About Sarah &
Enneagram Tools

Enneagram Coach & Strategist

(She/her) I educate clinicians, coaches, clients, mangers, and business owners about using the Enneagram in therapeutic and workplace settings to build trust, understanding, and maximum self-awareness.

I am passionate about supporting helping professionals feel confident in their skills and what they have to offer their clients.

I also want everyone who is brave enough to seek mental health support to get the relief and change they are wanting as efficiently as possible.

  • Social Worker

    I have 15 years of professional experience walking with people through the hardest parts of life, and it’s an honor every time someone allows me to help

  • Type 6, Wing 5 (6w5)

    I love a good plan, especially if it’s efficient. I believe in no one left behind, and I love collaborative environments. I am a recovered worrier with a daily practice that helps me “go-with-the-flow”

  • Entrepreneur, Multi-business owner

    I was raised in an entrepreneur family, married a successful business leader, and run my own business full-time, so I get why workplace dynamics can make or break a successful business

Helping someone heal from suffering while building self-esteem is my passion

I love efficiency - it makes me really giddy.

Call me a nerd, but I really value processes that are good for time and good for people. I want both, because in my career I’ve seen a lot of suffering and time is the most precious resource we have. You deserve to enjoy as much of your lifetime as possible, no matter what’s on your plate.

I created Enneagram Tools for you to successfully know your value in the world and be able to connect with people in multiple settings - therapy, work, in your relationships, and in your family system. More than once, a client has told me that after the first session of including the Enneagram, they already see things differently (and for the better) and they wish they’d known these ideas sooner.

I know how life-changing it is with my clients and my own life. I’m confident that this will work for you too.

When I stumbled onto the Enneagram at a professional training, I suddenly had new words to describe myself in deeply accurate ways and it instantly improved my self-awareness and my relationships. The more I learned and applied, the better I knew myself and why I was thinking, feeling, and behaving in certain ways.

As a Type 6, I know that I’m a planner, I focus on getting things “right,” and sometimes I get lost in worry and fear. But my personality doesn’t limit or define me. I’m also a mother, a spouse, a small business owner, and a great clinician.

I was surprised at how Enneagram knowledge beautifully bridged the gaps between many popular mental health theories and actual day-to-day experiences.

Once I started sharing the Enneagram with my family and friends, their self-awareness improved too and they began releasing shame and fear from their lives. So naturally, I’ve been finding ways to introduce my clients to the Enneagram and it’s made an incredible difference in how fast they experience growth.

  • "...a more balanced and healthy state"

    “I have really enjoyed learning more about the Enneagram from Sarah, and seeing how that information helps guide parts of our therapy plan and conversations. Learning more about the Enneagram, and specifically, the type I identify with most (type 1), has opened my eyes to ways I naturally respond to situations—both good and bad—and through Sarah’s guidance, we have been able to come up with techniques to help in those situations that align with the values of my type and move toward a more balanced, healthy state. I’ve never truly understood a personality typing system before as much as I have the Enneagram with Sarah’s help. I highly recommend researching and utilizing the Enneagram information in your own life and in therapeutic settings.”

  • "...a game-changer for our marriage"

    “The Enneagram is vastly different than any other personality test I have done. Partnering this information along with Sarah’s Enneagram coaching knowledge has not only been enlightening but helpful to understand my reactions and coping skill habits in my life. More importantly, how it affects my communication and relationships with others. Bringing my husband in on this as well was eye-opening in our marriage. After 30 years together, Sarah helped us to see how our two numbers could communicate better by understanding each other’s numbers. This has been a game-changer for our marriage.”

  • "a fascinating study into me..."

    “Exploring the Enneagram with Sarah has been a fascinating study into me - what motivates me, what I desire, what comes naturally to me, what is difficult for me, and what parts of my profile may prove challenging to my loved ones… I’ve learned a great deal about myself I never understood before.”

  • "...it is okay to feel that way."

    “Sarah has been such a big help to me in understanding the Enneagram and how I can apply it to my daily life. Before working with Sarah, I was only familiar with the Enneagram from hearing about it on a podcast once, taking a test, and seeing the really pretty Instagram graphics that people create about the Enneagram. Sarah helped me to realize that my personality reflects many different Enneagram numbers, which is normal (something I didn't know originally), and that realization helped me immensely. When Sarah and I are discussing a situation that has happened in my daily life and what I felt during that situation, she refers back to my Enneagram number to help me better understand why I felt a certain way during the situation, and even better, that it is okay to feel that way.”
