The Enneagram doesn't tell you who to be.
It shows you who you already are.

A System Built for Real Change

The Enneagram is one of the most powerful self-development systems available. Its name comes from the Greek word for nine ("ennea"), and its symbol reflects that: nine distinct personality types arranged on a circle, connected by lines that reveal how each type relates to the others.

What makes the Enneagram different from other personality frameworks isn't just how it describes you. It shows you why you do what you do and offers a clear, personalized path forward. Your type becomes a map: where you are now, where you tend to get stuck, and where genuine growth is possible.

What is the Enneagram?

How I Work With You

Most Enneagram work begins with one essential question: 
What is my type?

I start every client engagement with a typing interview, using a method developed and refined over decades by my teachers at CP Enneagram Academy, Beatrice Chestnut and Uranio Paes. Rather than relying on an online quiz, this interview process takes your unique story and lived experience into account. The result is a typing that's both accurate and personally meaningful.

Once your type is established, we move into coaching. Together, we identify which aspects of the Enneagram are most relevant to where you are right now: your dominant center of intelligence, how your instinctual patterns are shaping your relationships, or how the deeper motivations of your type are keeping you from what you most want. Session by session, the work grows.

Real change becomes possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • No. Your type is with you from a very young age, and it does not change. You can grow enormously within your type and diversify yourself to other types, but your type remains your “home base” throughout your life. In some cases due to family or social conditioning, individuals can be “mixed-up” with another type, but their underlying type remains fundamentally the same.

  • You can have the characteristics of some other types, especially those connected to your type by lines on the Enneagram, but the core of your personality comes from one type only. I recommend focusing on that more than the other types, as it will make the best use of your valuable time and get the best results.

  • No. Our personalities will tend to idealize some types and demonize some others, but this is a distortion of the basic fact that there are no better or worse types.

  • By understanding your point on the Enneagram and which points you can extend to you get a more complete picture of who you are and how to realize your potential for growth.

  • It can help you clarify underlying motivations and structures for your actions and take action steps accordingly to help overcome frustrating patterns and get the change you desire.

  • I recommend taking one of my typing interviews.

    It requires no previously knowledge of the Enneagram and will give you a lot of information about your likely type as well as the reasons why it’s likely you are that type.

    Only you can finally settle on knowing what your type is, but I can clarify the most likely options significantly and quickly.
