Michelle Anne Hobart, MA, SEC, AMFT is a teacher, writer, and Associate Marriage and Family Therapist at Holos Institute. She trained as a Spiritual Emergence Coach® with Emma Bragdon, works closely with the Gnosis Retreat Center project, and has an online Spiritual Emergence course with Kyle Buller, MS, SEC entitled "Awakening Healers", among her other collaborations. Michelle offers individual, couple, and group therapy and leads community wellness workshops and retreats. Her love for the Earth, spirit, and education was demonstrated in her past as a high school Biology and Health teacher working in the Baltimore parochial school system, after receiving her BS in Biology from University of Maryland Baltimore County. Deeply longing to immerse herself in the subtle realms, she was drawn to the Bay Area to continue her studies. With her MA in Philosophy, Cosmology, and Consciousness from CIIS, she experientially and scholastically continued her own personal journey of healing and the joy of sharing that path with others. Michelle studied bodywork, energy medicine, had her spiritual emergency, and then went back to CIIS. She graduated from the Integral Counseling Psychology program in May 2018. Now, she is completing her MFT hours and studying for the clinical exam, and is in awe of the beautiful opportunities that the Universe provides her to support others through her writing, being a therapist, and her other healing modalities.
