Michele 'Ama Wehali' Rozbitsky, MA LPCC is a psychotherapist, shamanic practitioner, teacher and ceremonialist with more than thirty years of practicing traditional and alternative forms of therapy and healing. She graduated in 1990 with a MA in Transformational Counseling from Southwestern College in Santa Fe, N.M. In private practice for over 20 years.
Michele worked at ENIPC with the Eight Northern Pueblos in Northern, New Mexico for six years, developing and managing a Family Violence Program called 'Peace Keepers' that exists to this day. She worked at St. Vincent's Hospital in Behavioral Health as a Crisis Worker, Art and Outpatient group Therapist. For ten years Michele facilitated Temple Initiation Rites, Solstices and Equinoxes and workshops at Stardreaming Temple and Labyrinth Complex south of Santa Fe.
Michele has been trained in various psychotherapy modalities as well as in many shamanic and healing practices, participating in teachings and ceremonies from a variety of indigenous cultures and traditions, including Mayan, Native American, Hawaiian, Egyptian and Balinese. Her greatest gifts are in her ability to bring together the teachings of many cultures, to trust spiritual guidance on what is needed for healing and to create and hold a loving, sacred space.
Many modern energy healers use the word ‘Shaman’ to describe what they do. The word Shaman comes from a word from the Tungus tribe of Siberia used to describe the Healers/Medicine People who work with the invisible spiritual realms of Nature and Humans, to bring deep healing, balance, and guidance. The modern day Shaman bridges together the old tradition and the new in a synthesis that offers assistance for the people who live the modern life without dishonoring what has come before but building on this knowledge.
The gift of a Shamanic Practitioner is in the ability to navigate with the guidance of Spirit, accessing heightened states of intuition, creating deep and long lasting change, going to the core of long held issues and negative patterns. Many of the people who come for a shamanic session are ready to go deeper into healing and transformation, gaining understanding of their Soul journey from a higher perspective. Michele also ads the grounding of her many skills as an experienced Psychotherapist.

Reviews on Workshop October 2024 at the Chi Center in Galisteo, NM 'Initiation Rites of the Rainbow Bridge to the Fifth World:
It was a very special transformative experience participating in this Workshop, which I am so grateful for. Most impressive was aligning with both the Father Tree and Mother Tree of Life at the Chi Center. There was palpable sacred energy shared by a group of 12 like minded participants as we entered into higher consciousness through the teachings, symbolisms, fire, and other ceremonies led by Michele. Her shamanic energy was shared by all bringing transformation deep within. I truly look forward to more teachings and ceremonies presented by Michele. During these challenging times affecting all sentient beings and our beautiful threatened earth, we need to remain hopeful and strong ~ together. Lois Santa Fe N.M.
I have worked with Michele for five years. I started when I had an incurable cancer, which I have been free of for almost five years. I have learned that she is the "real thing". I attended the Tree ceremony with this knowledge and knew it would be profound. It was. It seemed that our group was called to rejoin at this juncture in our history through an agreement we made a long time ago. Michele was shown a profound image of an Indigenous Mother and Rainbow on a photo taken of a sacred 'Mother Tree' that a portal needed to be opened at this ancient Tree to invite 5th World energies to move onto our planet at this sacred location of Northern NM. Through a soulful weaving, we brought our particular part to the ceremony to bring the healing and gifts of the 13 Original Nations to unite in the Heart of the Divine Mother. Together, the humans, nature and the mystery blended into a magical community of harmony and love opening a Rainbow Bridge of higher consciousness. This was an intense ceremony which blessed both the participants and the land as we all remembered we are nature and we carry its awe within us.
I know Michele to be a leader of integrity and she is profoundly connected to the parts of us who remember who we are in nature. I say this all with gratitude and with a sense of the healing that is happening with our conscious action. I trust that as our balance with nature is reestablished, we will face a more communal future and learn to regain our roots.

Nothing happens by chance and it amazes me how we are guided to follow our path which, if we allow it, brings us to powerful and life-changing experiences and people. I was surrounded by such beautiful and shining souls and any and all anxiety or concerns I might have had instantly melted away. Softly, I felt transported to a sacred place and gently experienced what being a spiritual community is. Present was the coming together of cultures and beliefs radiating light and unity. A childlike joy arose from the depths of my soul and being. I experienced my authentic self in its true form. The view of my path became clearer. Alas, I am deeply grateful that my life path has brought me to Michele and all the beautiful souls gathered there. I never would’ve imagined it possible! With deep gratitude, many blessings to you, Michele, for following your life purpose in this lifetime. I have also experienced deep soul transformation in individual Shamanic Sessions with Michele for a few years now.
