There are 2 options for advanced Enneagram study. Please read below to learn more..
OPTION #1:
ENNEAGRAM & RELATIONSHIPS STUDY GROUP
~~Both Local & Long Distance Options!~~
This interactive and educational Enneagram study group has a special emphasis on Relationships / Couples. If you are in the helping profession and seeking to help others break through challenging relationship patterns, or just someone who wishes to experience more satisfying relationships—then this group is for you!
Via teaching, handouts, case studies and discussion, we will explore the strategies beneath each personality type that often lead to communication barriers, frustration, lack of relationship connection & 
misunderstandings.
This group integrates theories and practices from the Developmental Model (Bader/Pearson) to support and facilitate development and growth for each type.
In this group, we will also:
—Discuss how to apply Gestalt principles to effectively manage personality habits vs. higher self.
–Explore how the defense mechanisms of each type impact effective communication and intimacy, and how to work with it from a developmental standpoint.
— List ways that the partners can best support each type in relationship
— Discuss strengths and limitations that each type brings to communication, conflict resolution and intimacy, and strategies to help each person develop capacities to move beyond them.
— Understand how each type tries to get their needs met, unwittingly creating the trap they are trying to avoid via their communication style, and what to do instead.
— Using a developmental approach, we will discuss how utilizing the growth points of each type can help create the connection & satisfaction that couples truly desire.
If you would like to learn proven strategies to facilitate both individual as well as relationship growth and satisfaction — whether in your work with couples or in your own relationship– then this group is for you!

OPTION #2:
ENNEAGRAM & RELATIONSHIPS SUPPORT GROUP
~~Both Local & Long Distance Options!~~
This Enneagram support group is designed to be a safe platform to understand how your own type shows up in your life, including in relationships. Here you may explore with others your own tendencies, patterns, strengths and challenges, with a special emphasis on evolution, development and growing into your best self. 
This is not a therapy group, but rather a guided support group with like-minded peers, to mutually uplift and offer insight, supporting one another to our highest paths. All participants share in common a commitment to work with others for the purpose of intrapersonal and interpersonal growth and relational insight.
Via teaching as well as group and individual sharing, we will address life challenges via understanding each Type at the personality level.
You will create bold intentions around what you want to step into and be, doing inner work that results in actual changes that affect all of your relationships. Each participant will be given suggestions to practice outside of group, to make our time together most impactful.
If you are ready to release your old habits so that you can grow more into your highest, best self (including in your relationships), this group is for you!
