Coaching with Archetypes​​

 

 

A clear, practical way to understand yourself — and create growth and long lasting change in your life.

 

Archetypes are universal inner patterns that exist in all humans, across cultures and time. They shape how we think, feel, relate, and act. They’re not labels or personality types.


Think of them as inner roles or energies that step forward in different moments of your life.

You don’t “choose” your archetypes — they show themselves through repeated themes and patterns across your life.

​

You already know them, even if you’ve never named them.

They appear as:

​

  • the part of you that steps up and takes responsibility

  • the part that adapts, blends in, or keeps the peace

  • the part that seeks truth, depth, or freedom

  • the part that wants closeness, creativity, or pleasure

  • the part that protects, controls, or avoids risk

​

These patterns repeat — in relationships, work, health, and big life decisions — because they are part of your inner makeup.

​

Archetype-based coaching helps you recognise these inner dynamics, understand their purpose, and work with them consciously — rather than being run by them.

​

It’s deep, practical work— and often unexpectedly fun.

​

Even people who have done years of therapy or personal development often discover new angles, blind spots, and resources through this work.​​​​​​​​​​​

What is your personal Archetype Wheel?

Each person carries a unique combination of archetypes that reflect:

​

  • your core essence

  • your strengths and coping strategies

  • the patterns that repeat across your life

  • the energies you lean on when things get challenging

​

In a series of 60-minute sessions, we identify your personal Archetype Wheel — a map of 12 inner archetypes that are active within you.

​

Some will feel very familiar.
Others may be underdeveloped, suppressed, or running quietly in the background.

Together, these 12 archetypes explain:

​

  • why certain situations keep showing up and what you can learn from them

  • why some choices feel natural — and others exhausting

  • why you may thrive in one area of life but struggle in another

​

Seeing this wheel often brings a sense of recognition: “Oh. That’s been me my whole life.”

 

Once these patterns are visible, they become workable. You gain clarity, choice, and a new way of responding.

Why this approach goes deeper and creates lasting change

Many people come to archetype coaching after having already done therapy, coaching, or years of personal development — and are surprised by how much clarity still emerges.

​

That’s because archetypes offer a transpersonal perspective:
we step back, see the bigger pattern, and understand universal archetypal patterns of being and then understand how they are playing out in your personal life.

​

Instead of asking “What’s wrong with me?”, archetype work asks:

  • What part of me is active here?

  • What is it trying to do for me?

  • What’s missing or out of balance?

​

This often leads to:

  • sudden “aha” moments

  • relief from self-judgment

  • practical shifts that actually stick

  • a deeper sense of meaning and direction

 

Working with archetypes is not a one-off insight.

 

The more you explore them, the more depth they reveal.

 

You start to notice how the different archetypes in your personal wheel come forward in different situations, how they influence one another, and how this interplay and their expression in different phases of your life can be powerful resources and allies.

This work is especially supportive if you want to:

  • find orientation during life or career transitions

  • understand recurring inner conflicts or blocks

  • create meaningful, sustainable personal change

  • improve relationships, health, or boundaries

  • reconnect with purpose, vitality, and inner authority

  • discover inner resources you didn’t know you had

What you’ll take with you

Across a series of 60-minute sessions, we:

​

  • clarify your personal Archetype Wheel

  • understand how your 12 archetypes interact

  • identify which ones need support, expression, or rest

  • identify negative belief patterns of each archetype as it pertains to a particular area of your life

  • translate insight into clear, practical steps for daily life

​​

This work isn’t about becoming someone else.


It’s about understanding and expressing the patterned intelligence and brilliance of who you already are.

If you’ve ever wondered why the same themes keep returning, this is for you.

People often arrive curious — and leave with clarity and a deeper sense of self.

Here’s what one client shared after working with their personal Archetype Wheel:

"I had been looking for a coach for a long time who could help me understand my inner being. Working with Joanna was a game changer. Her deep knowledge of archetypes, combined with a grounded approach to spirituality, helped me access deeper layers of my being. She asked powerful questions and created a safe space where being vulnerable felt natural. Joanna gave me a language to connect with my inner world, bringing clarity and providing tools for personal transformation. I highly recommend working with Joanna, if you’re asking yourself: "Who am I really, deep inside and how can I fulfil my highest potential?"
