What is Temperament Therapy?
Temperament therapy is an evidence-informed therapeutic model that emphasizes the understanding and application of an individual’s inherent temperament to support psychological health and personal, spiritual development.
By systematically identifying temperament traits and behavioral patterns, this approach facilitates greater self-awareness and insight into both adaptive strengths and potential areas of difficulty. The process fosters emotional resilience and equips individuals with practical strategies for managing their responses to internal and external stressors.
Through individualized interventions, individuals learn to regulate their emotional landscape, enhance interpersonal functioning, and improve overall quality of life. Creation Temperament Therapy ultimately empowers individuals to integrate their authentic temperament into daily living, promoting long-term balance, fulfillment, and psychological and spiritual well-being.

“Rev. Dr. McGee brings a great deal of knowledge and insight into the sessions. Those assets provide him with a skill to identify the root of an issue. He also has abundant grace and patience; things that can be comforting and encouraging. He is non-judgmental. This provides a comforting environment to be vulnerable. He truly is a friend to the seeker.”
“The APS Profile System was incredibly accurate in describing me. The way that Pastor has used this to address the issues in my relationships is something that has taken other counselors weeks to discover.”
“I was amazed at how quickly Pastor McGee was able to understand how I process emotions, when I struggle to put them into words myself.”
