Explore an interpersonal neurobiology approach that harnesses the insights of developmental neuroscience to illuminate how early temperament interweaves with attachment experiences in the cultivation of nine personality patterns. Agency, bonding, and certainty are deep motivations that combine with an attentional orientation of inward, outward, and dyadic to form nine personality patterns that shape the developmental pathways of our lives. These patterns mold how we: experience and express emotion, focus our attention and find meaning in life, and even how we interact with others. These nine patterns offer us ways to grow toward wholeness, a lifelong journey.
Inspired by tens of thousands of narratives from the Enneagram personality system, this framework helps us gain insight into how we became who we are and offers practical steps for how we can intentionally open what may have become a prison of personality into a playground of possibility. Discover approaches that can be effectively integrated into your clinical assessment and treatment plans.​
