My preferences are for INFJ, and my website, INFJorINFP.com is designed to help people determine which of those patterns is their innate preference.
It doesn't work very well, interestingly, sometimes because the visitor doesn't match *either* of those patterns (there are 14 other possibiliities, of course), or because they don't have an impartial second party to help them sort it out.
As Jung wrote, "One is always in the dark about one's own personality. One needs others to get to know oneself." Our egos often fool us about who we really are in the world.
Establishing the pattern is just the beginning, of course. Now we get to notice where our ego is holding us back from what we want to do in life.
With respect to your challenge, and without delving into the type piece, the obvious coaching questions are these:
How do you want it to be?
What's stopping you?
I'll invite you to have fun chewing on those two inquiries. :-)

creation myth of our ancestors. mine was for norse mythology which talks
about the goddess frigg. I felt a connection to her, thus this picture.
Hm, how does it "influence" my presence on the web, and my coaching work? Wow, how long have you got?
First of all, I started those websites nearly ten years ago, I think. So as far back as that, I had an intuitive inkling that it would be of interest to people. This was waaay before blog technology was available, and I felt really irritated when blog technology appeared and here I had developed so much stuff in html. And now I don't have the patience to go back and revise it all.
How it affects my coaching? Well, the dominant modal type that attends my coaching school (CTI -- Coaches Training Institute) are people with the ENFP pattern. And the CTI model for coaching follows a pretty ENFP-savvy structure" (if I dare use that term). We utilize values-based coaching questions, we "blurt" our intuition, we "dance" with what shows up, and we follow the "client's agenda." It's hard as hell for me -- and yet I do believe it's the most effective coaching style around. So I've had to train myself to blurt, dance with what happens, let go of my agenda -- all of which run contrary to my natural way of being.
My favorite form of coaching is doing parts work, which I've now trademarked "Coactive Imagination." It's like Active Imagination being facilitated by another person, so it allows an individual to really invest themselves in experiencing their parts.
As a typologist, I typically take people through an assessment-free self-discovery process -- or else I run my models in my mind to get a read on somebody's type pattern as fast as possible. Then I look for particular archetypes to show up when we move into Coactive Imagination work and invite them forward.
Anyway, this gives you some hints about my work -- although I doubt I've "answered" the question, since at the core, it is unanswerable. I'm firmly convinced we don't have a type -- type has us -- so it's impossible to separate the two.
Please let me know how this lands?

Type Insights is me and mine, all mine.
I'm also the creator of the sites www.INFJ.com, and INFJorINFP.com, and VirtualTypeWorkshops.com -- where I'm now selling a product on typology.
Whew!
The Jung Center in Asheville posted a link to an article on Facebook today, and I had to sign up in order to read it. So I did.
I'm happy enough about it, since I've started down the Jungian path pretty firmly anyway. I've studied the work of Dr. John Beebe for over ten years, and have read Murray Stein, Daryl Sharp, von Franz, Hillman, and others. Struggling with C.A. Meier right now. Oh! And I'm friendly with Carol Pearson, who's now a bigshot at Pacifica. :-)
In the next years or so I hope to start a Masters/Doctorate program, once I decide on the best all-around fit for me.
My coaching seems to encroach into Jungian principles so often than I think I am basically offering Jungian concepts in a coaching format. :-)
I hope this answers your questions? If not, please let me know.

I am just starting to learn about active imagination. What has drawn me to Jung and addiction is the correspondence between him an Bill Wilson. I have seen the effectiveness in group therapy. My goal is to utilize practices such as dream work and active imagination. Currently, I am working on my PhD in Depth Psychology and looking for employment also. The experience I have is from a substance abuse practicum.
Good to hear from you,
Ryan
