One Reason We Are So Effective

To understand one reason the counseling and coaching of Applied Wisdom is so effective, you must first understand Temperament Therapy.

Temperament Therapy has been used since the 1950's, but achieved most of its prominence during development through extensive systematic research with several thousand individuals in the 1980's. It is currently used by thousands of counselors worldwide.

Temperament is defined as - "who God designed you to be or your God given, inborn “scheme” within you that contains your traits, tendencies, needs, strengths, weaknesses, abilities, and the intensity of each.

Temperament contains our unconscious drives that determine why we think and feel the way we do, which explains much of why we do what we do. Our Certified Temperament Counselors will generate a 7-8 page Temperament Analysis Profile which will reveal the details of your inborn temperament. By evaluating your profile with your counselor, we will be able to make you aware of many of your unconscious drives.

There are five temperaments found in three areas (socially, control, and affection). The Certified Temperament Counselors of Applied Wisdom are trained in analyzing your unique temperament, your learned behavior (how your environment has impacted your behavior) and your personality (how you perceive you should behave to cope with your environment).

Temperament therapy is powerful! It does not measure or treat your behavior. Your behavior is determined by a combination of your temperament, learned behavior, and environment. To treat behavior is to treat the symptom, rather than the cause, leaving the root of the problem intact.

At Applied Wisdom we are trained in identifying and correcting the root problems.
