Explore the foundational concepts of the Enneagram of Personality in this introductory webinar designed for mental health professionals. The Enneagram is a model that delineates nine distinct personality types, each characterized by unique motivations, fears, and behavioral patterns. Unlike other profiling tools, the Enneagram delves into the core motivations driving each type's behaviors and attitudes, making it a valuable asset in therapeutic settings. This course provides an overview of the Enneagram's history, its contemporary application, and the preliminary vocabulary essential for understanding its concepts. Participants will gain insights into how identifying one's own or a client's Enneagram type can serve as a starting point for deeper self-exploration and personal growth.
