About this Episode
A note from Josh: In this episode of "The Counselor’s Chair," presented by Chattanooga Counseling and Consulting, I had the pleasure of speaking with Wesley Nichols, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a deep expertise in Enneagram and EMDR therapy. Wesley brings a unique perspective to the table, combining his professional knowledge with an approachable way of explaining the complexities of personality and personal growth.
Wesley guided us through the origins and history of the Enneagram, shedding light on how this ancient system has evolved into a powerful tool for understanding oneself and others. We explored each of the nine Enneagram types, discussing their core motivations, strengths, and challenges. Wesley offered insights into self-typing methods, helping listeners identify their own type and begin their journey toward greater self-awareness and growth.
​
Our conversation also touched on how Wesley’s platform, Enneagram Chattanooga, serves individuals, couples, and even businesses seeking transformative change through the Enneagram. He shared compelling examples of how understanding these types can improve relationships and foster personal and professional development.
