Dr. Connirae Andreas studied psychology at Bethel College in North Newton, Kansas (1971–73) and the University of Kansas (1973–75). She holds an MA in Clinical Psychology from the University of Colorado and was awarded a PhD in Psychotherapy from National Christian University in 1989. Her graduate studies were supported by a Danforth Foundation Fellowship. She has been working as a trainer, developer and author in the area of ​​personal growth since the end of the 1970s. She is one of the first NLP trainers. Together with her husband Steve Andreas, who passed away in 2018, she made an important contribution to the further development of NLP by developing more in-depth methods and in doing so started a new and modern way of working with NLP. Above all, she has set a sign with her loving attitude towards clients and participants.

She is known for her extraordinary work as the inventor of the Core Transformation process, which is today used as a basis by many well-known coaches. She has developed this simple and gentle method from a personal experience with the work of Milton Erickson. It's an easy path that helps us open a door to our inner core states. This naturally leads us to solve many of our problems and challenges from an inner attitude and to come to a holistic and very personal balance.

Connirae Andreas, together with her husband Steve, her sister Tamara and her son Mark, has always been an inspiration for many people who want to personally grow and develop from their core and for many coaches, therapists and trainers who accompany these people — a role Connirae continues to carry to this day.
