Trauma Informed Care Article

Picture

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.

I highly recommend anyone interested in the Enneagram to study with Dale Rhodes, MA. He is a master teacher and makes the complexity and richness of this system come alive while providing a safe and rigorous group experience.
---Joe Alexander, LCSW


I have been interested in the Enneagram since 2001 and have attended a number of courses for my own personal growth. I wanted to deepen my understanding of the Enneagram as a professional. This course did not disappoint. Dale offers experienced insight that can not be found in books alone. I highly recommend this course.
---Jennifer Poole, M.A.

This class was such a valuable experience on multiple levels. The learning, the connecting, the community experience, the time invested and the people involved in it. Dale's gifts as a remarkable teacher and fellow traveler. A perfect combination!
---Jane Larson, Psy.D


StudioE definitely took my knowledge of the Enneagram to a higher level. I am confident now that I have a solid foundation in both instincts and types and feel confident about presenting the Enneagram to small groups in church settings. Well worth the investment in time and money!
---Jean Martin


StudioE was a transformative experience both personally and professionally. The knowledge, skills, and inspiration gained went way beyond my expectations. Dale is amazing.
---Laura Conklin, M.A.

​
My StudioE experience was incredibly "Life Giving" and opened a new chapter in exploring and discovering my core values, natural strengths, challenges, and how I can be more positive and successful in my decision making as I move forward in my life/Work.
​---Will Wiebe, M.A.
