Rev. Connie L. Habash, MA, LMFT, has been passionate about personal and spiritual growth since her youth. Her journey took her through healing her own anxiety and depression, as well as supporting hundreds of others in awakening from fears, worry, and despair. Many fields interested her in college, but an epiphany revealed that psychology brought them all together. She received a Master¿s in Counseling Psychology from JFK University in 1994, and became licensed as a Marriage and Family Therapist in 1999. Always seeking the great perennial truths, she has studied and explored many spiritual traditions. Rev. Connie discovered yoga in 1991, and immediately she knew she wanted to teach; two years later, that dream was realized. Her love of sharing universal, spiritual principles led her to seek ordination as an Interfaith minister in 2012. Rev. Connie regularly leads classes, workshops, women¿s groups, yoga teacher trainings, and retreats, and has a counseling practice in Menlo Park, CA. She has been quoted in the Huffington Post, Reader¿s Digest, NBCNews.com, Psych Central, and Thriveworks, and has featured articles on Elephant Journal and NY Times best-selling author Mike Dooley¿s TUT website. Her orientation towards personal and spiritual growth integrates body, mind, heart, and spirit from her years of experience on the yoga mat and in the therapist chair.
