Why Enneagram in Boston?
Boston's relationship with holistic practice is shaped by its concentration of universities and hospitals. Our students here tend to be researchers, healthcare workers, and educators — people who came to wellness training already capable of evaluating evidence and asking hard questions about scope. Cohort sizes stay small to keep the discussion-driven pedagogy that works in this city.
For students of Enneagram specifically, Boston's scene is a particularly good match: academic and medically literate practitioner community. high bar for evidence and scope of practice. The local cohort runs in venue partners around Cambridge, South End, Brookline, with public transit and parking accessible from across the metro.
Boston applicants are often 35-55, with backgrounds in academia (PhDs in cognitive science, psychology, or neuroscience are surprisingly common), medicine (MDs, NPs, PAs seeking complementary credentials), and education. They ask harder admissions questions than almost any other market, want to read primary sources, and value faculty who can speak honestly about evidence — including its limits. Our Boston cohorts tend to produce graduates who are unusually credible in clinical-adjacent settings.
What you'll be training in.
For a deeper introduction to Enneagram as a practice tradition, see the full program page.
The Enneagram is a personality framework that maps human character into nine interconnected types, each defined by a specific motivational pattern, characteristic strengths and limitations, and a set of healthy and unhealthy expressions. The model also includes wings (the influence of the two adjacent types), instinctual variants (self-preservation, social, sexual), and levels of development (from healthy expression to unhealthy expression within a single type).
What sets the Enneagram apart from most personality frameworks (MBTI, DISC, Big Five) is its depth and developmental structure. Where MBTI tells you what your type is, the Enneagram tells you what your type is, what motivates it, what it does in stress, what it does in growth, what it looks like at its healthiest, and what it looks like when it is struggling. This developmental quality makes it particularly useful for coaches, leaders, and team facilitators — but it also makes it harder to use well. The Enneagram is unusually easy to misuse with quick online tests that flatten people into stereotypes.

When Enneagram cohorts run in Boston.
Boston cohorts adjust around the academic calendar: January and September starts align with university rhythms and produce strong attendance; May cohorts are smaller. Snow rarely cancels classes (the city handles winter well), but the schedule includes contingency days. Cohort meetings typically run on weekends with one weekday evening — many of our students hold university appointments and need flexibility.
