No. Many clients do not know their type, and some people arrive with a type identification that later proves incomplete. I use the Enneagram when it helps reveal motivations and protective patterns. It is not a test you need to pass or an identity you need to adopt.
No. I have particular experience and interest in the Achiever pattern, including Enneagram Type Three, but I work with people of different types and backgrounds. The central question is whether my approach is relevant to the situation you want to address.
We may explore your possible type when it is useful, but I do not present an informal impression as a formal diagnosis or certainty. Enneagram typing requires attention to underlying motivation, not only visible behaviour. The purpose is to increase awareness, not place you in a fixed category.
Coaching focuses on awareness, development, choices and actions in your present life. Therapy may involve the assessment and treatment of psychological symptoms, trauma and mental-health conditions. There can be overlap in the subjects discussed, but coaching is not a substitute for psychotherapy, psychiatric care or crisis support. When your needs fall outside the scope of coaching, I may recommend clinical support.
No, but you need a reason for seeking support. Sometimes the first part of coaching is clarifying what you actually want, particularly when you have spent years following external expectations or adapting to other people.
My recommended starting process is eight sessions over approximately three months. This provides enough time to observe patterns between sessions, practise new responses and integrate what emerges. We review the process before deciding whether further work would be useful.
I generally begin with a structured coaching process rather than isolated sessions, since recurring patterns are rarely changed through one conversation. A focused single consultation may be possible for previous clients or a clearly defined issue — this can be discussed during the introductory conversation.
No. Forgiveness is not required, imposed or treated as proof of progress. The process focuses on expressing your experience, separating compassion from responsibility and establishing a clearer internal boundary.
No. The symbolic release concerns an unhealthy role, obligation, expectation or emotional attachment. Any decision about contact or external boundaries remains yours and should be considered in the context of your actual circumstances.
It can explore family and intergenerational patterns, particularly learned roles, emotional responsibilities and beliefs. I do not claim that one session heals a family line or permanently removes inherited trauma. The work concerns your internal relationship to the pattern and the choices available to you now.
Yes, when it is relevant. Some clients complete the intensive as part of a broader coaching process. Others use it as a focused standalone package. Not every coaching issue requires an emotional-release process.
I treat coaching conversations and client information as confidential within professional, ethical and legal limits. The practical limits of confidentiality are explained before the engagement begins.
Yes. Sessions are available online internationally. In-person sessions may be available in Mauritius.
Yes. Coaching is available in English and French. You may also move between the two languages when that helps you express an experience more accurately.
