Enneagram Types in Therapy

[@amyleigh423]

Enneagram 4s do all the work in their therapy sessions 😂 "Thank you for that question. I've already thought extensively about this, let me tell you about my inner complexities while you listen for an hour"

[@halynmiyoko4735]

Exactly this 😩

[@LadieGrey]

Lmao!! So ME!!!🤣🤣

[@niki_singing]

HHAHAHAHHAH ME

[@doopeedoo]

😂

[@EveInTheMachine]

LOL I can totally relate to this. I have an extremely high four wing, and I've always been quite obsessed with figuring out that stuff myself that I really ceased seeing the point in even going to therapy. I do my own crying therapy sessions at home now. 😂

[@teabooksgirl854]

The 9 going off and letting out all her rage has me feeling so seen! ❤️🤣

[@jessiedavis453]

As a 9 and a therapist I 100% approve of this video depiction lol

[@Julia4453]

“I just withdrew into my safe room. That’s what I’ve nicknamed my brain. I could spend all day in there.” 😂 Perfect!

[@caseyfarris8409]

And all the nines everywhere said “ l think I should start seeing a therapist...”

[@KS-cz9qc]

And also said, “This might actually be fun.” 😂

[@kathyhughes8196]

Oh yeah, baby, I've got a therapist! Love it!

[@emilybarker3240]

I’m a nine in therapy and this is hilarious because I went to process resentments that I needed to voice!

[@k9qtea]

I literally just commented that, haha

[@crystalcleara.k.a.missyoko1430]

This really hits home to be honest the moment you realize l need therapy

[@anival9576]

"This bleak, beautiful, dystopian wasteland that is the garden of my soul." That's beautiful--and so true. Who can understand it if I can't?

[@kellisimpkins654]

As a 9 who spent 11 weeks at an 8 week group therapy program before being told, “It’s ok, you’re good, you can go now...”, I approve this message 😂

[@Jana-yd8je]

First I read "As a 9 who spent 11 weeks among 8s"... Was thinking. Good lord!! Why?

[@Crysta1986]

Type 5: "I think I'm going to DIY this" I own about 3 dozen self help books. I have gone back and forth with therapy vs. purchasing workbooks, researching, etc. . I literally received a DBT workbook in the mail today. 😂

[@vailstlchick21]

As a 9 I feel like the rest of the world is getting a glimpse of my inner monologue when the default in public is silence.

[@fckyafeelingz4064]

Haha. 8 Here. Therapy Goal: Gentleness, Tenderness, and Softness. Fml The type 9 impression is SPOT ON!

[@punkitten2456]

I’m a 9 who went to couples therapy with an 8. Both interpretations had moments that seemed a little too spot on! Hilariously well done!

[@matthewaaronallen1598]

The 9! I am realizing how much fun seeing a therapist would be now! To rant to a total stranger about all the things people have done to upset me and let out everything I hold inside would be amazing!

[@punkitten2456]

As a 9 I can vouch for the accuracy of this portrayal. Deciding to go to therapy was the best decision ever and the hour was never long enough. My only regret has been not finding the therapist that I clicked with a decade earlier. I love knowing she is there if I need to return. My sister and closest friends are also privy to this side. Especially in private with some wine. It probably only took thirteen years for the friends to pry that door open. I’m glad they did and then proved I could trust them in the years since. Those that proved otherwise never ever get a hint of what’s behind that door as I smile gently and stand guard.

[@coralynn1135]

Me (a 5w4): Pauses intro to look up "Dodo Verdict." ....Ok, now I know and can proceed with the rest of the video...but I will probably end up down a rabbit hole of research later because of this...LOL ;)

[@LeeannMichellefunny]

Thank you for all the great comments, friends! It looks like Leeann was finally able to nail the 9 (something on which she has been working very hard)! This one was a lot of fun for us so thank you, as always, for your feedback 😘😘

[@milaalaniva775]

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Bravo!

[@expandwithm]

This is awesome, I lovr your videos SO MUCH even though I didn't always resonate with the way 9s were portrayed. (But I loved seeing all the others). So glad you were aware and working to get better at 9s!!!

[@nancydavidson7306]

As a psychotherapist I’m laughing and touched by all of your enneagram re-enactments. Spot on and I’m a 4. Brilliant.

[@angelavis5546]

What you did with the nine in this video... in her insulated safe space... THANK YOU 🙏 ! I have always felt like an imposter nine because of all of that she’s holding back... and I always, I mean *always* use the phrase, “I’m not even exaggerating!”! Brilliant!!

[@aflyingfig]

Yep. I find myself saying that a lot too.

[@EmilyAudrey]

Oh my goodness! I’m so filled with joy! I’m a 9 with a heavy 8 wing and I LOVE what you did with this character! I’ve watched your guys’ videos FOREVER and I can see how much work you’ve put into getting the 9 right! She’s evolved so much! No one else gets it quite right. Thank you!

[@lizardbreathh]

The 9! 😂😂 crying with how accurate that is!

[@aflyingfig]

Me too!

[@cocoa261]

it hurts...

[@Youtubeknowwho]

I love how the four took total control of the session. She could teach the therapist a thing or two about feelings.

[@EllieandGinger]

holy moly...that 9.... Leeann, I know you said why are 9's so freaking hard but you totally nailed it lol

[@meredithbarry5243]

Ohhhh the life of a 9!!! Great job ladies!

[@mrs.manrique7411]

The 9 made me think of my sister when she calls me. The first thing out of her mouth is either, "Don't tell mommy this," or "Am I on speaker phone?"

[@elliebeth09]

I am a 5. This is accurate. 👍

[@ILuvHudson1]

My husband is a 5. I'm a 9. We do therapy together. 😂 I have to stop talking to see if he will say anymore words.

[@elliebeth09]

@@ILuvHudson1 My fiancé is an 8, and I can see a similar dynamic between us that you mention. I’m perfectly fine letting him be the one to share all of his thoughts and feelings during our pre-marital counseling sessions; I sit there and just think my thoughts. 😂

[@NickyStade]

I’m a 9 and literally started going to a professional therapist because they were being paid to be legally bound to keep my stuff secret! 😆 I feel so seen 😅 (and it’s really uncomfortable 🙈😂)

[@halynmiyoko4735]

Type 4. I feel attacked.

[@k9qtea]

As a 9 with fluctuating mental health, this gives me a bit of motivation to look into therapy

[@SammSpangler]

Have you guys done one on the different enneagrams firing someone? My friend and I were talking about this the other day and how I’m an 8 and just would walk in and say “You’re fired. You didn’t do what you were hired for. Leave now” and my friend who is a 9 just wouldn’t show up

[@lng2750]

What's my Enneagram type? I'm a "You know me, just smiling and gaining and losing energy from meeting everyone's needs at the same time" wing "I wanna be the BEST client EVER" 😂❤

[@wanderingsyllogism7002]

Enneagram 5, I showed up to therapy with an outline of my life and list of probable issues. Got told I had a problematic relationship with my mother so I decided to research that on my own. Anyway, this was so accurate, it’s inspired.

[@emnelson4315]

Ha! Relatable. I went to a therapist who said some things I liked and resonated with. I asked her where she learned them and she named a book. I read the book and was like, OK, I no longer need to see the therapist. 😂 5 swings 4 and 6. P.S. I used to be a therapist. Exhausting!! What was my 5 self thinking??? Just because I like to know psychology things doesn’t mean I’m a good fit to be a therapist.

[@annaleighadams]

The nine was spot on. I've honestly felt everything emotion expressed over someone sighing when I ask a small favor! Also, I'm pretty sure I will unleash the beast within if I go to therapy. It might just be the liberation I've been needing.

[@Shayne_T]

I felt the 4, deeply.

[@marishaten7399]

Great video! Leeann is pregnant! Congratulations!

[@queendibz]

As a five this hit too true. I've been avoiding looking for a therapist because I feel like i haven't learned enough about therapy to go. I need more information! 😩 who what when where why and all that jazz

[@yuukinoyuki9064]

I definitely fall into the, "there's no greater high than fixing a problem yourself" mentality 😂

[@emilyrebekah1]

The Seven fidgeting with tissues in therapy is tooo real 😅

[@pjmackall]

Lol@4. But lordie we cry during therapy. 😭😭😭

[@Youtubeknowwho]

Girl yes. So many feelings.

[@Coolman13355]

"That sounds deeply unpleasant. Who would agree to that?"

[@kamilaapetauer]

For the whole video I'm like..I don't understand..and they are exaggeratting..and then 8 comes on and I'm like..yeh that's my hubby in a woman's body..and then my sweet 9 comes on..and I'm like 😂😭😂😭😂 riiight...this is what my last appointment actually looked like..via phone though, but I did sit on the floor and poured my heart out 😂😭

[@kathyhughes8196]

Also a 9 married to an 8! What an insane combo!!

[@kamilaapetauer]

Oh, the 9!! 😅😅😅

The 9 was spot on! I’m a 9 and I have a temper for sure. Like a dormant volcano lol

[@mrs.manrique7411]

That darn dishwasher just can't do the dishes right.

[@LuckyJAmbrose]

OMG! The 9 is so, so perfect! Wow. Absolutely. Oh boy that is dead on. Yep.

[@abigailpickard8647]

Being a two is such a yikes. I hate how accurate it is

[@AlexBobalexRavenclaw]

Ahhh!!! The 9 is liberated!!! 🦅

[@veronicamartinez]

I laughed out loud at the 9 starting with the blanket! As a grad student on my way to be a therapist, I dream of the basket of ultrasoft blankets that my clients can snuggle with. And the rest of it... gold.

[@expandwithm]

That was sooo accurate...Im a 9 and currently wrapped in a blanket as I watched that 😅

[@elisa4620]

Blankets are the best! Blankets save lives!

[@ciarramoody1407]

I'm a 9w1 and this was so accurate. Literally one of the first things my therapist does is hand me a blanket, because she knows I'm gonna reach for it anyway lol. And I will lose my mind if things aren't sorted correctly!

[@leahh8560]

the six is so accurate lol

[@jackies1729]

The 9! ❤️❤️❤️ Feeling so targeted 😆

[@lucydancer5871]

Brilliant, love all of the enneagram clips you create. So spot on and they resonate deeply! I attended a panel yesterday where a Two was describing her terrible experience of having houseguests who did not appreciate all her efforts and had not predicted her own needs as a host - would love to see you create a clip about the types hosting houseguests!

[@butanetorch5386]

8:46 having external stimulation is very helpful for everyone (especially repressed adults) in order to distract ones brain long enough to get out the real issues from behind the barrier. Dont knock stim toys till you try it

[@2SHY222]

That 2 is so accurate. I'm constantly putting others before my self goals

[@kathyforgues6994]

Okay, I have never been to counseling but I could see myself becoming a blubbering mess. Yes, I am a 9😅😂🤣

[@ILuvHudson1]

You're allowed! That's what therapy is for!! (Also a nine)

[@kellyschmidt8626]

I spy the Monument Earrings by Noonday Collection on Leeann!! Way to rock those, girl!!

[@veronicabritanico3712]

7s in therapy CAN sit still. But mostly we bemoan all the things we've started and never finished. Or we rattle off our plans for the future. In either case, an hour is hardly enough. And the action steps prescribed at the end of the session? Tough luck asking us to squeeze that into our 5,000-page to-do list. Love you, Leeann & Michelle! Can't wait to share this video to all my Enneagram buddies...especially the 9s. 😂

[@erinbuxton8438]

Finally someone showed what I am really like at home as a 9. Lol I never understood all the naps and such. I act like this 9 afterwork everyday!

[@MedievalMelanie]

So good! I laughed so hard at the 4, 8, and 9 ones especially.

[@hannahckirk]

STOPPP I’m a 4 & the other day I was like “I should start thinking about my funeral someday.” ....I’m only 24 😭

[@jessymv65]

I’m 27 and I’ve basically planned mine down to the biodegradable urn... I’m a 4 if you couldn’t tell

[@doopeedoo]

Saaaame! I’ve already wrote some things down 😂

[@glampermeg7254]

I'm 37 and already have my full funeral planned, music, location, placement of ashes, poetry read, etc.

[@AlanaL3]

Ok...a 9 has never opened up to me then. 😐 I was curious because everyone was saying how spot on it was.

[@tiffanychildwithin]

I know this video is old so who knows if you'll see this, but as a high 9, I could not relate to this one at all. I could NEVER bring so much conflict into a therapy session. The other videos they do though that 9 was nailed!

[@RubenUzan]

Fabulous! Great actresses, you really managed to get the 9 types little things that they do that makes them who they are. Great video! Thanks

[@heatherbryant4197]

The more I watch these, the more I find myself resonating with the 8, which makes me even more sure I'm a 5! That comment about admitting when I'm wrong but never actually being wrong I have uttered in many arguments. And I've even told men that if they aren't tough/dominant enough, I'll end up being tough on them and treating them like a sub, and I don't want to do that! haha But I guess I had to grow into these behaviors. I wasn't very assertive or confident as a kid. Btw, I always love the 4's dialog. Always so dramatically poetic and beautifully macabre. And it always has me busting up laughing in embarrassment. -- 5w4

[@valentinemux]

I AM DYING! I'm a 9 and that was absolutely hysterical. So accurate.

[@alissandracoffey4692]

Okay.... I feel I'm both Types 2 and 3 in therapy. Especially with "I'm just tired because I'm taking care of everyone else," and "Why is it that my picture doesn't get more likes."

[@uhpluplum]

you girls are really amazing. well done for all this that you do!

[@bodhimartina6985]

This one is such a HOOT!!! God how I love you two. This one made me laugh as I have left the T2 in integration to T4 and I literally laughed hooted out loud at T 4. I'd nodded to the passing T2, but T4 really got me, an insight into this new thinking! T8 is a good one, I have a friend I'm forwarding this to. I have taught the Enneagram for years....T5 was portrayed perfectly. Never been able to understand fully the T6, so this gave me good insight into a friendship with a 6> Then I so loved the angelic T9 loosing it! Yes, finally a little anger and judgement! LOL And HOOT! Thank you for the best laugh this morning!
