Supporting those who want to understand themselves and others more clearly
Hello to you! I'm Dale Rhodes, a mentor and guide with a private practice focusing on The Enneagram, World Wisdom Traditions and Good Sense since 1998. Not only am I passionate about teaching clients and students the full benefits of understanding Point of View, I am a thrice formally-trained, well-seasoned, full-time professional in the field.
I work well with reflective and creative people who are motivated to learn, grow and change. Whether the content you wish to explore is your own self-understanding, relationships, spiritual growth or finding right livelihood, my clients find that our sessions offer useful practical information as well as meaningful insights that support positive change. If you're trying to be more fully human, more fully yourself, this is a solid method for you--- and accompaniment itself is often worthwhile.
I am available for online sessions for individuals and couples. You may schedule directly using the button above, or you may pre-purchase multiple sessions for discount via the payment page above. Reach out to begin, I will be glad to connect with you. (Email if seeking an evening appt.)

What is good about an interdisciplinary, professionally-led, vibrant community?
I asked this to The I Ching when I started this community over 20 years ago. Here was the summary still guiding today:
"A lake evaporates upward and thus gradually dries up; but when two lakes are joined they do not dry up so readily, for one replenishes the other. It is the same in the field of knowledge. Knowledge should be a refreshing and vitalizing force. It becomes so only through stimulating intercourse with congenial friends with whom one holds discussion and practices application of the truths of life. In this way learning becomes many-sided and takes on a cheerful lightness, whereas there is always something ponderous and one- sided about the learning of the self-taught."
Hexagram 58, The Lake, The Joyous; The I Ching (The Taoist Book of Changes)
