ABOUT ME
Supporting people in their personal growth and development has been my passion since the mid-seventies. I’ve learned that we each have a specific way we perceive, understand and interact with ourselves and others, how we see the world and how it affects us. This awareness has created dramatic changes in my life.
My work as a therapist for over twenty-five years, both in the Middle East and the United States, has given me a broader knowledge of the influence cultural, religious, and family backgrounds have on our perceptions. I have been fortunate to offer lectures and workshops to thousands of people worldwide, to co-found a multicultural community in the Middle East for eighteen years and maintain a therapy practice specializing in trauma.
In 1995, I was introduced to the Enneagram, a unique system of understanding personality that describes our individual patterns of how we conceptualize the world and manage our emotions. For many of us, our hearts yearn to know who we are and why we are here, to feel compassion for ourselves and our community, to clarify our communication skills, and enhance our creativity. The Enneagram is an amazing tool of self-discovery and as a well-known Enneagram teacher told me, “You can go with the enneagram as deep as you dare.”
Life coaching using the Enneagram for individuals, couples, and business teams can provide the insight you need to amplify your self-awareness, your understanding of others and energize the creativity in your life.
"We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty."

What is the Enneagram?
We all have beliefs, thoughts, and patterns that keep us stuck. Asking ourselves, “Why do I do that behavior when I know it doesn’t help me?” or “Why can’t I stop feeling the way I do because it hurts,” are questions that so many people ask, feeling frustrated or shut down in their desire to understand themselves and how they operate in the world.
​
The Enneagram is a dynamic model of the human psyche that shows the 9 ways that we get locked into our personalities, believing that is who we are, and gives us compassionate keys for seeing ourselves a new, so we can experience our truest selves. It is not an intellectual theory or a system to rehash your childhood problems, but a vibrant and exciting tool to help move forward and flourish.
​
Learning about your type from a book or a You Tube has its limits. Working with a supportive person who guides you towards a healthier life is rewarding in ways that makes the journey heartfelt and invigorating.

SERVICES
Individual
An individual coaching session can support you to focus on specific aspects of your life. If you are new to the enneagram or a student for years, these sessions start where you are and move forward with amazing precision.
For those new, I send a typing test, but the real understanding comes through my questions, a conversation about how you see yourself and the experiences you have with others. As we go forward, it will become clear which type fits you best, and then we explore how this information shapes your life.
For those who already know their type, you will be deeply moved to feel how quickly we can support your life, to understand how being your specific type has influenced your perception of Self. Blossoming into a healthier version of yourself is a process that brings calm, solidity, and magic.
Couples
Whether you are new or both knowledgeable about the enneagram, working with a coach can offer an objective point of view to support your growth together.
The Enneagram is a wonderful tool to help couples understand each other, to see patterns of communications through new lens, to hear and speak with a renewed respect. Over the years, I have been deeply moved by the simplicity of this approach and its profound impact on bringing greater clarity and strength to each couple.
Team
Supporting teams to better communicate by understanding individual perceptions has a meaningful impact on the effectiveness of the whole. We customize the content of our work to the specific needs of the group, utilizing a wide array of tools through the lens of the Enneagram, tools learned after working with hundreds of corporate teams over the years.

The Enneagram can assist with understanding the strengths and struggles of a team, focusing on how each member communicates, makes decisions, and functions under stress.
TESTIMONIALS
Learning with Bobbi has been amazing! I couldn’t believe that in the first session I understood more about myself, with compassion, than I did working with a therapist for two years. This journey is profound. The Enneagram really focuses in on patterns that I wasn’t aware of consciously, and Bobbi’s insight and support has changed my life.

My partner and I were just curious at first, but after one meeting we were blown away. Married for almost ten years, we thought we knew everything there was to know about each other. Bobbi’s knowledge of relationships, and her awareness of how the Enneagram can support a couple has been incredible.
Mary and John, New York
Bobbi told me that the enneagram can go as deep as I was ready to go. I wasn’t feeling in need of therapy and rehashing my family’s dysfunction, but wanted to gain more insight into who I was, expand my horizons, and boy, did that happen! I feel more at peace with myself than ever before.
