The Enneagram
What does it mean to be an Enneagram-Informed Therapist and Coach?
“Give a man a fish and feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and he’ll eat for a lifetime.” -Lao Tzu
The Enneagram blends ancient knowledge, modern psychology, and spirituality to help us profoundly understand ourselves and claim ownership over our lives. It’s a proven method for identifying limiting beliefs, behavioral patterns, communication styles, and relationship needs. These are some of the most central concepts explored in therapy and coaching, and I’ve witnessed clients of all backgrounds experience tremendous growth.
If you choose to engage with the Enneagram, I will teach you how to use this dynamic tool so that you'll have it in your toolbox, long after we conclude our work.

It will be available to you as you evolve, bringing awareness to the ways you show up in the world, so that you live a more awakened, conscious, life.
THE ENNEAGRAM CAN TEACH you
- How anxiety manifests itself in your our your day-to-day, even though you might call it something different
- Your unconscious motivations and desires
- Your preferred way to have your needs met
- How you predictably respond when your needs aren’t met
- How your behavior changes when you are under stress
- The way others might perceive you, and why it differs from the way you perceive yourself;
- What it means to have “instincts,” and how these cause conflict in our most intimate relationships;.
- The unconscious motivations that drive just about everything you do.

Leaning into my four-ness is doing BIG things for my business! I signed four clients this week! Team Enneagram!
Kate, copywriter, Enneagram type 4
I'm learning so much. I now see how my efforts to be easygoing are actually not seen as helpful and it doesn't make things easier for people. I now understand why I'm not getting the response I'm going for.

Frequently Asked Questions
Enneagram coaching is for anyone who wants to free themselves from the bondage of self. Can’t get out of your own way? Do you think that if everyone else got their lives in order, you’d be fine, too? Do you keep having the same argument over and over again?
Enneagram coaching is not traditional talk therapy, but it can work with topics brought to traditional talk therapy. It is insightful, practical, and offers solutions. If you are willing to show up for yourself, honestly share your story, and get curious, this work is for you. It might ask you to think outside the box, but thinking inside the box has created suffering. It isn’t working.
In my experience, clients come with a desired outcome and leave having opened options, choices, and possibilities that go beyond what they could have imagined. It is powerful and brilliant and accessible to anyone willing to do the work and receive what comes from it.
Coaching can be done in a 1:1 setting, but to do so in a group, is by far, the most powerful way to see the types at work. I invite you to take advantage of either option as a means of better understanding yourself.
Coaching and therapy are as individual as the person doing the inner work. Together, we’ll design a program that meets your needs in terms of time, length of engagement, cost, and support.
