourselves and those around us. We can then love more freely and completely.

I specialize in working with people who are ready to do the work to live the life they want. There may be pain, suffering, fear, anxiety, depression or grief that is burdening you. I can help you meet these qualities safely, with curiosity, and eventually with love. I welcome all ages, genders, ethnicities, and abilities.

While I am not an expert in all fields, I am experienced in life. I teach music to children aged 5 to adults in their 80’s and I can flow between them and their caregivers, strengthening the work being done by creating open lines of communication. Establishing core connection allows us to widen our support and continue creating the world in which we want to live. Thank you for your consideration. I hope to meet you soon.
