  • Bridgeport, CT (1888PressRelease) December 11, 2015 - Michelle E. Gage, Founder, Psychotherapist, and Founder of Wellness Warriors NYC, has been selected as an Honored Member of the Covington Who's Who Executive and Professional Registry.

    While in college, Michelle E. Gage worked for a substance use treatment program in Boston. The humbling experience taught her that people were eager to achieve balance, hope, and peace in their lives, and she desired to help then in their process. Going on to work in a psychiatric hospital afterward, and later beginning her work as a psychotherapist, Ms. Gage started her own private therapy practice where she empowers individuals and families to build confidence to make lifestyle changes. She tries to weave alternative, holistic methods into therapy sessions. Her sessions are very experiential based, and if music relaxes a particular client, then she allows them to listen to it. Likewise, if meditation helps, Ms. Gage will make recordings for them to listen to at home. Being passionate about wellness, she wanted a larger platform to facilitate change in a way society views health and wellness. In 2014, she founded Wellness Warriors NYC, which focuses on alternative, holistic approaches to mental health, substance abuse, and pain management.

    As Founder of Wellness Warriors NYC, Ms. Gage blogs, teaches workshops, and holds individual sessions to help others find holistic remedies. Her goal is to help be more aware of in their day to day lives. If they are feeling stressed, it is okay, Ms. Gage says, and she helps they find a healthy outlet. To increase awareness and accessibility, Ms. Gage and team created YouTube videos for people to find relaxation in their home. Ms. Gage and her team of consultants use comprehensive, in-person workshops or individual sessions. Recently, she and her team were asked to present at Hunter College, School of Social Work. She used interactive workshops to help the students identify signs of burn out and identify ways to cope.

    "I have had some amazing mentors in my life," Ms. Gage noted. "My father, for instance, knew that I would one day hone my energy into something greater than myself, like Wellness Warriors NYC. He taught me all about work ethic, when to speak up, and when to allow others to be the leaders."

    Attributing much of her success to having unconditional support and space to learn without criticism, Ms. Gage's perseverance continues to lead the way. Hoping to soon incorporate animals to sessions with clients to enhance their therapeutic process, she says that animals have amazing senses and intuition that benefit people while healing and helping them gain confidence in their lives.

    Ms. Gage is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of New York and Connecticut and is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in the state of Massachusetts. She holds a Master's Degree in Social Work from Springfield College since 2009. An active member of National Association of Social Workers on the Executive Committee of Zeta Tau Alpha, Ms. Gage is also the 2004 recipient of The Blue and Gold Award for Diversity from Merrimack College for increasing membership and awareness for the LGBTQ community and is a recipient of a Shining Star Award through NAFI in Connecticut for maintaining the highest productivity for two consecutive months in 2015.
