Enneagram Therapy & Coaching

Break Free and THRIVE!

 

 Falling into the same ditch over and over again?

If you’re wanting to FINALLY break free of old patterns, triggers, and habits, the Enneagram is a powerful tool that can show you:

1. Where You Are Now

2. Where You Could Be

3. How To Get There

The Enneagram is a personality model that powerfully describes the core motivations, needs, fears, and desires that drive us to engage in life in predictable ways that can become limiting and get us stuck. The very patterns that helped us cope and survive when we had difficult experiences have over time become rigid, fixed, and automatic, keeping us unconsciously trapped in painful lifestyles and relationship patterns. 

Consider these “stuck points” like muscle knots you develop from poor posture or from an over-reliance on some parts of your body. The tighter the knots, the more painful and out of alignment the rest of your body is, creating other problems and limiting all that you could do.

Unless we catch ourselves in our unconscious habits and then consciously “shift our posture,” we reinforce our knots and become more trapped and in pain.

If you are confused or frustrated from getting stuck in the same dynamics, the Enneagram can help you learn:

  • WHY you do what you do,

  • WHAT your core needs, fears, strengths, stuck spots, and blindspots are,

  • HOW to turn off your autopilot mode and be more responsive, not reactive,

  • HOW to foster new, lasting ways of being.
