Derek Fisher Enneagram Coaching

There’s More to You
Than Your Personality

Most of us experience the world through the lens of our personality — our thoughts, emotions, habits, fears and desires. Over time, we develop a sense of who we are and naturally come to believe, this is me.

But what if there is more to who we are than the identity our ego has created?

The Enneagram offers a remarkably insightful way of exploring that question.

The better we understand ourselves,
the more choices we have.

With greater choice comes the opportunity to pause, reflect and choose a different response.

A different way of seeing yourself

The Enneagram helps us recognise the patterns through which our ego operates — the ways we habitually think, feel and respond to the world, often without even realising it.

By becoming more aware of these patterns, we can begin to loosen their grip and create space to experience ourselves differently.

Perhaps the Enneagram is not simply a tool for understanding our personality. Perhaps it can also be a doorway to something deeper — an opportunity to explore what may lie beyond the stories, patterns and defences of the ego.

Explore your patterns with greater awareness

My primary offering is Enneagram coaching, helping you use the Enneagram as a practical tool for understanding yourself and the patterns that shape the way you think, feel, and behave.

My approach is practical, curious, and grounded in everyday life. You do not need to subscribe to any particular philosophy or belief system — simply bring an openness to looking at yourself from a slightly different perspective.

Enneagram Typing Interview

For new clients, I begin with an Enneagram typing interview. Through a structured conversation, we explore your motivations, habits, reactions and ways of seeing the world to identify the Enneagram type that best fits you.

The aim is to help you recognise the patterns that make your type uniquely yours.

It has been said that the Enneagram is not simply a method for putting you in a box, but a tool for understanding the box that your mind has put you in.

Enneagram Coaching

Once your type has been identified, coaching can take you further.

We can explore how your personality operates, what tends to trigger your habitual responses, and how those patterns may influence your relationships, decisions and everyday life.

This is not about trying to change who you are or becoming a different personality.

It’s about developing greater awareness of the automatic habits that can run our lives, giving you more choice in how you respond.

Client Testimonials

  • Working with Derek to explore my Enneagram Type has been incredibly insightful. Even though I have done a lot of self-inquiry and personal work over the years, these sessions have helped me see some of my patterns in a whole new way, particularly around merging, losing myself in relationships and looking outside myself for connection and validation. What I have really appreciated is that Derek did not just tell me about my type, but helpedme recognise those patterns for myself, with warmth, curiosity, and honesty. I am becoming much more aware of when I am abandoning myself, and more able to pause, listen to what is true for me, and choose from a more grounded and authentic place. It has been a really valuable addition to my ongoing journey of self-awareness and freedom, and I am very grateful for the depth, presence and insight Derek brings to the work. 

    Evie, Wales, Kundalini Yoga & Meditation Teacher 

  • I have worked with Derek for a while now, and before meeting him I had never even heard of the Enneagram. I have to say, I was genuinely blown away—not only by the Enneagram itself, but by Derek’s depth of knowledge, insight, and genuine passion for helping people. 

    Derek has an incredible ability to challenge you to go deeper while making you feel supported throughout the process. His patience, guidance, and thoughtful approach have helped me understand myself on a much deeper level, recognising patterns and parts of myself that I had not been fully aware of before. 

    Thank you, Derek, for your time, patience, insight, and for challenging me to look beneath the surface. It has been a genuinely eye-opening and valuable experience, and I would highly recommend working with you. 

    Jeily, Surrey, Transformative Trauma Coach 

  • As someone who is keen to better understand themselves and others, I found my Enneagram sessions with Derek incredibly informative and useful. After years of therapy and studying various modalities that encourage self-awareness and introspection, I was impressed at the level of insight that the Enneagram offers, as well as Derek's excellent knowledge and understanding. He has a fantastic way of explaining concepts to you while helping you to spot things for yourself.  He is a very generous-natured facilitator and wonderful at guiding you to look at more sticky areas of your personality, with all notions of shame or judgement around egoic patterns or habits you may have disappearing as Derek approaches the sessions with kindness, humour, and humility.

  • Working with Derek was a fluid process of uncovering the type-driven patterns that kept me stuck — while simultaneously creating movement toward change and growth. The engagement and integration it invited has been both revealing and lasting. 

    David, Connecticut, Psychotherapist 

  • On day 1 of an Enneagram retreat, I stumbled into the room jetlagged, hungry, and more naïve than I knew. Nevertheless, I had the good fortune or foresight to sit down next to Derek Fisher. We were the only heart types in our cohort, and he literally held my hand through revelations, tears, long chats, and even a bit of dancing. In many conversations since then, he has helped me find my own keys to that elusive virtue of equilibrium that fours are forever seeking. His encouragement and insights have permeated my understanding and use of the Enneagram, and I have also had the privilege of observing some of his own journey into deeper knowledge and awareness. For people who are still trying to identify their yype as well as those farther along their path, this is a coach with the patience, professionalism, and skill to guide you.
