We will delve into the question of “type as temperament” and its shaping by our childhood environment. We see these patterns not as causative of type, but as frequently found patterns that impact adult relationships and self-concepts.

We will look at the ways in which each type learns particular ways of coping with their emotions in an attempt to respond to the demands of their surroundings. We will also examine the ways stress and trauma impact each of the type patterns. This series will be of particular interest and use to those of us in the helping professions as psychotherapists, counselors or coaches.
